1974 OSSA Explorer

If in doubt, or it doesn't seem to fit elsewhere - put it here.

1974 OSSA Explorer

Took my 1974 OSSA Explorer out a few weeks ago on the Footies.
Bike runs wonderfully, loads of power down low, handles great and brakes are awful!

Lots of fun!

Ossa looks real good.
I've been riding foothills regularly on the Sherco.

I don't ride up there very much anymore.
Sure wish I could build some tight trails up there!

I don't know who is in charge of the trails anymore there.

Foothills for me is good to get me back into shape, especially for the Sherco where I ride 99.9% of the time on the pegs. It's close to home and as I frequently ride alone it a good area with lower risk. I frequently ride in the middle of the week and I've run onto to DNR crew several times, but have not talked much about developing new trails. I know they will be making a new trail off the ridge down to the Dry Hills riding area.
