Phils Trail



old filling pump and sign just north of Moro





Day one....phils trail, buffed out bermy-goodness with a few technical sections thrown in to break up the smoothness. The morning in Bend started with a cup of joe from some coffee shop wih a trendy italian name, the coffee was good and just about right after a nights stay in the back of the wagon near the rustic town of Moro. We thought about pulling in for a beer or two last night at the local pub with a great name "Sweet Water", but opted for the wheat field just out side of town and a couple cans from the cooler in the back seat. Dark skies and bright stars.


weird camera angle


Anyway, cup of joe thrown down and then followed some good directions from the trail review section over at dirtworld.com and we were off on our first day of Oregon singletrack. Lots of happy faces out on this trail network and some helpful direcions as we climbed up to the Helicopter pad and from here all back downhill following the Whoops Trail. Appropriately named with lots of jumps and bermed corners. Fun stuff. Thanks Bend !!
