US of A Reconnaissance Mission pt.1
1 |
Josh and I, plus tag along fellow Drift Bikes rider Adam Smithson, were lucky to get a break from the cold and rain with a trip to the US mid July which scored us a week on two brand spanking Santa Cruz bikes as we picked our way through Californian from Santa Cruz to Lake Tahoe and across the Sierra Nevada Desert to Moab, Utah.

Here we scored five and a half hours in the saddle as we descended along the “Whole Enchilada” trail from 11,600 feet back to the desert floor, some 7,500 feet below.[/caption]
Stay tuned for the GoPro footage, as it wont disappoint! In addition to our Buller trip next year we are also planning a tour of the US so stay tuned for more info on how you can relive our experiences on board your own bike!
