Rides and reports of motorcycle adventures. At dinner, the decision was made to put off the white rim trail until the last day, so there would be time for it to dry out, since the weather was supposed to clear. The on and off rains left the roads wet. It wasn't too bad along onion creek, as it was rocky enough to get good traction. Here's a longer video clip of this ride:. If you have a fast internet connection, be sure to play it in HD. it is clearer and sharper that way. Cliff coming up the road. Once ...
