- After a beautiful mountain road ride to the Trading Post, we grabbed a bite to eat at the Nugget Cafe and hit the trails on a search for single track.
We arrived at the trailhead and started off up the mountain battling rocks, roots, and everything that Colorado could throw at us.
This was by far my favorite trail from our Colorado trip, it was a nice challenge but didn't completely break you.
Stay tuned for more!

That looked friggin exhausting. Don't sell yourself short, your great on those rough trails. I had forearm pump and 3 flat tires just watching!
Thank you Shane! It was a workout for sure but I loved every second of it.

This is why I want a dirt bike so I can see all this amazing stuff and ride with my friends!
Loved to see your enthusiasm for the area and scenery. For those of us who live here in Colorado it's too easy to take it for granted. Nice looking ride, super fun!
That was something I thought of often, it just wouldn't feel the same if I lived there. Thanks for watching!
Graham Jarvis called and said he wants his skills back 😂 that’s some good riding bro
Far from it but much appreciated! I am hooked on this type of riding though.
Great video and you added some wisdom of "we all prefer the tight technical slow stuff, rather than the open two-way fast-paced stuff just so much more room to get hurt badly" So it's hard to believe that I have been enjoying this sport since I was 15 and still enjoying this type of riding going on 53 years on the dirt! Gives you a reason to live to ride and stay healthy by staying disciplined to do the right thing in every respect in life. The modern 300 cc bikes make me a better rider than I am and it's ridden by about every professional hard enduro rider for a reason. Keep'em coming~
This looks like so much fun. Thank you for this channel. I didn't know life could be this good. This is motivation.
Looks so fun, I have ridden tracks since I was a kid, Now I want to try some trails!!
Get out there and get it!
I was just on that trail 2 weeks before you, so much fun. I hit that exact root and slid out right where you did as well and said "I hate roots". great time in CO. Great video!
That's crazy!! Roots are my arch-nemesis .. Thank you!
Caught me to...
Yeah! There ya go buddy, now that is what Colorado single track is all about, man! I love that kind of riding, can't wait until the end of September so I can go back up there!
I am already itching to get back!
Originally from WI and have been dirt biking the mtns of CO for 2 decades. At altitude there are a couple things vitally important. The weather can change from warm to freezing or snow in a couple of hours. Bring a large day pack with warm clothes/gloves/hat. Always expect to stay the night so research and bring survival gear. Also, altitude fogs the brain, creates fatigue, and disorientation. Crashes are more likely. And finally, bring and drink tons of water. Thats the short version. All the best.
Taylor park is one of my favorite places in Colorado. Great fly fishing up the road and great trails. Thanks for the video!
Wow, this really opened my eyes to this part of CO. Yep, sign me up! Great video.
Awesome! Thank you!
I'm gonna experience this Someday. Shit looks hella fun 🤙🤙
Has your someday happened yet?
It's 100x better irl! Keep this one high on your priority list 🤙
I am so close to joining in! Been watching videos for months now. Im currently researching KTM bikes locally but will first try to reach the local enduro community and have them point me in the right direction. Good luck man! Hope it turns out great for both of us
timberline! nice
What a great video. And I agree with you on the logs, mud, rocks roots cross creeks, top speed 25. That's it, tomorrow going to the mountains of Tennessee.
Thank you Robin! Slow, steady, and technical, where the real skill develops!
I did that exact trail last summer! I love CO, can't wait to get back up there and do some riding.
That's the gentle side of Taylor park
I'm digging the 2 stroke
God I would just die to be able to spend a day riding up there in that beautiful country
It makes me smile when a flatland indian like you go to the hills, I mean the real hills, and got exited. :-) :-) :-)
And never, NEVER forget ... there are countries on this planet, where such activities, specially in a National Park, are absolutly unthinkable and stricly forbidden.
So enjoy your self. That's the stuff from where the unforgettable memories come from.
You don't have to go to another country, just come to PA. There's so much land that could be ridden on but all you see is "POSTED:NO TRESPASSING" signs all over the place. This state is so backwards with their stupid laws.
The hills feel like home to me! Blessed to have had this experience. Thanks for the comment!
I love single track!
Good content.
Colorado is tough riding but you’re really on the frontier of where humanity has taken hold and it shows. Beautiful place and its worth giving up everything to get to.
Great channel
Thank you!
best trail of the trip
Killer ride!
Video looks great! Lovin' it.
Thanks so much!
Love colorado trail riding🖒🖒
You and me both!
Dude I’ve been riding pavement my whole lift and just got a ktm. I live in Colorado, love watching this video. Gets me excited to eat shit and learn haha
It's a good thing you spent all that time putting them upgrades on to help keep the bike from braking. Can you imagine having to push it out of there
Absolutely! I am more than happy with the investments.
Trail 414. A Colorado classic
Good to know!
