Colo-Feckin'-Rado Part 2, Frisco!

(Part 2 out of who knows how many)

Gat Dayum! The Radness that is Colorado knows no bounds. It just doesn't seem to end. (Like, there's a cute chick literally parking her Honda Ruckus as I'm typing, you can't beat that) There's been several instances where I thought to myself "Wow, this must be it, the absolute peak of Radness, it was rad while it lasted, glad I was there..." And then BAM!!! Some other spectacular rad event occurs right before my very eyes. 

(Pretty sure Honda Ruckus' are the official mode of transportation in Denver. This one looks ready to defend our Rad Nation)

So you're probably thinking to yourself, "Well, if Colorado is so feckin rad, just how is this weird radish dude going to fit it all into his online journal of ridiculous rambling?"  My answer- One rad step at a time ladies and gentlemen. 

(Figured I'd post another pick of Hula Girl and the open road)

Let me pick up where we last left off...
After experiencing the single track Mecca know simply as Fruita first hand, we packed up the adventure mobile known affectionately as "Earl" and headed due east. Our plan, check out a few travel trailers to make camp life a little more luxurious and then find shelter, beer, and ultimately more radness in Denver. Things almost went according plan, but thank god they didn't. 

So instead of looking at trailers, we bought one...
(That fiberglass beauty you're staring at is a 17' 2001 Castia Liberty Deluxe. The beauty jumping for joy is my lady, clearly stoked on the purchase of our 1st home)

And instead of staying in Denver, we nabbed one of the last available camp grounds in Frisco so we could check out The Outlaws of Dirt, hell yeah. 



  Yup, rad things happen to rad people. Turned out my good buddy Nick was helping to organize the Outlaws of Dirt contest at the Frisco Adventure Park. Now, I'm not gonna cover all the details of the event, the rad dudes over at PSBmx.com already took care of that, but I can post up a few pics as whatnot, maybe even share my "feelings"...


(Check out the scenic-ass campsite, not bad view to wake up to. The epic monsoon rains at night were kind of a bummer, especially when we learned our tent was more "Water-Resistant" rather than "Water-Proof", but all that juicy precipitation made for good dirt conditions, gotta focus on the positive)

(I forgot to snap a pic of the sign so I grabbed this one off google, as you can see, they have tons of different lines to choose from with something for all shredders of various shredabilities)

(Here's the dirt jump section at the Frisco Adventure Park. They got a line for every shred level)

(Notice this event had everybody getting involved, young kids, old dudes, lady shredders, you name it. Just people on two wheels trying to keep the rubber side down)

Be sure to check out some of these links for even better coverage of the epic raditude compiled if dirt and two wheels-

After shredding and watching other shredders shred all weekend, we headed to Denver, moved into some room we rented, and proceed to drink, ride, dig, shred, rage, bike-party, and God knows what else the next three weeks away...
But I'll save all that for another post. 

As always, stay rad. 
The Rad Roaming Radish
