So I finally got to ride the infamous 5 Miles Of Hell in Utah! This has been a bucket list trail for me for years. Was it as gnarly as everyone makes it out to be? I don't think so. BUT...it certainly keeps you on your toes and was so much fun to ride! The thing about this trail is that there are definitely some intimidating features but the amount of traction you have on the rocks is incredible. This makes some really crazy looking climbs a little easier than they look. We took our time, enjoyed the beautiful views, and tried all the different lines on the tougher sections for fun. I hope you guys enjoy the footage!

Thank you! I hope you're doing well too ☺️. I've got my fingers crossed for this thing to blow over soon so I can get back to teaching riding clinics and then come down to Utah again for some more fun!

Told ya last year always bring gps or compass at least when your in Moab or Utah it all looks same and noone brings enough water..

@biketothetop 4 года назад

Meg, nice work! I was chuckling when I heard you express anxiety and worrying about doing this ride. I knew it would be a piece of cake for you. I was surprised that everybody was trying to spot you when you took a harder line early on at the 1st big challenge section-- a no brainer for you. Yes, the trees are all very stiff. When in the desert, I always say the plants are never your friend. They are always nasty whether it's a cactus or a tree...wood is stiff, dry, pokey, and hard. Thanks for sharing.

PNW Enduro Thanks Greg! I’m glad too! I’m really sad we didn’t get to do our Utah adventure though... Hopefully we can do it soon!

@roostinrooster5776 4 года назад

Meg, your awesome. I love riding with you, you have so much passion for the ride that you do so well. Thank you for all that you do and all that you share. 8~ ) (edit) riding with you POV

@garrykennedy5484 3 года назад

I gotta say.. You ride better than any man I've ridden with over this kind of terrain. You have great finesse. The guys I've ridden with would never get through this trail. I had to ride a guys 450 XL out of a canyon after he broke his clutch handle twice. He couldn't believe I did it while he rode my 400 EX Quad out of there at Sunflower Mine, AZ. LOL WOW he sucked. While I enjoyed the challenge of getting his no clutch bike out of there. I'm glad it was a 4 stroke engine though. LOL

yep, I did it last year on a whim .... California wildfire smoke ran me off and I ended up in Utah at 5moh .... I struggled mainly because I was riding alone and realized the implications of a bad fall but love Utah and riding there. You are an awesome rider regardless of gender.

Nice riding Megs. You’ve got what it takes for sure, especially considering a dab in this kinda terrain is a reach for you! I feel for you short riders, but it sure makes you good on balance and keeping your feet on your bike. 👍🏻

@megs_braap 4 года назад

Yes, it's definitely a trail where you'd want to go with one other person at least. Just in case something goes wrong out there.

@AdamDoesDirtbikes 3 года назад

Was there the other day and you make a lot of the sections look easy! Sweet deal at 9:15! did you do the whole trail?

Dang Megs that's why you have diesel arms your arms an but checks has to be sore after this ride, your brave. Your awesome

@ChadPrey 3 года назад

Lots of first gear work and amazing clutch control. Did you run a gummy tire? Seemed like you had a lot of traction.

I haven't seen very many videos of Megs riding this type of terrain. How did she get so good on this stuff?

@BackcountryLife 4 года назад

Well done. 5MOH isn't as bad as people make it out to be, however its a really cool and fun trail to ride. Glad you made down here to ride it.

@megs_braap 4 года назад

Thanks! Yeah it was a great time for sure. I was worried at first because I've heard so many horror stories about this trail being so tough. But you're right, it's really not super tough because the rock is so grippy. If the rock was slippery, that would be a whole different story.

@BackcountryLife 4 года назад

@@megs_braap Yeah the first time I rode it I was scared of it being way too tough but its actually a really fun trail with a few technical sections. Its such a crazy landscape that I think that's whats more impressive than the actual trail.

Awesome stuff Meg, looks like my idea of enduro nirvana. Got to say, how the hell do you navigate and follow a trail, looks like there isn’t one.

@megs_braap 4 года назад

The only reason that I knew where to go was because I was following someone who'd ridden the trail before haha. It's definitely hard to tell where the trail goes sometimes.

@jeffreydurante2cyclecycles337 2 года назад

@@megs_braap Agreed !! Those paint marks don't cut it ! If it was me leading , I would probably get lost and only way they would find me would be the circling vultures. P.S. Whats up with the bare arms ?? How many band aids did it take to repair the scrapes from the desert trees ? :o)

@premix3663 4 года назад

Do people have to change the jetting or oil mixture for slow rides like this? i have never done long slower rides like this but when i do short stuff my bike will get loaded up a bit maybe even foul a plug. i just recently got a lectron carb so trying to get that tuned in correctly so far so good.

@jonellwanger7258 4 года назад

Premix Utah change your Jetting, sometimes it’s as easy as moving the clip up on the needle jet so it sits lower. Smaller pilot jet as well maybe.

@jonellwanger7258 4 года назад

Also depends on the bike. The carb changes I suggested are what did me good on my 91 kx500 in the picture. I’m in Colorado, and ride down in he city, and high up in the mountains. No jet change unless it’s cold ass weather. Never had a fouling problem, always started up, first couple kicks.

It looks like the concept of going slower to go fast really pays off here🤘🤠 hey I see there's more than one hardcore chick on this ride😍 KOOL I got a taste of this type of riding in Dominican..small sections and was relieved to get to the roads for a break. RESPECT🤙
