NO KICKY NO TICKY–MURPHY, IDAHO–2/22 / 2014

LOOP ~ 35 MILES , BUT HIGH DOSES OF FUN

RIDERS – BRIAN , JOHN, JILL , JOHN

WE TOOK OFF FROM THE TRAIL HEAD TO RIDE SOME ROCK CRAWLING SECTIONS THAT THE JEEPS USE.
THE FIRST ONE , BRIAN WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO GOT UP. I’LL HAVE TO TRY AGAIN NEXT WEEK.

WE THEN HEADED OFF TO RIDE SOME STUFF I RODE WITH SHAN LAST WEEK.
COULDN’T FIND IT , BUT DID FIND THIS NICE LITTLE CANYON.

AFTER WANDERING AROUND IN SEARCH OF MORE LEDGES WE FOUND THIS ROCKY WASH THAT WAS FUN.



HAD SEVERAL NICE LEDGES TO CLIMB UP.


LUNCH STOP ON TOP.
WE THEN MADE OUR WAY TO ANOTHER WASH & THE ROAD DOWN TO SKATE BOARD.

ON THE WAY BACK FROM SKATE BOARD WE DROPPED INTO THIS WASH

WHICH EVENTUALLY FED INTO THIS TIGHT WASH

BRIAN & I WERE GOING TO RIDE BACK UP THE TIGHT STUFF. AFTER THE FIRST SET OF ROCKS , BRIAN’S KICK STARTER WAS SPINNING OF THE SHAFT.  HAD TO  TURN AROUND SINCE HE HAD TO BUMP START THE REST OF THE RIDE.
