Gotta tell ya, After seeing the clips..............The Video does NO justice to the size of this hill ! Its pretty intimidating when you are at the bottom looking up ! Only problem is once you commit.....There is no way back, but up ;D Even with a great pair of sneakers on the bike, It was still dancin all over and hard to control ! I would like to try the hill again and get some footage with my Cam cord. Next Time will be from the bottom of the hill looking up

I wanna take a whack at that hill while she's that muddy!
I used to have a '97 Honda CR500R. I miss riding, but really enjoy my bones being in tact!
It would be cool to get some guys around and drag race up that baby!

I don't ever take my phone off my side anymore! I'm going to try and avoid anymore broken legs...I'm pretty sure I could tame that hill the most that would get broken was a collar bone or something!

What made it tough was it would hook up and pull the front wheel and then start sinking or spinning. I didnt want to just nail it or i would have been over backwards. Sure was fun though.

sorry boyz it took me so long, I couldn't resist and had to bring it home. I have to give it a bath and go through the fuel system etc , at least it was in a barn and not out in the elements ;D Frame and suspension, rear diff, brakes, tires etc all look good... Here she is! my "Poor man's Centaur"Dave do you think she'll pass Al's test
