The new section of trail at Emmitsburg is honestly a little harder than I meant to make it. It was supposed to be doable for a noob but its kinda not, especially on a wet day.
But it would probably be really good for a trials noob. Some pretty tight corners for dirtbikes. Lots of rocks under leaves , smaller logs, etc…

FYI, Sam’s UltraBee has a 60 tooth rear sprocket. It feels pretty good to me. Ive ridden it a couple times now.

Stephen and I had an electric bike day.

All in all a nice spring day, though both of us are already missing the cooler 40’s and 50’s winter weather.

Stephen did some testing w/ a new controller on his Ultra Bee. I rode it a little. Feels pretty nice. On the stock bike the fastest “sport” mode is difficult to use as it breaks traction too easily. I ride pretty much everything in the middle mode. I struggled a little on one of the really big hills while Stephen could wheelie up no problem.

A fun day w/ quiet bikes.

Indeed, a good day in the woods! I'm digging the new controller. Super smooth and controllable even with more power available.

Its annoying how flat it looks, pretty good hillclimb.

Everyone had a few mistakes. This gully is trickier than it looks but at least he didnt fracture anything.
