Rick, I just added one section of trail specifically for you

a couple of rock steps followed by some loose rocks and a 90 degree turn to go up the 7 or 8 feet bank

Do not worry guys for the ones not wanting the challenge, there is an easy bypass!

Looking forward to hear how it went. Until this morning I was hoping to be able to join, but plans came to a halt when it ended up becoming obvious that titling the bike was going to take significantly more doing than expected... Oh well there will be another time! I downloaded the tracks !

I don't know why, and no disrespect meant to anyone, but Luc's trails looked a whole lot more fun (challenging) on Savage's video. I even went back and looked at Lucs' to see if it was the same place. I think Savage's video quality really made a difference. In any case, I can't wait to ride those t...

I worked for me, I open the file from mapsource looking for GPX files and it poped right back in....

Oops, my message from my phone was messed up!

Thanks guys for coming , it was fun. Glad you guys liked the trail, always hard to find the right balance, too slow, too fast, too technical, too easy, etc... Hopefully there will be a little bit of everything for everybody!

Looks like a lot of fun Luc! I was wanting to ride over and help break the trails in this weekend as well, but then the storms started rolling in this week. I bet it's pretty muddy out there right now, I know my place is. It Is Up To You Kyle, We WillRider Some, MaybeNotAsLongIfItTreatsUpTheGroundT...

Got a pretty decent deal on a 2013 FE 501, same suspension as 2014 KTM the way I understand it. Fork is nice, but I probably need to get shock and forks resprung and revalved, I think I am too heavy for it... http://gagnaou.smugmug.com/Motorcycles/various/i-Smpk2GD/0/L/IMG_8422-L.jpg Need to spend s...

Maybe I should ride it with my 950 so it makes me look smaller

How many miles between gas stops?

It's just a blue KTM

This has been a long time in the making, but it is finally going to happen, I am organizing a ride in Manhattan. For those of you who don't know me, my wife and I had been fortunate to find a place with some acreage. It has been almost 3 years now, but since then the idea was to have some kind of a ...

Got about 1.5 mile loop cleared out over the last 2 weekends so I went and test rode it

No kidding! I am still puzzled on how you can put that many miles on a dual sport bike and have it look that pristine. This a very nice bike!

So there is a RideForum Complex A & B test site in Manhattan? SWEET! Is it similar to Kyle's or...? Sorry for the thread detour. Not near as cool as Kyle's. It is just a path in the pasture mainly Hold on now....Kyle has the mini enduro cross track, but not much of an enduro trail. Luc has a mini e...

Knowing that you were mainly unhurt, I was laughing out loud picturing the situation! Thanks for taking the time to tell the story, the second fall is hilarious, because I think we have all done it at some point or another... Heal well!

Don, you should give us the whole story here any pictures?

Macwildcat, if you want to preride it before you go out west, you should come by my place sometimes. I cleared up the trail you tried out last time you were there... Same with you Savage, I just need to do a little bit more before I tried to organize a ride forum event there

:shock: How fast do you ride? 650 miles of gravel equates to 2.5 to 3 days for me. Well, out west as Troy mention you can see forever and I have quite a few stretches without turns so you can make some time. Out east it is slower because of visibility and the number of turns you have to deal with.....

DonG wrote:How long do you think this would take to ride?

i would say about a day and a half, or a very good day if you want to push it. It is about 650 miles
