It was an amazing trail ...Real Crazy with lots of exposure ... The local I was riding with told me to "Not look down" ... I have never seen such long sheer drops ... Awesome though

Yeah Pedalhead-did you ride the Death Drop section on the Portal-the Big block that has claimed a few lives. Check out THe Man Wade Simmons nailing it on the collective/Roam

Nah I dismounted ...
It was a fairly easy obstacle but the consequences if you didn't make it were sorta bad.

Yeah DOA for shore,back in 2001 a guy died doing just that.I rode it just once as it had become a mental thing and needed to prove something to myself-pretty stupid in retrospect-but i am still here.

I practised for 6 months on a similar obstacle before having the balls to do it!

UMMMM, that gave me the tihss watching it on the screen! And to think that there is a more riskier "Death Drop" Either I’m a real pussy (most likely) or you’re all freaks.

Moab is in the U.S of A. ...
I hired a Giant Reign XO from Chile pepper bikes for about $60 bucks a day and I must say I liked the way it handled.
