Black and Decker August 16th 2025

 A friend had reminded me to not just ride the usual areas have done for 5 plus years. Aka step up my game. And thinking of where could go decided that Black and Decker was the option for the next road trip.

 


 

 Black and Decker - Dust Bowl 

 Going to Black and Decker is at least to me less about how far one rode. It is more of a playground with dirt and Canadian Shield rock. None of that sketchy when damp Limestone. Granite that has a bit of traction in it. So when I go there it is about attempting different lines and routes. 

 


 It has been 3 years or maybe longer since came up to Brockville and the Black and Decker Trails to ride and play. And to be honest while can ride distance and such like others I know. Slower tech like Black and Decker is more my style. While I am not into the drops and such at higher speeds like others I know. I can still ride well in my own way.

 

 


 

And cleaned a line that cannot recall at all if ever cleaned it before 2019. No idea if it is TBI related memory issues or not. Who knows. However cleaned it so that made it worthwhile especially. 

 


 

 After a few hours with it being hot and after a few goes at the little enduro or dh runs decided to call it a day. And was thinking as loaded up that while the trails at Batawa north of Trenton are good. That iame distance to the Black and Decker trails and I like those a bit more. And to be honest the natural dirt and rocks appeal to me more then the McSurface type trails.

 


 

 And soon will go back in the Fall again though the next trip will look at possibly focus on the enduro runs a wee bit more then this trip. See if can maybe hit them a wee bit better the next time.