I love being Colorado native
Bro this video motivates me to buy an enduro love it bro
Man, fun video. I'm lucky enough to live about 3hrs from Taylor Park and I've ridden all over that area. I never get bored riding out there. Timberline trail, the trail up from Dinner Station, they are all killer.
Looks like so much fun! Can’t wait to get back on the trails this year!
Looks awesome man! I grew up in Colorado and I miss those trails! I live in Utah now so I get a mix of the high alpine and the desert which can be fun. You’re next trip our west has to be southern Utah to ride the red rock!
Also, that bike sounds incredible with the lectern. Honestly that’s my dream set up hopefully one day I can afford something like that!
I will let you know when I make it out there!! Thanks for the support👊🏻
I grew up in CB in the Gunnison valley and me and my buddy’s loved going dirt biking and snowmobiling at Taylor. If you come back you gotta go out brush creek it has the best trails around.
I love living in Colorado
Heaven on earth!
This video gives me even more motivation to move west and buy an enduro bike
That looks awesome
It was!
bad ass trials
As a coloradoian my self, this is my most beautiful place and most fun Planck to live like I do. I recommend coming here it’s very awesome people!!!!
It sure is, can't wait to get back out there!
Dam hella rocky! Great video man
looks amazing. but pretty technical. definitely can't be scared of heights hahaha.
Very technical! There were a few oh sh** moments but we all made it out in one piece for the most part.
You were killing it on those rocky climbs! I was in Vail Colorado and noticed the same thing ,everyone was in shape.
Thank you! I have been to Vail several times snowboarding, that place is amazing..
Literally just rode Taylor Park for 6 days. Loved it
You need to watch riding planet Earth. Makes this looks like warming up
Waowww..
Great 👍👍👍

Stumbled across one of your older videos the other day. Didn't realize Wayne was basically your riding home in Ohio. Ours too! Maybe we'll run into you one day down there. Glad I came across your videos, love it. Colorado looks beautiful!
Welcome aboard! Thanks for the support Nick.
Just now seeing this video. I had the exact same thing happen on my Beta. Brand new bike and went with some friends to Norwood, CO and rode trails. The very first day in the first trail my clutch lever reservoir emptied itself 7 miles in the mountains. It was a fun experience though. Beautiful trails and scenery. Way better trails than the Midwest!
And one more treasured riding area is disclosed to the masses.
Taylor is on ALL the OHV books and websites !
Little tip when you get stuck in those smaller ruts and smaller rocks pop your clutch and pull it back in with a little acceleration in between and you can pull yourself over easier
Great video thanks. Been ridding that area for nearly 40 years, was there just last summer. Looks like maybe you hit Timber Line or Star? 2 of my favorite trails beside those over on the Cement Creek side.
One request, when you see mining relics out there, especially when with a crowd of non-dirt bikers there, we resist the urge to ride through them. Mining is our heritage here in Colorado, we're fighting hard enough to keep these trails open, don't need to give ammunition to the enviro 'close it down' lunatics. Now you know why they call them the 'Rocky Mountains'. Nice ride.
Man y’all gotta stand up while riding, my ass hurts just watching haha! Taylor park is some of my favorite riding I’ve ever done
Lol that looked easy as F, i just took my 7 year old for his first time ever ridding up rougher stuff then that on a bike that was too big for him. Looks fun though, would love to ride those trails.
Two buddies and myself rode this trail a couple years ago. It’s awesome but I was a little glad when it was over :-)
@4:06, had a guy in our group riding an ancient XR650L who laid the bike over and my GoPro caught his last remaining mirror exploding into a couple hundred pieces. Timberline is a beast.
That's crazy!! RIP ol' Honda.
There's an unbelievable amount of rocks there.
it is the rocky mountains
I have ridden the Taylor Park area about five times using Tin Cup and Hancock passes for my entry and exit to the park. Nice to have a fuel stop and the ladies at the Nugget cafe. I'm not a big fan of the park over all, however there are days one can ride to Aspen or
Or Creste Butte and beyond. I rode a 1996 Honda XR400R never lost a clutch, plug, tire or parts missing. Set up as street legal machine. It didn't have the start button, however it was not an issue to restart. I did notice you were having a bit of a time remaining on the trail, practice practice and more practice. Enjoyed your video
Thank you for your comments!! Blessed to have experienced this and I look forward to coming back.
Awesome place!
Star trail was always good along with lily pond. You definitely have to have some skills hitting some of the tougher trails there. Good job. 👊🏻
Thank you!!
I've done star trail both ways and the side closest to Italian creek is tough for sure. Dead man's gulch is a killer drop and watch out for that big slab on doctors Park. It's covered in slime and will take you out. Been riding up on crusted butte and Taylor park sides. Most amazing riding I've done. But you better bring your bag of skill and determination.
juss give er da beans!
Always!
Wonder what it looks like covered in snow ❄
Even more beautiful!
Love Timberline
Fantastic trail!
