Welcome from Huntsville.  I just picked up a KLX250 so I'm back in the Dual Sport game.  Looking forward to riding with you sometime.

Welcome from Elkmont, kinda I claim Ardmore but post office thinks different.  I'd like to ride around Mentone and Little River Canyon but have never and don't know where to.  Maybe we can trade roads, I know most of the nearest dualsporting north of Huntsville.

I'll be glad to trade routes or show you some of my favorites.    I plan and track my rides on the REVER app from rever.co.   If you download the free version and "friend" me then you can see all my rides.   Little River Canyon is a lot of fun.   On the southwest side of Hwy 35 there's a paved scenic route that follows the rim of the canyon.  I went there a couple of months ago and part of it was closed due to storm damage.  On the northeast side of Hwy 35 there's an off road section that follows the river up towards Desoto Falls State Park.

You should find several like minded friends here; we have a good contingent of dual sport riders.

Welcome from a cruiser rider in Montgomery!

I enjoy dual sport riding in this area but just learned of this forum yesterday.   I look forward to riding with some of you folks soon.   I've been riding a KLX250 for years and just added a 2012 BMW F800GS.   Jackson County, Sewanee, Little River Canyon, and Leiper's Fork TN are some of my favorite areas.

Dirt & Dual Sport Rides / Re: Dual Sport ride Friday 7/3 ?

I forgot to mention, because it has been so rainy, the dust wasn't bad.  If it had been dry for a week it would have been nasty in places.

Looks like a good ride. How many miles?

I rode 240 miles but around 70 of those miles were getting to and from the ride.  Keep in mind that a good part of the route was set up to check out some new roads.  We bypassed to known good roads to do that.  There is a lot of good riding in the area but for those interested in hard core dirt with as little pavement as possible, this isn't the best area to ride.  I enjoyed it because I bought a bike that is fun ON and OFF road.  I really enjoy those paved "goat trails" that are common in the area.  The best of the gravel/dirt riding was in E. Limestone county near the end of the ride.
