post your rides...im so extreme...but the logs rides are lots of fun...the real big one at 6mile is still a bit out of range if anyone has a video of it id like to see it...use the IMG code it comes up in the tread like mine did...

get yer ass off the saddle and they'll be ALOT easier. you want to stand up and forward, bend your knees, and basically have your ass in front of your saddle for riding along the top of logs. it will give you better balance and allow you to react to and correct problems more quickly.

i don't have any video of me doing the big log crossing at 6-mile, but i think i was the first, before it was built up with sticks on the high side.

heres one at mooch and a photo of one at huber.

That day was fun. Sean bunny hopped a log pile that was roughly the same size as my truck.
