    how they used to ride in the canyons

    ok so maybe people have seen this before, kind of an old thread of advrider but wow, I found it purely amazing.

    and some pretty cool historical pictures of what Colorado riders did for fun in the '50s

    so, if you haven't already seen this thread, its worth going over:

    There is some pretty amazing stuff on the ADV Rider site. Ralph got me hooked on it last year. You can spend years there and not see everything.

    couldn't you just post the link for all of us that are too: stupid, lazy or non-search savy. I typed in exactly what you said and it didn't find a damnd thing.

    Okay...i found one called getting stuck, crashes and getoffs...hopefully this is it...cause you are taking too long to reply.

    "A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self- preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property, and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."
