A weekend, in North Central Washington, in October, on my motorcycle, with my favorite dudes? Not much could be better really. We drove up to Entiat, which is just outside of Wenatchee washington, Friday night. Torrential downpour, couldn't see a thing! Pulled into camp around midnight, still pouring. We slept in the back of a Volkswagon jetta with two 70 pound dogs instead of setting up the tent, that's how hard it was raining. Saturday morning, it was still raining. Great...I hate riding in the rain! After sitting by the fire, drinking lots and lots of coffee, about noon the sky opened up and we got a break from the rain. Alright, get your gear on! Let's ride!! Hopped on the bikes and took off on a trail right out of camp. We rode some great single track, and the fall colors were amazing!
We rode a good 3 hours that day, ended up getting stuck in a downpour most of the way back to camp, but had a great ride anyway. Sunday we woke up and it was gorgeous outside, blue sky and warm. We headed up the mad river trail, tommy trails area north of Leavenworth. Best single track around!
We ended up riding for 5 hours Sunday. Started in Sunshine, got into snow,
a little rain, some fog, and then back to sunshine when we got back to camp. The last trail we came down was "experts only" super tight switchbacks, drop offs, and on the brakes the whole time...I loved every minute of it!! I mean what can be better than a weekend of riding dirtbikes with your dad and his dirtbike buddies??
