    Do not go where the path may lead, instead go where there is no path and leave a trail.

    I'd say that could've ended badly. Nice country for riding.

    It does look like fun riding, here in FL I ride a lot of trails through forest, if you see a hill here its called a bridge.

    ..We thought about that, but just to be on the safe side we just felt pulling it up would be our safe bet..In the vid the hill side dont look steep but i was.If we were to try to ride up it,it would just roost a hole or loop out and the bike would have been a loss.If we would have went down things could have went bad as well, there was some gnarly rocks and stuff..But to tell you the truth,the way we did it with me standing on the cliff edge pulling on a strap was probably the most dumb way out of all of it because if the strap would have broke, then a life could have been lost or very badly beat up...but in all we got the bike out and we kept on ..Lots of great riding out at that place (Jawbone Canyon CA) good trail rides and gnarly hill climbs.Lots of camping spots there too..Check it out some day.
