It was really fun to do this ride!

To my knowledge it isn't repaired, and there aren't any plans to repair it. I think they have determined that the bypass is the new access path. I really wanted to go see if we could get through it on the bikes, but we ran out of time. I want to head down there with the UTV and see what it looks like.

This is the southwest side of Factory Butte, in the Swing Arm City area.

@@3granddaddysoffroad95 ok... Utah. nice playground!

This trail starts out on the 48th street motorcycle trail. The parking lot is off the Sunset peak road, and a little beyond the Upper hulls trailhead. We took 48th up to the Curlew Gull Jeep trail, then picked back up the 48th and took it up to the ridge road. There are multiple trails off the ridge road you can take down into the many gulches in that area. I was surprised at just how quickly you could be on a single track from the city.

Sorry Andrew, we're kind of meat and potatoes granddads. Enjoy the Quinoa!

@@3granddaddysoffroad95 Thanks. Would y'all like to go lithium bikes?

It doesn't happen often, so I was going to enjoy this as much as possible.

A friend would try to help. A True Friend Laughs so hard he can't help!! always nice to know who your True Friends are. Believe me, when the shoe's been on the foot he's received the same kind of "help"!!

Ya, we couldn't get on the log going this direction. It has a turn on the north end that screws the approach. Much more fun to watch Doug turn turtle.

yes, we rode all of it in low range. with 4 inches of travel, the suspension will not let you go very fast. But low range will climb every hill on the entire loop, but just barely. We would use all 4 gears in the low range but mainly 1st and 2nd. Makes you feel like its 1972 again.

We’ve ridden it both ways on bikes and in our side x side. It’s a really fun ride with lots of variety. With all the sand this one has it’s always easier early or late in the season. Normally I ride a 450 down here, but for this ride I was on an FC265. It was perfect for the conditions! On the pickle… I usually take the bypass.:)

glad you liked it. We've run this trail for more than 20 years now and it's a lways a good ride!

Thanks! it's been a fun one. You should head out there and try a little. It's a fun place to ride.

😂😂😂

It's only scary at the start, then when you get over to the edge so you don't go off the ledge, then when you have to miss the big rocks in the middle of the trail in the loose stuff. No biggie, just a little hill to drop down.

It'll make your heart race a little that's for sure. It really is awesome though!

There's always hope that the sun will save me.....

No way! i rode a tote gote in the 60's! no way I'm going back!!

Its a little short, but it's really a fun way to get back to the ATV trail.

Its certainly possilbe after 4 days of riding up there!

I just got back from Florida last night and I would rather "billy goat around" in the mountains than deal with salt water sand getting into every fastener!😅😂🤣🤫

@@3granddaddysoffroad95 Yes sir, nothing there but sand and cactus.

I appreciate that, Thanks!!

Sorry. I'm just uploading our last trip. 3 days creates a few videos.

Glad you liked it. I set that up special you know...

@@3granddaddysoffroad95 I knew it. I just knew it. Thanks for thinking about me. I’m just an lonely old guy who rides motorcycles.

Hey thanks for taking a look at the video. If you read the description it says the "Behind the Rocks area". We knew it was along the service road, as you can see us ride the road for a bit, we just thought it was fun that there was a little single track beside it for a ways. The actual start of the trail is off HWY 191 before you make the climb up the hill to where the service/camp site road starts. We prefer to access the BTR trail off the sharp left hand corner when the service road heads west. There is a nasty off camber climb at the actual start of this trail. We aren't that good of riders to do it. We're old Granddaddy's after all.

@@3granddaddysoffroad95 I saw those single tracks when we came back on the service road. How long are they? Do you have more video about it? We just finished the hard section on BTR, yeah that hill is hard.

@@endurowarrior The single track is really from the sand dune area to about halfway to the main highway. They aren't much, but more fun than the road. 6 years ago they didn't exist at all. We're hopeful that these are part of a larger effort to get a few more motorcycle single track trails in the Moab area. Hopefully the powers that be down there will continue to add sections to what's been started and allow those of us on off road bikes to enjoy that area without the fear of a jeep or SXS running over us. (LOL) We ride down there 6-8 times a year, and BTR is always a favorite.

@@3granddaddysoffroad95 awesome, I think Green River area has a single track, and we did a lot at San Rafael Swell, the color trails, and Sovereigns.

This was a first for us. We've been back a couple of time since and it's a blast to ride up there.

Thanks for subscribing! We tried that to see if we could keep the pace while taking whatever the road threw into our lane. This of course was all to see if we could not take out the other lane as well. It is really fun on that kind of trail.
