Re: Sep 22, 2012: Mark Twain Dualsport

SO WHAT DO WE DO?! Three options as I see it: OPTION #1 Take Friday off and do an ALL DAY dualsport from Kansas City to the Freeman Off-road Resort (near Bunker, MO). Sat, we follow Link as he leads us on his dualsport in the Mark Twain--GOOD STUFF! Sun, we dualsport ALL DAY back to Kansas City. I f...

Re: October ride

I can't take all this waffling around. I'M OUT! 8) Just kidding. Oct 5 - 7 works better for me simply because it gives me a weekend with family before this ride : We need to figure this out quickly so folks can schedule their Friday off work. We should probably nail down some specifics--we can talk ...

Re: Rusty Jug Ride Sept 8,

Glad you guys had a good ride. The photos look like you have some cool things to see in your area. Is that bridge only for walking now?

Did I see katbeanz in there? Hi, Dean!

Re: Electric motorcycles

Letko is now a Kansas City dealer for Zero Motorcycles . Zero has a promotion running right now: Demo ride a Zero in Sep or Oct, and be entered to win a 2011 Zero motorcycle. Now get this--it's not just ONE motorcycle, it's one PER dealer. I demo'd the Zero DS today so I'm in the drawing. Guess how...

Shane Watts riding Skinny Ridge

I could do this....and monkeys might fly out my butt. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjT3tMeog_M[/youtube] Check out the climb onto the ridge halfway through the video. Shane does screw it up sometimes, though! The man is still human! [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vs4hydVTT78[/you...

Re: Rusty Jug Ride Sept 8,

Hey, RustyJug! If any details have changed, update your first post in this thread with latest info---to reduce confusion about when/where/what. I calculate 2 hours to get to your place from the SE corner of the KC metro. If I stay off Hwy 71, it might take closer to 3 hours according to the Google M...

Re: Dell's Powersports dual sport ride from Tonganoxie Sun 9

anyone planning to do this ride? I have never done a group dual sport ride and since this is leaving the town where I live its kind of hard to pass up. I don't know anyone planning on it yet, but I'm sure there will be folks riding of course. I've never done one of the Dell's Powersports rides; nor...

Re: Sep 22, 2012: Mark Twain Dualsport

This sounds like fun, but I can't commit for sure yet. It will definitely be fun. I can't commit quite yet, either, but am trying to make it work. I've ridden with Link many times, and it's always great. The last time I went out there, I took my F800 and my KTM 450. I had a great time on both. It n...

Re: Disney, OK

My brother and I just returned from a Labor Day weekend in Disney, OK camping and riding the off-road area below the dam. I have to say WOW! :shock: I'm not sure how this place is kept such a secret, but I'm told it is 2500 acres of playground! The area and trails are designed for big 4x4 rock crawl...

That caught your eye, too, eh?! I first thought the deck-looking structure you can barely see in the photo was the 4-corners lookout up at White Cloud, but I've been there many times, and there is not a ridge or trail like that there.