Looks awesome dude, I wanna do this so bad! HArd to watch sometimes with the camera shake though. Keep it up!
Awesome! Just awesome! I would travel there just for this trail!!! Talking with a riding buddy this weekend, they were there same time or close to when you were! Taylor Park, did the Flag Mtn. Etc. Small world! You may have seen them! Beta 300 like your buddies, old GasGas, KTM 500, WR450
Thanks! And that is awesome, I saw all of those bikes so I'm assuming it was them.. That's crazy!
Just sold my WR yesterday 😢. I’ll ride along with these videos until the replacement shows up! Might be time for some 2smoke in my life🤷🏻♂️
We always camped on Italian creek or at a cabin at the trading post!
Nice!!
Live in CO, been single track riding at Taylor park probably 5 or 6 times now, never knew there was a trail behind that cabin 😂
Far to say tanner has come along way been eith u for a few years now bro loved it wen u was team red only ahhha keep it up im still here u got me bro love from britain u.k
Much love!🙏🏻
That’s a freaking tough looking trail. I ride a 690 bc I like the wide open long haul rides. But this looks like fun. I’ve done a little bit of hard single track like this on the 690 and it’s doable but definitely a workout. That’s a great area too, been there once on a long multi day ride. Great area.
You should go to hatfield mccoys trails in west virginia and go to rock house trailhead fun rinding there and bunch more to ride as well there too! Colorado is so damned beautiful and awsome riding terain as well! Also hear about some good single track in Idaho. Wish I could be there riding with ya! And deff sounds like you had a blast
I would love to! Idaho is definitely on the list.
Welcome to Colorado bud
The amount of times bro didn't fall is immense
Livin on the edge
Could definitely see me out there someday
Well worth the trip!
Great vid
For your first trip here you did great on that technical stuff. I took a hard spill Wednesday on the Captain Jack trail. Front wheel hit a rock and kicked left sending me to the ground. The Fox body armor did the job, but my shoulder is sore! Happened in a split second.
Thank you!! Body armor is a must..
You’re at my windows Home Screen 😂
Just don't break down...you'll be bear bait!🤣
You aren't wrong!
Have a good ol giggly time😂
I am new, seemed like the Georgia riding I do is way more technical up at Iron Mountain, then they said " we are at 11K alitude and 200 miles in." lol , that changes things.
Yeah was definitely the most gnarly riding I've done so far!
Hey man, I go to school in Gunnison and ride at harman rocks all the time. Next time you come around, I’d love to show you the hard trails and camping at harmans. Definitely the move if you’re on a budget
Sam Druck Let’s do it!!
Attention Deficit check out some of my videos for trails around there. Easily 3-5 hours of riding on trails without much crossing over
Are you still in Gunnison? I was planning a trip out that way this summer
This part looked a little smoother.
We are a little healthier here in Colorado :) .....We were just out in Taylor park in July 2020. Lots of good trails. Best ones for us were Star trail and I really loved going up on top of Mt Tilton trail....so beautiful up there. Awesome trail down to Crystal Peak trail. Check out my video on Mt Tilton and check those trails out next time you are out in CO. Cheers!
For sure! Star trail was awesome, I am in love with your state and will be back often.
Subbed, love the ride.
1:25 ''they got gas here, which is nice, I can fill up the tesla and the bikes here'' 🤣🤣🤣
I’m a loner but I travel and want to do trail blog let me know if I can hook up with some small group rides / meetups somehow
“Fill up the Tesla”
Too many rocks = No fun Been there done that, beautiful scenery. Now riding the continental divide trail around Breckenridge thats fun fun fun. . and challenges your riding skills...But rocks kinda suck lack luster.Hope you have a babr good kidney belt...
Come check out the alder bench trail in South Fork Co
What kind of mic are you using? Sounds great
Looks awesome! Do you by chance have a link to this trail? Just move out here and would love to check it out!
NEVER piss off the assembly guys!!
sick! do you happen to know the names of the trails?
that looks to be timberline trail if you like that go up star trail down the road from timber line
About time ,some decent tracks....But a long transport to the trails .Cant you trailer closer so you don't have to do so many tar miles?
Our camp spot was prime and we really didn't expect to be on the road for that long..
What are you doing for fuel on these long trips? Are you carrying oil and mixing it in the bike's tank?
Looks like a great time! Hate cameras don’t show elevation.
They never do it justice!
That is why I like to look back.
Did i hear you say "Wayne" at the end? As in Ohio? How often do you trip out west?
You guys rocked it! Me and buddy will be riding Colorado this summer. Looking for some dual track and single track trails. This looks GREAT but I did not catch the trail name or where your at. Do you mind sharing location so we can check it out?
Did you guys make it out there?
I'm staying in Fraser, CO starting this Sat July 3. Can you recommend a dirtbike rental company nearby? I can't seem to find any within 2 hrs of Fraser. Great vid and nice riding! A+ audio quality! thanks!
