Thanks! How do you mount it to the bars?

that's dead center of trail #90. it's about 1 mile from bottom to top and around 900 feet up. the pic i took with the "danger" sign was right at the peak, where the 4 trail intersection is.

if you use google earth, go back to the 11-8-13 image. it was taken in fall, you can see the trail much better.
thanks, i looked at it on google maps. sooo neat. need to do something like that one of these days. did you have to pay for access? is it public? any cool place like that in texas is usually behind a locked ranch gate and 8 foot deer fence.

thank you.
yes, hatfield mccoy trail passes are $26 for residents and $50 for out of state, for a full year. i think there are around 800 miles of HM trails. or, there are 100 times as many free "outlaw" trails running all through here. with a trail pass, you have access to all of them. thousands of miles worth...

you can legally ride right into all the local towns, on pretty much anything you want, the police will just wave at you.

Leo, i have found more often than not that it is rider ability, not the machine that gets you up the hill... i have seen people fail at hill climbs that i get up with my 07 roketa supermoto (with shinko street tires on ninja 250 rims) ability to control the machine is where its all at...
