Hawk on Singletrack in Utah mountains

I’ve had my hawk for 350 miles now, and decided to take it out on some real dirt bike trails for the first time yesterday. I have years of experience street riding motorcycles, and years of mountain bike experience, but I’d never driven a motorcycle on singletrack til now.
Drove the roads an hour from my house to the trails in American Fork Canyon, Utah. Due to a road closure, the easier trails I wanted to try weren’t very accessible, I had to throw myself right into some harder trails just to get up to the easier trails.
Although extremely tiring and challenging for me, the ride was amazing and the hawk handled my abuse like a champ! Multiple stream crossings, super steep rocky hill climbs, and a couple of spills. There was a log that had fallen across the trail and I had to get the bike over it twice. On the way back I tripped and the hawk fell and landed upside down on the log and I had to lift it to get it over. Even through all of that the only damage was to the mirror that I probably should’ve taken off anyways. I wish I got some pictures on the more intense parts of the ride but I was to focused on completing them haha.Name:  DA181DEF-AC8C-45F1-8B7B-4D6020F783BF.jpeg
