High Ridge On Hero Dirt
An unexpected rain postponed our morning ride by an hour, August 18th 2025. Chris and I were rewarded for our patience with trails of hero dirt. A treat after months of dry, loose, tractionless scratch. We warmed up with High Ridge. Red Mountain Rush to follow.

Bean Peaks July 27th 2024. Here’s our first run of the day. Hub 4 all the way down to hub 1 Cool Beans. A little pedaly here and there but mostly green down to the bottom. There were a couple of techy rollers along the way but both had ride arounds. Lots of fun!

Captured some good video from this Tuesday 5/11/2024. It’s staying light longer each day. No need for headlights on High Ridge. I should have let Brad tow me through the gap jump but I got scared. Never a bad run down High Ridge.

Another beautiful day at Hawes Sunday March 3rd 2024. Hitting up Red Mountain Rush with the Dragon Lady. New features on upper Rush. Going to check them out more next time. As for the young rider who crashed, he was pretty shaken up but no major injuries. Both Regina and I have clipped bars there too, makes for quite a spectator crash.

Out riding one of the green trails at Hawes with Regina and Pop October 7th 2023. Not as exciting as Rush or High Ridge but a great spin…minus the headwind.

So you will always be my hero. Keep up the fight and keep the skinny side down! Because it hurts when you hit the dirt at our ages specially, mine.

    OK Mike . Tight twisty trails are still my favorite. Short cuts ,Strava lines and side hits (fun as some are) ruin a lot of that for me, the builders and even the trail. Keep Singletrack single.

    Planning to come out to Sunrise in a week. Do you think a trail bike 120/130mm would do or should I rent a mid-travel 140/150mm travel bike?

      I’m running trail geometry 140/120 on the green and blue trails. Maybe more if you’re hitting the blacks and reds.
