Re: Independence Day Weekend Ride

Just sharing some more random pictures. Everybody has probably had their fill by now but....... This is me running out of gas on I-70 before I even met up with Troy. He said later to me he was wondering what he got himself into by agreeing to let me ride with him, can't imagine what he was talking a...

Re: Independence Day Weekend Ride

Thanks for putting this together Troy. Saturday was fantastic. I learned a lot about the capabilities, or lack thereof, of the 650 Vstrom when travelling on gravel. The highway sections, on the other hand, were a blast. Lunch and dinner were fantastic as well. Sunday didn't go quite as well. I ende...

Re: Independence Day Weekend Ride

I am going! At hospital now. I looked back through all the posts, but still can't make sense of this. Did you get hurt at some point too? No, sorry. My daughter went to emergency room this morning and I was replying to Troys post as he knew what was going on. I should have clarified or not mentione...

Re: Independence Day Weekend Ride

Thanks, and yes I borrowed my sons FTs last two trips to Colorado and they worked pretty good.

I have a mesh jacket with a liner but it's kind of a joke I think.

I have rain worthy gear for colder weather but sure wouldn't want it this time of year.

Time to go shopping.

Re: Independence Day Weekend Ride

Good news, Scott. Fingers crossed. Carl (and all) I will be riding S on Thursday. You could join me. How early on Thursday can you head out? I want to hit the road by 3pm or so and really take my time on the backroads getting to Joplin. Forecast is still stacked against us. Rain starts Thur PM and ...

OK, if you want to "ride" down together let me know.

Will do. I'd feel much more comfortable riding in a group for a 3 hour pavement ride.

Yep!

Re: Independence Day Weekend Ride?

Sounds great, I would be riding to Joplin not hauling unless someone wants to share expenses if they have room for another bike and person. PM me if so.

Looking to Ride This Weekend?

Hey, I haven't been on here or had a dual sport in so long no one likely knows or remembers me, and that's ok. I have just acquired a new to me 2011 DR650 and would love to ride it with one or more peeps anytime this weekend. Anyway, I could go for a few hours or all day. I know there isn't much to ...
