Putting the 24 TE300 to the test in the rain forest

Looks awesome dude.

I assume this was over on the peninsula south of Port Angeles/Lake Crescent? Just recently got back into dirt riding (have been on a supermoto the last 5 years but now have a vehicle to haul bikes) and bought my wife her first ever bike and have been trying to find some good trails in the area. I'm in Everett and when I was younger growing up in Snohomish, there were so many great riding areas within like a 45 minute drive but they all seem to have been closed down, or maybe I'm just out of the loop. Would love to see a video of great trails within like an hour and a half drive of Snohomish county if possible. Great video! Just found your channel today and have watched a bit of it on break at work. Awesome stuff man!

I’d recommend Reiter/Gold Bar for more beginner friendly trails, and Walker valley for intermediate/advanced trails. (I’ve never ridden in the peninsula ;) Tons of good trails in sno/skag counties)

@@WASemiHardEnduro Oh, Reiter is still open? It has been hard for me to get a concrete answer on that topic. Haha! Probably just way different from what I remember it being with the upper pit switch backs going up the mountain. That was my go-to spot for years. Will definitely revisit it! I'll need to see if pipeline up near Duvall is still open. That was always a solid spot. I guess it's time to adventure over to Skagit County and find some other great spots. Thanks! I assumed this was the actual rain forest over on the peninsula, but now that I think about it, they probably don't let people ride in the Olympic national forest. 😅🤣 It's kind of all rain forests in our backyard, though.

Hell yeah this is my idea of fun. Where do I sign up? I want to ride trails like this. There's nothing like this where I'm at in my part of the US. I want elevation change and beautiful mountain scenery. I have to make a trip out to Washington one of these days to try and look for these places.

How do you like the 24 TE gearbox compared to the old close ratio TX gearbox?

[@WASemiHardEnduro]

Overall I like it. It’s not as tightly-spaced as the old TX/XC gearbox, but the spacing on the new box is well thought-out I think. You can have a decently low first gear AND good top speed with the stock gearing.

[@MuttTJ]

Yes

[@ognightrider8730]
