anyone ever ride the trail from the Lake to Crown King? if you havent you should cause it's a lot of fun. anyways me and a friend went about a 2 week ago and i rolled my quad. nothing happened to me suprisingly since i bailed off onto rocks, and nothing really happened to my bike. it was a lot of fun. well there is this one fairly difficult section. you have to rock crawl and it is really fun. i have done it before but this time i didnt. you have to put 2 wheels on 2 rocks(one front wheel one rear) and then it's easy after that. well i got 2 wheels on each rock then my front wheel on the right side slide off. that made my bike start tipping sideways, so i put my foot out to stop it since i had my boots on. i stopped it from tipping sideways but then i felt the front start coming over so i bailed. i have a $400 light setup on my handle bars, it has a steel bar wrapped around the 2 lights. when my bike rolled it landed on that bar stopping it from rolluing all the way down the hill yet alone over me. now when i got that setup my parents HATED it, now i think they might love it icon_twisted.gif dude.gif. so thats how it happened, and all that happened was the bar got a couple dents in it and my plastic cover on my tach came off. it was a great dauy of riding. i just wanted to show off my bike... upside down.
SHOCKER
Lol, that sucks.

Throwinrox and I went out to McCain Valley not too long ago and there are many trails taht you really have to climb rocks, it really messes up the rims and it isnt very fun. Well its ok, but it would be better if i was on a ute climbing the rocks.

This trial you speak of. I understand it had to deal with Rodney King, but who is this Crown you speak of.


Yea its a fun ride, can be quite challenging depending on the weather and road conditions.

I have done this trail in my dodge 1500 and it beat the hell out of us. Great trail though, lots of easy spots with lots of not so easy spots. All day adventure for sure
