Urbexcross - Flagstaff Singletrack Destroyed Me

- Riding singletrack at 8,000 feet? Flagstaff didn’t just test me-it destroyed me. Tanner (@Adventure Daily) and I started with a chill ride, but it quickly turned into some of the most BRUTAL terrain I’ve ever faced. High elevation, rocky trails, and hard enduro-style singletrack pushed me to my absolute limits as a beginner rider.
Tanner’s CRF250F handled it like a champ, while I did my best to survive on my KTM 250 EXC-F. The altitude made everything tougher, and by the time the trail got really gnarly, we had no choice but to turn back. This was easily one of the hardest rides I’ve ever done-and it reminded me why I love riding dirt bikes.

Riding with someone better like you are, definitely makes you better, faster. As my one friend would always tell me "if you not crashing, you not riding hard enough". Keep it up buddy, you'll get there and it does get better
dude I appreciate that immensely. and absolutely! I just hope I keep all my bones intact haha
For your riding experience, you did great. I remember the days of picking my bike up a half dozen times or more, tirerd
thanks Jon! Yeah, it was a suffer fest haha. But, I'm actually excited to try to do better next time.
Banger intro dude!! It’s rides like this that you’ll never forget!
Thanks buddy! absolutely. I won't forget this one. neither will my plastics hahaha
You are ready for the TKO 😅😅
hahaha absolutely not, I would be dead as shit
The cute lil horn beep as you faceplant into a rock has me dead bro 😂
hahahahaha bro I knew you'd get a crack out of that hahahahaha. I musta panic tapped it on my way to the ground
I would leave my 4 stroke home for this one. Take my 300xcw instead. Definitely wanna ride this trail. Keep working at it, and you'll get better. You've got a good attitude.
Dennis, That's the correct tool for the job! haha My buddy here actually has one of those and I rode it last week. suchhhhh a smooth bike, man. maybe one day I'll pick one up!
I'd recognize the northern Arizona forests anywhere! If you want more flow and less stop & go, check out the White Mountains. Perfect for dual sports where you can ride out to and back on roads
That sounds awesome! I'll have to check that out. We did The Senders after this, that was my favorite!
Upper moto is a hell of a trail. Ride it most weekends. It has eaten multiple skid plates on my lowered bike.
dude I can only imagine!!! I'll have to go back! I feel like we only did half of the trail before we had to turn around.
@@urbexcrosslet me know when you’re coming back and we’ll ride the whole trail.
@@elliotmartich260 Let's do it! Hoping to get back there in Spring/Early Summer. =) Shoot me an email (it's on my page)
Rocky Moto... appropriately named.
haha seriously correct! Twas rockier than ever!
Yep, you're a trial by fire kinda guy. The cramping thing might be a potassium deficiency, do you take a multivitamin? GNC's Mega Men are excellent. Funny thing, I was following Adventure Daily before I found your channel. Fell in love with the d/s urbex thing you and Mack did though, same thing my buddy and I love to do.
I tend to get thrown to the wolves and try to survive haha. Yes I have been lately on multivitamins and a better diet than back when this was taken. I also have been a mural painter for close to 11 years now which is like hand/wrist abuse, probably developed some form of carpal tunnel. But I have been trying to build up wrist strength in the gym so hopefully that helps too idk?
@@urbexcross I made a lot of mistakes in the gym that cost me later. Take it from me and always leave your ego at home when lifting, only worry about form, technique, consistency and always stretch well. I wish I had understood it's a marathon, not a race.👍
@@phantomshtterdude! this is good info! absolutely! I went a little too hard on Tuesday, my legs still are hurting
Usually when I watch these videos, I think 'I wanna do that.' or 'I wanna ride there.' Not this one. No desire at all to ride that.
hahahah! Best comment! I would be lying if I said I didn't feel the same way Midway through after picking my bike up for the 30th time LOL. looking back it was actually a good time and I honestly would like to go back just to try to conquer the full Trail sometime.
