You can then go up to the towers to get a good dose of microwaves and check out the veiw. then take tower rd back down to the cut off that takes you to Senator hwy turn right to the y hard left to minnihaha and then take the cross over back to CK trail. that makes for about 70-80 miles of riding but most of it is easy and can be taken at a fast pace.

Derek you been out with me. You kind of know what I like to ride (medium stuff) I don't mind some forest trail but I like to get off into some of the rocky stuff. Is it worth my time than or wait till it erodes out again? If I want to drive forest roads I can do that easy enough in p-town and save the gas.

I do so need to try the one trail on the other side of 260 that I had trouble with again. maybe I would be better off attacking the stupid little bump until I can get over it. I am still ticked I couldn't get over the punch and judy hump.

If you take the route I suggested its not to bad a ride with some great views, a bit tame but the fudge from the CK store is worth the trip. Or you could go from Wickenburg, you'd have to get tracks from Steve I haven't gone that way before.
Did you find out what was wrong with the four wheel drive, someone was telling me what causes that but I forgot. The quads will be going up to Payson soon for the summer, we will get in some rides then.

DTwo,

No, its been working fine since. There is a spot on HM Rd. that accesses the powerline road from further down (then where we normally access from the cattle guard) that has a good rock step that I can test it on. I normally go the extra 1/4 mile to the cattle guard since from there I can go to Houston Loop or the power line road.

I should have mine back together this weekend. I haven't been to the tree house in a couple weeks.

It's still a great ride, just not as technical as before. Just means I can run a little quicker. You're going to run into traffic on the weekend. Weekdays are way better if you are able. I always look forward to the saloon for lunch too. Have fun.
