Had a fun couple days out in Buena Vista, Colorado with some friends. Ran the trail 2.5 times total as Saturday I had to make a trip to Leadville for parts to fix one of the rigs on the trip that broke early in the day. Then take the parts up the trail to them and back out again.

That trail looks amazing, to bad it will be renamed. 
Chinamans Gulch how racist can you get, it will get changed to Asian-persons gap. Wait is gap OK

The renaming has been shot down a few times now, hopefully it continues since the history is that an enterprising Chinese man lived there and cut ties for the railroad. I don’t find that racist, it’s history of an intelligent person building America.
That’s a fun trail, the v-notch where you all have the flop has changed a lot over the few years I’ve done it. It was easier in April then I ever remember it, but it either shifted since then or someone was on an older line.
The first flip I’ve seen in person was there too, what a blast!

Oh no your a Chinaperson, so stop this before I have Chris woke you.If you're a man from China, it stands to reason that you'd be referred to as a Chinaman. Duh!
Yeah that trail has changed a lot over the last ten years. In the last two years it’s gotten super dug out and widened in sections. Making some of them easier and some more difficult. it’s really amazing the difference in tire pressure makes. I ran it early Saturday then went for parts in Leadville in my Jeep so I aired up. Then partially aired down to go up to just before the Carnage split. The next morning after camping. I aired down but + 2psi difference in what I ran Saturday morning. I didn’t have near the traction I had on Saturday. My tires really like 8-10psi anything more and they suck in my opinion.
If you have MTRs that’s my experience so far. A few guys like 6psi but I’ve not had a reason to venture there yet.
