Few pics from today


Recommended Posts

Today we took the new Rhino to a nice easy trail called Rollins Pass East. Rollins Pass is one of the old routes from the mining days. It is a very easy but scenic ride. Good place to break in the new motor. At the summit there is a tunnel called Needles Eye. You can't go through it for safety reasons. The other side of the tunnel is Rollins Pass West. Completely different trail heads. Here is a few pics from today.

These are the new Rhino at one of our resting spots.

This is a pic of Emerald Lake. An alpine lake at about 12,000 feet above sea level.

One of the many shelf roads. You MUST keep your eyes on the road.

This is what happens if you don't.

A few little clips of the ride. This is one of the easiest trails we ride. A fun relaxing cruise. Breaking in the motor on the Rhino.

The upgrade they made on the Rhino's suspension from 06-08 is unreal. The 700 was soaking up some good size bumps at about 25MPH like it was nothing. The 06 would buck alot.

well congrats on the new rhino, looks like its doing well for you....just the way you had to get it sucks...

but anywho, that place is gorgeous, is it cold up there??? i mean, that would be snow in the pics right??

It wasn't bad at all up there. Shorts and a sweat shirt and it was comfortable. It was 100 degrees in denver. The mountains were nice. Yeah that was snow. At 13,000 feet snow stays there year round.

These are some of my favorite shots from the other day. A pic of the wildlife that lives above tree line. And just some scenic shots from the summit of our ride. Right about 13,000 feet above sea level. In the back ground you will see where the pine trees stop growing. Not much lives this high up.

      Hi everyone. 
      Let me explain the thread title. 
      My husband and I are very active in the nudist community, and we have stayed at many and most of the mainstream nudist and clothing optional campgrounds in the USA. We are now approaching our retirement and would like to start a podcast to share those off the road / backwoods / little known camping areas where nudity is allowed. We have purchased a 5th wheel camping trailer with a rear garage for the ATV and now need some good reports on the one to buy. 
      We are most interested in a side by side unit but would love to get your thoughts. 
      Feel free to stop by and say Hi and ask anything you would like to better understand what we are looking for in an offroad unit. 
      Thanks for reading and hope to hear from you.

      Does anyone use GPS, whether on a device or app to record their ATV trail rides? I have been thinking about a section where our members can upload let's say a .gpx file and share their rides on a google map for others to see where there are riding areas. Not sure if this is something of interest or how much it would be used, so just trying to get an idea.
