Dirtbiking Kennedy Meadows: June 2022 Ride Report

Pete — Thu, 30 Jun 2022 14:23:41 +0000

Every summer when the Vegas heat starts cranking up, we head up to the Sierras to ride the cool mountain trails of Kennedy Meadows. It has become one of my favorite places to ride. With miles and miles of flowy singletrack, you can easily spend a few days here and hit something new every day. Since I started going in 2019, I’ve gotten to know the place pretty well. So since we had 2 full days to...

Adventure Ride Report: Goldpoint, Nevada

Pete — Thu, 26 Apr 2018 16:41:16 +0000

Every spring our riding group, My2Wheels.com, gets together in the little town of Goldpoint, NV to camp and ride. It’s a great place to base camp because there are several old sites to see and places to ride in every direction within a couple hundred miles.

Well the day has finally come to take the new ’17 KTM 500 EXC-F out for it’s maiden voyage. Since I was already headed out to Dumont Dunes this weekend, I figured it would be a perfect time to break it in. Although sand is no way to break in a bike, there are plenty of trails around the outside of the dunes that would let me get some easy miles in and do a few heat cycles. I got it warmed up and...

Mammoth Area Dual Sport Ride

Pete — Sat, 03 Sep 2016 18:54:02 +0000

It had been a few weeks since my last adventure and I was itching to explore and ride a new area that’s not 100+ degrees. I’ve never been up to Mammoth Lakes area so I figured I’d squeeze in a trip before summer comes to an end. Mammoth has tons of riding for motorcycles and ATVs as well as Mammoth Bike Park for some downhill mountain biking. Although the area is a little pricey as far as hotels...
