Scary speed. Wow I raced in Lucerne Valley Redmountain and Spankler area of CA. Some super fast dirt roads but mountain ranges to pass through with SCARY downhills and tough UP hills You make my day 73 year old. Bultaco/CZ/YZ rider. semper fi p.s. I use to say how do those fast guys do that with the TRAILER, and folks would say what trailer, I would say the one carrying their BALLs :)

First few seconds of this video are absolutely insane. I can't believe you guys are going so fast off the trail. Grew up riding desert my whole life and when I go off trail into the raw stuff I typically slow down but somehow you guys are going full send and doing it well. That's off to you. It's really impressive.

Holy ANXIETY!!! bro watching this again on my 60 in. with surround sound.. GG

Man, you are so good at picking your path and line - which is why you can ride so damn fast! Keep up the good work Josh!

I barely get out of 3rd on my 300xc where I ride. To be honest... those speeds look a bit terrifying. lol

This was fun to watch. My dad used to race and host H&H races with Vikings MC in Southern CA. They always tried to make courses that did not use pre existing trails. Of course, by the end of the races, there were new trails through the desert.

Looks like some fun riding right there. In my opinion, the desert is a rider's paradise.

Soooo fun to watch that bike sing on 6th gear

You guys posses super human talent!!

10 years at least of racing TORCS series in Texas hair and hound with half motocross track in the loop and I never got to ride on anything like what’s on this video. The TORCS is far more technically difficult. I like that a lot better much more wide-open full out. Where is this because I would love to go.

Jericho Utah, Most of our off-road races in this area are about 80 miles. The first 40 miles is high speed the second 40 miles often navigates into the higher elevation terrain and can get very technical. We need a better GoPro battery so we can capture the entire race.

Wide open racing...YOUR IN SOME GREAT SHAPE FOR A RACE LIKE THIS...KICKIN ASS 👍...

Where is this at?

Flat taps!!

Do you not have a steering damper on your bike?

So glad I wasn't there.....I would've easy been an hour faster than everyone else....it's hard letting other people win for a change

All that and no stabilizer, impressive

A 150 sx is fine to get you started racing desert. Look into District 37 desert racing. I raced yz125 for years in full length hare n hound races and I was fine. It’ll make you a better rider being on the smaller engine. You definitely wouldn’t be upset to have the extra power of a 250 if you did get one though

Hey serious question...how do you get away with running a camera in these races? I thought all AMA sanctioned events ban cameras while racing. It's been a while since I raced but when I did they had not changed the rule and always ran a gopro.

I'm 52 my days ot riding like that are past me but I'm still out there just a little slower
