Anybody want to have some fun Saturday? Me (wr426) and my buddy (wr250) plan to do some riding on Bingham mountain. We will be meeting in Gurley at Hardees at 9AM.

Its big bike friendly if you are experienced.

Come early and eat breakfast at hardees or eat a good breakfast beforehand. There isn't anywhere to eat lunch until we leave.
My buddy needs to be back on the road by 1:30, but he can leave by himself if we are still riding. I have all day.

Who is interested?

Never mind on the miles. Heck it's right next to Hollytree. See you there!

Haha I'm actually not sure! Not a whole lot. My Speedo and odo don't work so I don't keep track of miles on the WR. Where we are going in is just a few miles past hollytree.

Gas shouldn't be any issue.

should be before Hollytree, near the 7 mile marker on Hwy 65

David DoubleEX

You may be right.... I know where we turn at when I spot it. But I'm typically not lead.

Thanks Johnny, I appreciate it!

The steepness I could handle...it is the sidewaysness I would have problems with.  :D

Yeah not sure why my phone flipped the picture sideways

But actually it is pretty steep first starting out. The first stretch up the mountain. After that it's not bad.
we had an old clapped out 70s dirt bike with street wheels make it up there and back down!

Yeah I'm going to trailer mine to Gurley and ride from there.

You shouldn't have any problem on a 350. Come join us!

my driveway is less than a half mile from where you go up the mt. You can park in my front yard if you want. I have plenty of room.

David DoubleEX

Now that's just too convenient. I will send you a message.
