Beaverdale Hillclimbs

[SpeedBump]

Got a few clips of some of my buddies at the last Hillclimb...wicked hill.
This is Matt on his latest beast....Honda 250X with a custom +6 250R swinger, 400ex a-arms and a CBR600 engine.

[SpeedBump]

Here he is again, this time on his TRX400EX powered by a KTM520.

Last one of Matt. Basically a stocker Banshee with pipes and some portwork.

[SpeedBump]

Here is his competition...it is a Banshee chassis, with a late model Yamaha R6 engine. He beat Matt by .10 sec. Both videos of the same machine, but 2 different riders...brothers share it.

Bad thing about this one...up close, you can see it is not longer abel to be ridden in the trails. Matt's is...still has same ground clearance and such. This one, way low in mid section.

[SpeedBump]

This is a piped Yamaha 450....not much else to say..it runs good.

[SpeedBump]

These are some pics. Nothing real special.

The first ones, these guys are nutz...they decided to run them 2 at a time up the hill, drag race style. Did bikes too. Then at the very end, they ran THREE at once. Not real smart, but WAY COOL! :w00t:

The next series is how NOT to climb here. This will give you an idea of how damn steep it really is...the pics tend to make it look a bit more tame, but trust me, near impossible to walk up with out using your hands , or the ropes.

Id Be All Over That Hill. It Looks Real Nice When you guys come out July 16th, I will take you over to look at it in person...much more intimidating standing at the bottom lookin up at its 200+ feet of steepness!!!!! :eek: :eek:


Oh, you ARE coming out with the others, right? No excuses buddy! Load em up and come on!

Don't take Max to look at that hill, cause he won't just look at it. He'll be up that thing before we even get our helmets off! :eek:

No sarcasm here...I'd love to see him climb it. That would be awesome to see. it's a pretty tough hill. Pics really don't do it justice. Hope to see you guys soon. Pack the minivans and comon down. LOL

Just leave jsmack out there if he runs his yap in person like he does on the boards. I'd like to have a fun day of riding, not hear about how tf '06 will be renamed to Jfest '06 LOL

Where is it from Rt. 81 coming down from NY?
Can you run Trikes up that sucker?
I may want to go check that out if it isnt too far from Syracuse NY :w00t:

[350Xhilaration]

No trikes allowed and no machines allowed except on race day.

[OldSchoolin86]

That 520 is awesome, the R6 is one fugly POS!

[Mosh]

Where is Beaverdale, is that in WV? Was that hillclimb on one of the Huevos movies?

[SpeedBump]

PA, near Johnstown. The R6 IS ugly. Yes, Huevos III.

[3leggeddog]

no trikes!!!!!!!!!WTF??lets riot,i wanna climb it.

[SpeedBump]

When you see it in person...you will change your mind. I will take you guys over to see it. Heck, you can try to walk up it to get a good pic from up top if you would like...I go about half way each time there for a better view to talk pics and vids...but boy, hard to get up and down. Brandon! WHILE I AM THINKIN BOUT IT!!!!!!! Can ya toss my Carhart in the back of the truck so you don't FORGET again.....(J/K my fault for leavin it there in the 1st place! )
