- Foresthill OHV Trail #6 - The Good Stuff!
Riding a 2019 KTM xc-w TPI on 6/9/19.
Trail #6 is the most difficult trail at Foresthill. We road it counter clockwise on this ride. We staged at China Wall and all said and done it's about 22 miles to hit the loop and get you back to the truck. We had 7 guys with us on this ride and it took about 3 hours. We had one down tree covering the bridge crossing. We did our part with our hand saws and cut it down and out of the way. This took up about 30 minutes of the time to ride the trail.
See you on the trails!
Damn you got some balls for riding that 👍
I love Foresthill, I was just there today with my kid, but this trail is way beyond my skill level
I'm traumatized. Just completed this trail in 6 hours! I fell and cartwheeled 25 feet into the stream. Hit my head a handful of times. I'm 5’6 so everything is magnified. My confidence is shot after this ride. Some sections are so narrow. My handlebar smacked the trees often. The pegs and my boots get bashed constantly. I'm 53 too old for this shit.
Sounds like an awesome ride!
Some of that looked gnarly
80% knarly....no time to relax on this one. Best to bring a change of underwear if you are over sixty. lol
Well done man !
Matt. Cole. Can. Ride.
Straight beast every time he throws a leg over that 300
OMG. Some of the switch-back turns are scary.
The golden states trail is there. Scary. I believe it forks off 6. Ends up at the bottom of kitty hawk road. Well hill it's dirt and steep
damn, that trail has gotten gnarly. I haven't ridden there in a long time. The trail wasn't so rocky then but slow going still in areas where both my brother's bike and mine were pissin' steam.
I love trail six just don't ride it alone.... Great video but no video does it justice...good stuff!
No clue why I've never ridden forest Hill looks killer man
Bro great video !! I was just up there last week. Home sweet home.
Solid ! Gopros dont do these trails justice. Thats some good stuff there ...
Thanks man! I'd have to agree.... the GoPro does not do this trail justice!
Gnar gnar. Just the way we like it !
Nice ride with some excellent single track and very cool sign behind you - so true! Cheers!
I don’t understand how you remember to get out of there, lol. Beautiful footage.
Nice video. Have you every took the Devil’s Thumb trail at around the halfway point? I think it close to a 2,000 ft drop to a suspension bride. It’s pretty gnarly too.
I've ridden that part of it. Fun, tons of switchbacks though
Nice area! I'll have to check out that part of my backyard 👍👍
Oh hell no..
Thanks for showing us this trail though as there is no way I'd be able to ride that.
Gotta love this stuff man!
Sweet trail. I did not expect a bridge crossing.
I subscribed. look forward to your next video!
daaaaym!
Gnarliest 18 mile loop I’ve ever done. Tried it both ways. Clockwise is harder 😮
That's awesome! We hit it both ways in the same day one time. That was a ride!
8:15 I think he put his back tire on the log and cuts it in half 😄
man thats a fun looking trail I gotta get my ass over there
Is OHV the Ohio Valley trails? It looks like your in the Ohio valley with all the hills but I’ve never seen anything resembling the trails your on unless your not exactly by me in location.
The trail is at Foresthill in Nor Cal
Absolutely insane...
sweet video!
Doesn’t trail 6 go to China wall
Are there any logging roads around there where there's some flat dirt i can ride on? Im not big on trail riding and im new to the sport. Im from Sac.
There's a few dirt/gravel roads in the sugar pine/forresthill OHV area. Finning Mill Road is pretty smooth and only a mile or so from the Sugar Pine Staging area. Or take any of the other non paved roads you can find on the map. Just stay off the paved roads. www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_MEDIA/stelprdb5301105.pdf
Try prairie city its super beginner friendly, lots of easy flat trails and roads.
There’s a Ranger Station in Foresthill on the way in that has maps that show the forest roads.
Sometimes I will carry a tube patch kit, but if the stem is torn you’re out of luck. I always carry large zip ties. They don’t weigh much and you can put them around your flat tire to keep it on the rim to get you out.
Are you going clockwise or counterclockwise on this trail?
Scariest single track yet
tree killed the bridge for now
I've rode 6 it wasnt all that fun I was out of shape and hadn't been on the bike for almost a year . In my prime I think it would have been much more fun . I'm just old and fat now and it sucks lol
HAHA! It's never to late to get in shape! I love the slow technical challenging stuff but it kicks my ass too!
@@mattrides707 Im getting there . I'll be back out there on my new to me KTM rippin it up again any day . I'm ready to do some of that Joe Rogan TRT to get some of that youthfullness back .lol.
this is part of china wall right? that’s trail 6?
Stay uberfocused on the trail
Is six more difficult than five
Are there good trails for quads in that area?
No. Only single track not yet ruined by quads. Go to Pismo.
Didn't show the abandoned, seized up husky on the side of the cliff past the bridge...
Is it still there a vid would be great!
Nice work on the tree. Are any of the trails out there safe to ride alone in your opinion?
Yes, but I would not ride trail #6 alone. In general I personally never try to ride alone. Its easy to find people to ride with, with Social media. Best of luck👍
nmnmnm trail 1 pretty much most of the green trails for an adult
What's the adress?
How do you get your bike out if it dies?
That happened to a couple of riders I know a couple of years ago. The 300 died at about the 6:10 mark in the video that’s about the halfway mark. The two of them had to get out on one bike, and then I had to piggyback the guy who left his bike the next day. Watch the first 6 minutes and imagine having someone on the back. It was a 300 with Brimbo Brakes, but was pretty scary in some places like coming down to that first bridge. But I love that place. Usually ride it clockwise.
@@jeffswanson5097 I was thinking a rider could have a tool kit, a nylon pull, or have a tow rope so another rider can tow you out.
@@jeffswanson5097 I'm also thinking people have made trailers for motorcycles. You could have a mono trailer to tow another bike out with ...
Dam that is some shit lol
BRAP you didnt ride that KTM like a 2 stroke you rode like a 4 stroke rider.
Thats because you have zero idea of what its like to ride an off road motorcycle in the real world.Stick to your computer game dreamworld and all will be well😀
@@nickg2431 ha take parts off your bike before ride ... Weight to horsepower changes ... Have fun
@@nickg2431But I stand at what I said , 2 stroke need high rev and load ,, they are not 4 strokes which have oil and reservoirs so they can destroy themselves that's all
This is not the place for selling your services!!!! Duuuuuude!!!!
