Salut from Kearney Ontario..Spring Ride 2013

[dougspcs]

Well guys, today was the much awaited Spring ATV Rally in Kearney Ontario..

My brother and I came up on Thursday afternoon and were met by snow..a last thaw here has made for an interesting mix of trail conditions.

As always lots of mud, rock and river crossing..but this year a considerable amount of snow on the trail as well.

Again this year we were the only trikers!! We sure do earn respect from the four wheel riders when they see how capable these machine are and able to keep up with them undermost conditions.

A video or two of our day...

These are raw from the camera and uploaded my laptop in the cabin we are staying in..so they are not very refined.

Well we made it back alive..a great ride at usual.

I took the 350x and did some riding on the trails Friday, before event day.

However opted to take the BR on the big ride..the huge volume of other machines chopped the trail up in sections so bad that I believe it would have been a near impossible feat to complete on the manual clutch machine. Particularly in the deep bush sections where the snow was so deep I had to get off and 'assist' the machine thru by pulling on the rack and feathering the throttle..

Anyway more pics and vids to follow once I have a change to check thru the 14ish hours of recording between my brother's and my GoPro..

That is the only thing about these cameras..they even record the boring stuff.

But here's few pics..
