  11. I am in the early stages of planning another KAT loop in the fall. The record rain fall last year has changed much of the route. Some big washouts have uncovered some rocks.

    Should read, Two Up ASS Packing on the Grom. I had know idea this is what you meant when you said that you wanted to expand your riding experience and try new things.

    What's the best way to wash and care for riding gear?
  15. Switches that are exposed to the rinse spray water, rain or the occasional tip over during water crossings. Also I have a lot of free time. MMM.Witt Rd. by
  16. Wash/Polish/lube every 200 mile day ride or on return from multiple day trip. Bike Wash by
  17. I like your style.🥓🥩🍕🍔
  18. Just returned from the Gap. I got a fast Thursday 110 mile solo balls out ride on a dragon loop route after arriving at Iron Horse around noon. Friday spent the 203 mile day with the wife on back exploring back road conditions, including light gravel. I spent all 220 mile day Saturday alone blasting forest service roads at elevation and down at creek level with a few asphalt ribbons connecting the dirty stuff. All is well in the area. 533 Miles Total. I give it a 4 star weekend only because I could not find another rider to do dirt with me. then again, I do ride faster when alone. 😎 Tires: Mitas E07 Dakars 2019 Dragon Front 1 (1) by 2019 Dragon Front 1 (2) by Stromtroopers 2019 1 by Stromtroopers 2019 2 by B
  19. I randomly had a great ride today. After arriving at Iron Horse around noon and unloadeding the Strom. My wife unpacked and set up the room while I jumped on the bike and did a quick run down 28 to the 129 store, jumped on the dragon and did a down and back. Then ran back on 129 to 143 to Iron horse. A very exciting 80 miles. Little traffic and I scrubbed in a new rear Mitas 50/50. Tried to get it done before the dragon but had two big rear power slides on exit that made me reminisce the old superbikes day's. 75degs, what a way jam.
