I should also mention that the roads up in Doniphan County are unique because of the soil. It is very soft and fine. There are roads up there with dirt walls that are 15' high on either side. No kidding. It's a long ride, but try to make the whole thing if you can--it's some nice country.

Hey Carl, you still plan on doing this trek? If so, I'll see if I can get permission from the boss about joining up with you if you decide to go. If you don't go, maybe I'll be able to tag along with Troy. Haven't done a ride this long before, so maybe need to get some extra padding for the KLR sea...

I like the way you think! There are a few US-based dualsport magazines. I subscribed to one for a year, and oh boy did it suck. Hard to believe you could make a dualsport magazine boring, but they managed to pull it off. The dualsport market RELATIVE TO THE MOTORCYCLE MARKET AS A WHOLE is tiny. I be...

Where is Sudan? Both Google and Yahoo maps fail to find it. Interesting, Yahoo defaulted to pointing me to the center of KS (Which is where Lyons sits.)

My brother (KC on this forum) is out of Wichita and wants to plan a camp ride in the Fall River area. (Fall River is SE KS and in the Southern Flint Hills Region.)

I'll tell him about this thread.

:oops: I am an idiot. Letko Demo Days are June 29 & 30. This ride is the 23rd. There is not a conflict. Oops. Please disregard my previous posts. Daryl, I'll just ride over to your house at about 9:00AM? that would give us plenty of time to play along the way. I'll rework my route up to Atchison. I ...

Leaving from Edgerton, MO or Edgerton, KS? (both are relatively close to Kansas City) If Edgerton, KS, I assume you'd want to stay South of I-70...maybe cut through the hills around Council Grove. Mike, got some of the routes or tracks from the Stampede that could be strung across that region? Coron...

Regular Rides

I found this website, and I'm wondering how old this information is. http://www.kcbiker.com/orderongoing.php Any of you Liberty guys know if there is a 6PM Bike Night at the Landing in Liberty?

Daryl (and anyone else who cares), I kind of messed up and scheduled 2 demo rides at Letkos for Sat morning...forgetting it was the same morning of this ride. However, I think I can do both. I have a 9AM demo on a Husky SMR450 and a 9:30AM demo appt on a TE610. I should be finished by about 10:00AM....

I'm in on this one! What bike should I ride? Maybe I should ask who wants to lead me around, the dirt bike dudes or the big bike dudes?! Are you Lee, the guy who rides 1/2 mile wheelies on the big 950? If so, ride your big bike--it's a long ride and you can take the 950 places a lot of people can't...

I created a route that I believe starts at Byrd's River Retreat and ends at the point of White Rock Mountain. http://www.marengo-ltd.com/map2/index.php?route=466 The one part where my route is "fuzzy" is shortly after turning West from the cabin, the route turns North onto a rugged trail that is not...

If you head straight South from Eureka, you could ride through the huge windmill farm just South of Beaumont, KS. The Beaumont hotel (with it's grass landing strip and planes parked outside) is a landmark. The food ain't worth any praise really, but the place is interesting. http://www.adviaweb.com/...

On a path from Eureka, KS to Sipapu, NM, you could hit the Gypsum Hills near Medicine Lodge, KS and ride the open range of Ted Turner's huge buffalo ranch. In 2006, I enjoyed a ride with the Backroads Touring boys through the area. Here is their ride report from that trip: http://www.adviaweb.com/bt...

Chris, when your route file is ready, export to a GPX file, then upload into Marengo---then you can simply share the link so people can see the route and download the route file. One idea anyway. :)

Here are the routes that Sean prepared for the ride, and we pretty much rode exactly these until LONGB---which was riddled with dead ends and closed roads. (That was a LONG day, eh Mike & Kyle? But we did find that amazing swimming hole.) You can click the links to bring the route up in an easy-to-u...

Correct me if I am wrong, but that looks like a properly groomed Lhasa Apso. We own one but keep his hair cut short in the summer because he'll start pulling it out when it gets long.
