| I sure would like another try at Chadwick, maybe someone who has some knowledge of the trails this time could be out guide. My family and I are willing to go back. Anyone want to lead us ATV riders?
Think Iam going to do some maintenance this coming weekend, get the ATV's ready to ride.

| It's usually just a spur of the moment mid week decision to go down one weekend for me anyways. I'll let you know when it may be Rick and perhaps we can "Get-R-Done". |

| I've been down there 4 times since I started riding again back in '08. I'm definitely still learning the place, but I recognize a few landmarks and trails now when I go. I wouldn't make for a good guide, that's for sure. haha The trails aren't as organized and categorized as you might expect in most spots. The trail maps look nice, but really they don't represent the difficulty levels all that well. If you stick to the main trails that make big loops on the trail maps, like 101 and 113, they'll take you around on good rides and won't get you into too much trouble. Stay away from the shorter, offchute trails that you see on the map if you didn't bring your rock climbing gear. lol |

| 101,113 big loops got it. Now if I only will remember it when I go this next time. They told me this last time I went that they were all really difficult to ride, that all were Black Diamond. Been there done that as for the rock climbing. I dont remember which one we went down but OH Boy was it a difficult ride. Thanks for the advice Bike Junkie.

| Couldn't agree with you more Bryan, It all depends on how you feel at the moment and if you are up for a challenge. We got clear down on the South West corner in the bottom of a creek bed and then took the Black Diamond hill up and over the crest. Needless to say, it cost a new front brake lever for my buddie. That wasn't the worst part though, had to come back down with only being able to get two fingers on the lever....Oh Boy! |
