I'm in.
I’m turning all shades of green, guys. I’ve been drafted to work tomorrow.
JT is riding.
I'm thinking (90% decided) of joining in the fun tomorrow. I've been on a couple of Sander's rides (always winners), but going out solo this time, so would like to join someone's group. I generally prefer to ride a tad less spirited than Sander on gravel/dirt.
I usually try to ride with Sander's group. I was the Ural medevac pilot last year, hauling Bill to the ER when he tried to climb that game fence on his Ural. This year I'll be on a KLR and am still really just learning how to ride off pavement on two wheels and don't want to hold up any group. At the same time, I don't want to ride alone, especially if there's mud. Do you have a way to run a gps for the tracks? I use the Scenic app but sometimes it crashes mid trip, a real bummer, so I don't really trust it too much.
Were you on the San Saba ride a couple years ago? If so, it was my daughter and I on the red Ural that had the flat tire.
That sounds great. I do have GPS with tracks and I'll make sure to get it lined up tonight.
Indeed it was me at San Saba when I took a little skid courtesy of the algea.
Does your daughter still ride with you? I loved reading about your summer trip with her.
I got rid of the Ural for the KLR650. After that summer trip from ****, being broke down in South Dakota and all, she began HATING the Ural. That, and the fact that it became her ride to school each day...... it lost all its allure for her. After three clutches and transmissions, it lost its allure for me too. So this past summer I traded it for the KLR. Now my little one doesn't ride with me. Now, my oldest daughter has a Versys X-300 and she sometimes rides with me. Hannah will probably be getting something like an XT250 in just a few years. I really thought that was cool, you and your son riding together. Hope to see you tomorrow.
