Default Mario Kart IRL -- What a ride!

MarioKart: In Real Life!

I just got back from deer hunting with my DH. (Nope, just saw does).

I hadn't been on an ATV since the Evil Endurance Ride of 3 years ago, when DH took me on a 60 mile ride! Egad! It was supposed to be for FUN!

SIL left his 4-wheeler at our place, so DH and I each hopped on one and took off into the foothills about an hour before sunset.

I've lived here in central Utah for over 30 years and had never been on this trail. It only took us 5 minutes to get there! Sheesh, ya think I need to get outta the house more, or what?

I've driven over the Devil's Backbone on a 4-wheeler and this was worse!!!

Up, Down and Around. Speed up, shift up, slow down, shift down, lean to the left, lean to the right, stand up, sit down, etc. and again. The pics don't do it justice. Too dark to really appreciate the corkscrewiness of this crazy trail.

It was great fun, though. FYI, South Central Utah has over 900 miles of ATV trails!



I'm gonna pay for this tomorrow. Oh my aching wrists!
