Stop by parkers kawasaki next time I'll go rip with u

Are you attempting again this year? I’m riding this for the first time this year. I have a few questions. You seem to highlight the fun trails. Are you editing out a lot of the two track and placement? How much of the 200miles are service roads and pavement? Thanks!

Did you find out anything more about the Oliver?

A vegas favorite. The rock crawling/hard enduro route is taking the creak on the left at 3:24 all the way to the base of the mountain. It zig-zags back and forth across the forest road.

Man, all the sand and tight squeezes gives me anxiety. I don't have the skills for that on my big ol DR650. Awesome to watch though. Love the videos!

Dang, bro. Nice job. You got me all excited to go back!

Good job mr. Hannon.

Cool place, a bit above my skill level these days.. thanks for sharing

Was just out there two weeks ago. The First year i did the crux a few years ago I made it almost all the way up. This year I was riding with a fractured wrist so i took the easy side hill route up crux with help from my riding group. Fun trail.

This is one of my bucket list trails. Luckily I'm on the western slope of Colorado so I can hopefully get out to it with some ease

What a great trail!

Curious, which light switch are you running on the left?

Another great video! Going back up in a couple weeks to ride..

Did this last year - pretty good time! WHISTLE DICK!

I did the Las Vegas 300 ride last year which was a Hoover to Pahrump loop and that was nothing but rocks. I had written off Nevada riding but this looks awesome. I’ll have to try this ride, thanks for posting 👍✌️

I had a great time, rode a few new trails. Looks like the work on Empy falls trail, made it safer and easier. Looking forward to next year. Up here now weather is perfect..Great Video. Thanks for sharing.

Good stuff been watching ur content for a while. You passed up me and my buddies at the 36:10 part. We’ll be at the bb200.

Awesome ride! Thanks for sharing it with us!

First; was that really as fun as it looked? Seconded; from the video I'd give that route aboput a 4 -5 rating on the ON X scale. Was that about correct? Third; How do you find out about this kind of events? are they a AMA List. thing, local Club event, or? Looked like great ride.

Man, i really dislike getting stuck behind side by sides. It messes with your flow.

I enjoyed every second of this ride. I didn't have to put in one piece of gear. Thanks

Would be awesome to ride with you guys someday! New to the Vegas area, but trails look awesome! Thanks for the video.

Had a fun ride out there this weekend. I like Nelson, it has a good mix of terrain, some I like some I don't.... Some of those hill climbs don't look so steep on camera. Maybe I will see you in Caliente this weekend. Thanks for sharing..

I share my plans with family and friends when I go alone. My cell phone and bike can be gps tracked separately with an optimus tracker installed on the bike. And finally i have an ACR PLB-400 for a last resort. one push of a button and someone will find me. I might not like the bill but they will get me. I use the same stuff out on the ocean plus 2 marine radios with gps built in. Keep it as safe as you can.

Every solo rider should invest in a garmin In Reach Mini w/ subscription. You can be tracked by a signifact other at all times, plus you can text,get weather reports,and more plus it hooks up to the app on your phone for even more functionality.

Great info in this video. As a solo rider 95% of the time, I have found my anxiety to be my biggest hurdle. Alot of times being in remote areas here in CO alone triggers strong anxiety/panic at moments. The negative thoughts tend to momentarily race and it can really throw me off. Im working through it each time I find myself in these situations. Id have to imagine others can feel similar in certain lonely situations. As you covered, being prepared for all but the worst of scenarios is huge in all regards.

I enjoy my solo rides immensely. You're the hero of your own life in a time when we are making constant comparisons in social media. When it's just you, there are no comparisons.

Too bad we don’t have a big platform to say we’re gonna be riding here this day and anybody can join.

just went for a 1:30 ride felt great but forgot to record

Just like you say, If I were to wait for a riding partner to go riding with, I'd never go riding. I don't have one, but I've been thinking that a Garmin InReach would be a good thing to have along. I bring a basic GPS, a trail tool kit and of course always carry lots of water. Bike maintenance goes without saying, but I'm always amazed by how many people ignore it. I put a large capacity fuel tank on pretty much every trail bike I ride. Even with that I've ran out of gas a few times before making it all the way back to the truck.

About 50% of my riding is by myself. It’s either that or sit at home.

one wheel drive beats four wheel drive every time!! Ahh Ha hahahaha!!!

Yep, that is how you get better. If you and your bike survive!!!!

Wish you wouldn't give out all the local trail info, they are getting so overused and over run. There goes the neighborhood..

One of the things I've discovered, is that folks on 4x4 never look in those mirrors or around them. it's always a crap shout with them. BTW, you sounded just like I die on my last trip to CO.😃

All 5 Parts are great.

Hey Tim. Cool videos. Was wondering if you have ever heard of "Fasst Impact Moto Pegs & Fasst Flex handlebars ? At least worth looking at. Would for sure make a difference on those rocky trails. The handlebars caused me to not have to stop as often to shake my hands out. The pegs are the really grippy and absorb vibration. Again, awesome videos. Hoping to get to ride these trails in the Taylor Park area this year or next. I started riding dirt bikes (trails only, not motocross) at age 62. Will be 68 this year. Lewis

Dam fence wire...... I almost went but it was just starting to rain at my house. Ran into the couple from Texas out at Nelson and they said it was perfect, go figure...lol. great video but, the sound was a little weird. thanks for sharing

Do the handlebars have threads on the ends for the hand guards?

You should give Agate Creek to Monarch Divide Trail north to Aspen(?) trail a ride. Great loop. Agate Creek will test your water crossing skills….!

I've driven past this trailhead a million times and never noticed it. Is it listed on CO-Trex or ___? Appreciate watching you tame it down and yielding to sprocket-heads and hikers, we need more of that here in Colorado. As not "all sprocket-heads in CO are cool". At least the group throwing rocks at my son and I after arguing in front of a carsonite sign posting motorcycles and bicycles are allowed at a trailhead. I still go out of my way to share the trails here peacefully. It will take all of us fighting together to keep these trails open to the public.

Not a good idea giving these trails away like this your gana ruin it for everyone

Should checkout Kennedy Meadows in California. It's in the Sierra Nevada. Great trail riding and plenty of trails. Has everything ranging from easy to hard.

I use that same technique on switchbacks.

Any tips for me, as I'd like to try this as my 1st long distance, off road journey? I'm planning to buy a new-ish DR650, as my other has seen better days, and I'm curious what sort of protection and options I should definitely have on the bike? Also, what sort of GPS do you use?

Hope this is still open spring 24

Love your full trail videos...I ride 500EXC w a Rekluse, makes those tech rock sections so much easier!!!

Just moved to vegas how do I get here?

Rocky enough for ya ? Looks a lot like Oregon riding 😎🇺🇸
