Despite nearly dying the last time I traveled to British Columbia to ride dirt bikes with the @TractioneRag crew, I signed up to return this year for the Big Rock Candy Mountain dirt bike riding event: a week-long extravaganza of pristine singletrack, high desert riding, amazing food, great friends, and one of the coolest campout locations on the planet.
Day one of five days riding dirt bikes in Canada didn't go well for me. I started out pretty slowly and quickly discovered that I was in way over my head. I thought that was the worst until I discovered that I lost my phone on the trail somewhere and had to separate from the group to go back and find it. After catching up with the group we rode dirt bikes down the infamous descent that claimed a certain popular KZitemr's desire to ever ride dirt again.
I'll be honest, this dirt bike riding trip was a lot for me. I lack both the skills and the physical fitness to be successful on this kind of hard enduro riding. Still, the only way out is through, and I was determined to survive this trip without quitting along the way. Did I make it? Well, you'll just have to subscribe to find out...
Big shout out and thanks to @spitescorner for suffering through this experience alongside me. I couldn't have done it without you, my man.
