Biking, hiking, motorcycling, snowboarding, exploring Colorado. Live in Colorado Springs, Colorado (United States) but I explore the whole state. 300 days of sunshine and so many places to see in the Rocky Mountains. Utah, Colorado, Montana, New Mexico...all amazing place to hike, bike, dirt bike. I also try to do lots of GoPro videos and hope you enjoy them. Favorite location in Colorado include: Crested Butte (Blue Lake), Breckenridge, CottonWood Pass. I ride a 2021 Husqvarna TE250i enduro bike and also a 2017 KTM 250 EXC-F (KTM Motorcycle). I also used to ride road bikes and have owned Honda F2 & 3, Honda 900RR, Ducati Monsters. I use DaVinci Resolve for my editing with iMac computers. GoPro cameras for outdoor video and Canon cameras for portrait photography. I worked as a professional photographer.
I love photography, video editing, computers, information technology, extreme sports, reading, exploring this amazing world. Check out all my videos!
Looks like a fun trail. Side note, if you’re heading to horseshoe in the next month or so holler at me. I’ve been wanting to try that one again. It’s been a minute since I rode the high country
One of my fave trails in Sargents...you better really like rocks and roots and lots of them...GoPro doesn't do this trail justice...it always beats the hell out of me...love that place!
All of us know this can happen in the blink of an eye. Most times when it happens to me I sit there on the trail and ask myself how the hell did I do that???!!! Part of the risk of riding dirt bikes, but I’ll never stop! Heal up!
Thanks for clearing the trees looked like a fun ride also love river crossings they are to deep the ones I know of right now with the last bit of run off
Hey bro, great video's. I've been watching all your Taylor Park area vids the last few days (also subscribed) as myself and some buds have a trip planned the end of July. We're all intermediates to varying degrees but are based in Florida so sugar sand and swamps is what we're used to. Some of your vids I'm thinking "yeah that looks fun and doable" and some are "nope, nah, no way" (steep narrow, rocky uphills, narrow, steep sidehills where a 2 stroke is best) We all have 4 strokes. Small D/S. Beta's KTM's, Honda's. Can you point me in the right direction for some easier single track? Is there a resource that rates the trails? Some of us are staying in Pitkin, I might primitive camp in TP north of the Trading Post. I know this is a big ask, I'll understand if you got better things to do. TIA.
Hey thanks for watching the vids! I dont do tons of riding in TP area but do ride the stuff around Pitkin/Sargents. Let me look at a trail map and think through your ask and respond later. I would also suggest you join the Singletrack Squids facebook group (dirt biking in Colorado, but group memebers are from everywhere). The admin (brian) is a FL guy and rides that area in Pitkin alot as do other riders in the group. The group is super supportive and if you pose the same question you asked me, you would sure get some great responses and recommendations on routes.
@@tigersdl65 So hot creek to start of willow mtn (at the intersection of Big Lake/Willow mtn trail) is all clear, so you can ride the full trail. Big Lake trail had a two trees too big for me to move down and the small portion of Willow mtn i was on had one large tree down, but you could go over. The only portion i rode of Willow mtn was maybe like 3/4 of a mile on the trail past Big Lake.
@@CoolEyeColorado thank you sir! Coming from Alabama and trying to find something that I haven't ridden before. Your extensive video library helps out.
And that’s how fast a crash can happen. I had a similar crash on Timberline trail in the Taylor Park area that nearly took out my left eye with a fallen dead tree branch, bloody mess of my face. Submerged my new Beta going from the top of Monarch to Sargents crossing the beaver dam. Great areas to ride though!
Yup. I think i was paying attention more to guy in front of me than trail (which is good usually), but my front tire clipped that rock and threw me around. The bruise now after 4 days is terrible purple and black on my hip/stomach where it threw me into tree.
specifically in the area where this ride is, you can do some dispersed on road 101 outside Columbine Gulch TH, but not with trailers or stuff. more of truck camping. Also some camping right next to river by Hayden Creek TH outside Coaldale
Sure thing man. If you are in Colorado, be sure to join the SingleTrack Squids group on Facebook to see what people are riding and get out with others.
Was nice to see a larger pan being used to cook a full pan of food on a tiny burner stove. The little burner did really well and of course the Jackery 500 Explorer did its job perfectly 👏.
Always interested in small stoves for car camping reviews. I think your pan is too big for that cook top. I use an 8” skillet to cook camping for 1 sometimes 2 people.
