Fun ride! Large tree. The San Jo Smiley’s Sitka Spruce in Holberg on Vancouver Island is 77.8 meters tall, 255’4”. You’ll have to try n check it out next time you’re on the island. Enjoyed this one. I’d like to do this GripTwister sometime.

That section between Brinnon and Mt Walker is one of my favorite areas to ride on the eastern side of the Olympics. You described the smell of the area perfectly, and it does feel like Endor! I love it. There are some good viewpoints off the beaten path, and you do have to do some bushwhacking or backtracking to get to some. I live so close and it just dawned on me that I rode over there 0 times this year. Another great video :)

Did that trip solo and had quite an adventure. Got a ticket for being on a closed route as they were herding mountain goats down from the top. That may have been your turnaround also mine wasn't labeled as well. Then limped into town to have a tire changed out. But the coast side (I went clockwise) and the inland side were awesome!

I know this ride was 4yrs ago, but would you recommend riding the Mazourka Cyn loop N-S or S-N?
@fortheloveofknobs
@fortheloveofknobs Ай бұрын
The intended direction is S-N. There are some very steep downhills that become a serious challenge going up on big bikes. Probably a piece of cake on a small bike with a good rider.
@brentswartzentruber5565
@brentswartzentruber5565 Ай бұрын
@@fortheloveofknobs Yeah big bike. S-N it is. Would you say that holds true on Lippicott Pass....better going downhill? Looks pretty sketchy going down. Sometimes it's easier going downhill but crashing can be much worse. Thanks!
@fortheloveofknobs
@fortheloveofknobs Ай бұрын
Lippincott is much more challenging going up due to the step up boulders you have to get over. Much easier to roll down the step downs than going up. That said, if you're an expert rider it shouldn't be a big deal. Intermediate riders will find Lippincott extremely challenging going up and challenging going down.

Did this ride in 23 with a friend, what a blast. After forks gets a bit less epic, but picks back up around the Quinault area. Depending on when you go it's hard to get a camp site around the lake, but a really wicked camp ground a bit further in called Graves Creek. I did the ride on a DR350, that final stretch along the southern routes def a bear for my gas tank, luckily had a friend to siphon off of. How did the KTM 350 hold up for gas? Guess I might find out in a later part! The worst part of the ride for when we did it was the sheer number of amazing views, at some point you don't even stop for em! Comment edit: Seeing you guys stopped at Sequim for the night, I hope!!!! in part 2 you guys made it up to Deerpark Campground and Hurricane Ridge, think they might not officially be on the route, but worth a trip even if you gotta drive back up here.

Hi! i turned 51, no wife, no kids, all my friends are with their families, so im pretty much on my own. When my cat died I fell into deep sadness and still havent recovered fully, but that is because ive been bottling everything up for decades and have tp somehow pay the price now. I did remember I liked motorcycles, so I did the smallest license last year and got a 125. Riding does help a little. I have to do a lot more, but also have to take this in tiny steps. All whats good to you and thank you for sharing and showing there is light in the end.
