Dig the WR rider's vintage Amoco jacket. Is that cool, or what?

OVBSAOC Board Member Steve Szewczyk advises, "Yes, we WILL be going up there!"

Many, many time Reliability Run participant gave this ISDT-replica BWM a break this opting instead for a very nice old DR350 Suzuki.

Less than 1/4 miles from the start, while the GREEN took riders down the road, the RED rider headed right into the creek. Check the beaver dam.


067.JPG

Yeah, it was a little deep.

Another splash through Island Creek, still just a half-mile from the start.

If you're going to ride the RED sections of the Reliability Run, you'd better like water crossings. We've got a bunch of them!


076.JPG

Some guys really get into it.


078.JPG

No, you can't keep your feet dry.


083.JPG

If you're going to get wet anyway, might as well have some fun!

The first trail loop, right on the campground property, does include some pretty challenging terrain.


090_2019-01-20.JPG

I made it! Three miles down and only 97 to go!


095.JPG

Is it tough? Well, the trials guys go up there . . .

Our young friend, Eric Choffin, rode the whole thing, including all the RED sections, on a vintage TC185 Suzuki. Stone stock original, right down to the turn signals. Only modification - a knobby on the back. Way to go, Eric!
