Sick ride, elevation and COVID weren't enough to stop you! Heard from a few riders now that Duluth helps prepare for the gnarly trails out west, those trails looked chunky and you can't beat those views!
Who knows when I’ll get back, had to get a ride in, COVID be damned! If you’re ever in the area it’s worth a ride for sure, super fun descending and yeah great views. Many more trails in the area too!
At least the downhills! 😂 Not sure if it was the Covid, the elevation, or the steep grade of the climbs (probably a combination), but there was a lot of walking upwards!
Ooof you were so close to where I learned to mountain bike up at Curt Gowdy State Park in Wyoming! Fort Collins has a lot of cool riding! Just down the road (or trail) from there is devil's backbone which is also a blast! Glad you had a good time on the Front Range it is a really cool area!
My brother and I biked Curt Gowdy about 6 years ago, great place, and what a place to learn to mountain bike! I remember Cliffhanger being really cool, and Canyons was a bear!!
@Tkolbo_ yeah we rode that side too! Mostly blue trails, some black. We camped there for a couple nights. South Causeway Campground. First big MTB trip I ever went on 🤘 Would love to get back there!
@@robonbikes so rad! If you get back and go up the hill to happy Jack they just completed a project where you can ride from the trails at the summit all the way down to Laramie on single track like 12 miles of singletrack in one direction mostly downhill! Ofcourse then you have to climb 2k+ feet back up haha!

Awesome riding, Rob! I would say the Duluth trails really help you prepare for riding out west. Easy peasy…right? 😎🤙

@@robonbikes I think you’re right. It was a combination of everything.

@@robonbikes if you ever get back there you need to ride the other side where stone temple, gold watch, gold rush, el alto, and skin and bones is!

@Tkolbo_ That’s awesome (not the climbing bit)!
