Trail Ride

Just a couple pics from my ride today at Indian Creek Valley riding club trails in SW Pa. I have been home an hour and haven't even washed it yet . The trails were slick, that about worn out MT43 wasn't a great tire for the conditions haha.

Nice suroundings. But i think your bike is very clean even if you been offroad :). I don’t think that it’s a god idea to wash the bike all the time with high pressure hose. I don’t wash my bike very often.

I keep my bikes very clean. No pressure washer, just regular hose and elbow grease. The trails weren't very muddy today only a couple spots with any mud. I ALWAYS wash my bikes after a ride. Lets me check it over well for anything that might need attention or repaired, plus I just like keeping a clean bike .

After I do some offroad rides I think the bike probably weighs 10-15lbs
more with all the mud on it. Who wants to carry that around. I'm
looking for the lightest ride possible. Clean it..... I'm with you Coop.

I like to clean after riding in the dirt too. Grit in moving parts wears them out faster. A clean bike is a happy bike.
