At the link below is a Garmin Adventure describing a 300 mile ride Lucas and I did from Dallas into Oklahoma. Using big adventure bikes, Vstrom and Tenere, we tried for every gravel road we could find. Ever see giant catfish heads as fence decoration? Checkout the photos in the attached. If this type of riding interests you and you would like a riding partner, drop me a PM.
