Just so it's clear, Chaingang and Walian are definately not suitable for beginners yet. Passing thru Chaingang, you are riding along a slope, tilted in the wrong direction...with nothing but the abyss next to you. No Way even a small SxS will pass thru without a change of underwear! Walian is heavil...

On Saturday John, Greg, Mark, Dean and I, packed up all our trial fixup gear and did the BIG loop up Weaver thru Dax, Chehalis, Chaingang, and out via Walian, then cut over to Hale loop, back over the bridge and home via Simms connector. What a ride! We did a lot of fixups along the way, and while i...

I think Greg just meant it was the best ride he's been on this year?.. :cheesygrin: And yeah it was certainly a fun ride, especially up Walian, over the new bridge and down Hale...sure hope we can keep that open over the winter! Actually, after that epic "Grand Tour" before Christmas; A ride around ...

I only took one picture. As John says, we were so busy trying to cut and dig our way out of that little nightmare, taking pics was the last thing on our minds.

The trails are an absolute wreck!..huge washouts everywhere...cutt...

We will be cutting the planking to length this Saturday at Kims place in Yarrow, 10am start...if all goes well Cal will pick up the load on Sunday morning and we'll install the bridge deck. If you would like to help out, send me a pm or post here and I will get you the details. Should be about a 2 h...

But then I might have gotten some of that icky wet snow...or even mud!..on my pristine machine...
Not to mention the sweating.... And hey, I quite enjoyed watching Mike struggle up that last hill!

So??...how did it go? I took the kids to Victoria yesterday visiting family....so missed going with you guys.

Of course you know that some will take that as a challenge hmmm?....especially Erin " The Dominator" , who probably dug that hole...and DID make it through. ( after about 30 tries..) I think the shear weight of mud she was covered in probably helped a lot...lol.
