Wondering if Win will be on his Klx250? Or the bigger bike.

I will be on my KLX.  There is some stuff on this ride I wouldn't want to do on my Versys.  Actually, the KLX is more fun on the paved goat trails as well.  Bring one of your smaller Dual sports if you want.  We'll keep the speeds down on the faster roads.

There are a few sections that are pretty rocky and/or rutted.

I'm thinking on riding something a little less than 250. 55 or so with my old fat butt. 😁😁

I thought you had a Husaberg and a KTM.  Did you get something else?

I can send you my address, I'm 7 miles South of Ardmore, you could unload here.

@thinwater

I may be able to make this one...you got room for another truck at the house?

I'm definitely in, I'm just hoping my bike doesn't get sleepy and take a nap on this one!  ;D

Will this be an under 55mph ride? Is gas available (small tank)
Thanks for the addy.
I'll be carrying a spare gallon if anybody needs it.

Here's the plan.   

Meet at the Shell station in Ardmore at 9.  I will lead the ride before lunch.  It will be a mix of paved roads, paved goat trails and dirt/gravel roads.  One of the dirt roads has a long rutted out hill.  Other than that it's all pretty easy.   

Lunch will be at Campbell Station.  Thinwater will lead the ride after lunch.  Some of the dirt after lunch will be more challenging but nothing real hard.

If you have a small tank or limited range let us know and we'll be sure to plan for enough gas stops.

I would like to join you for this ride.

I only have a 100 mile range (dumb Honda engineers).

Great ride today. I got 330 miles so maybe 300 corrected. Rolled in just before 8:00. A twelve hour day on a bad seat. Loved it!

Good ride today.  It was good to see everyone.  We had 10 people show up for this ride.  I'll post some pics tomorrow.
