padu replied to Ken S's topic in Informal Local Rides & Who's Going Riding!
Any interest on doing a 24 mile loop around Plaster City afterwards? I have the GPX of last year's King of the Desert D38 race. I'd be on my KTM 500 EXC -

Gortex Jacket or Cordura with Rain Suit
Oracle replied to Goofy Footer's topic in Personal & Riding Gear
I prefer the Gortex gear over carrying an extra rain suit. I hate bulk and extra layers and the gortex (in my case, the older version of the Klim Carlsbad) has always worked pretty well for me riding through storms in Arizona, Utah, Colorado, California deserts, etc. And the newer Carlsbad jacket has more and better venting than the one I currently have making it an even better option. Goofy, send me a PM for info on a possible Klim discount. -
Welcome to the forum.

Cool bike, I don't know if we have any other Pan America owners here but we have plenty of big bike owners and rides that are big bike capable. Welcome to the group, see ya on the trail.

Hi my name is Branden aka Ruckuss, I am a Navy Service member and have been riding motorcycles for about 16 years. I have had many different bikes from super sports to Touring. A little over a year ago I purchased my 2022 HD Pan America. I primarily ride on the paved roads but have also got to venture out on some solo adventures on fire roads and ohv trails. I am looking for other riders that might be able to help me expand my skills in ADV riding. Hope to meet up with some of yall on the road (or off!).

Updated: Two-Fer Tuesday "Romantic" Black Mountain Night ride August 9th
cmbthumper replied to Bub_Hannah's topic in Informal Local Rides & Who's Going Riding!
Unfortunately i can't but definitely next Tuesday. I don't edit my videos so they are long but this will give you an idea of the road. Last time i went up the last mile of the road was blown out with rocks and ruts everywhere. Worse i have seen it in years. Nothing difficult just need to pay attention to your lines more. -
Sedlak Offroad School - Sep.30.2023
padu posted a topic in Upcoming Organized or Promoted Rides and Events
I've done several, and I always come back for more. The terrain is fantastic, and Daniel and Edgar are spectacular instructors. No matter your level, you will take new skills and techniques home and be more confident in your next ride. Highly recommended. https://www.sedlakoffroadschool.com/book-your-event/adv-sd -

How about tomorrow (9/26/2023) evening? I have zero knowledge of the route... does anybody have a GPX or some pointers about the route? -
Another afternoon weekday ride 09/21/23
dirt dame posted a topic in 1 to 3 Day Ride Write-Ups, Stories and Photos
It was one of those rides, where your buddy says "it's just a mellow, easy" ride. I should always know better, but I keep being hopeful. Hopefulness gets you nowhere, and the ride was actually one of those where your trail leader stops every ten minutes to assure that "this is the worst part of the trail and the rest will get easier", or "it wasn't like this, last time I rode it". I'm sure that most of us have been there at one time or another, probably either when you very new to riding or when you finally got old enough to value self preservation over proving that you still "got it". Well...at least it was mostly all downhill...and of course, I didn't die. Sorry, no pictures of the tough parts. I was too busy clawing and bulldogging my bike down those sections. -
Gortex Jacket or Cordura with Rain Suit
KTMrad replied to Goofy Footer's topic in Personal & Riding Gear
I've always worn a rain suit to go over my riding gear, I prefer that to goretex garments. Also, goretex does not breathe well, so if it's not raining you overheat. Olympia makes a good outer rain suit jacket, and Aerostich makes a good outer rain pant. Be aware, all outer rain suits must be cleaned and reconditioned about once a year to remain effective and keep you dry. Nik Wax makes a reconditioning kit (Tech Wash) to restore the waterproofness of your rain suit. -

Motorcycme Cannonball Challenge Finishes This Weekend in Oceanside
robertaccio replied to KTMrad's topic in Open Discussion
Enduro Legend Jeff Fredette was in on a H-D but I just saw that he DNF after bike complete failure. Of course he had some repairs already completed to get as far as he did. Cool event I was following this on the sidelines this year, mostly because AMA HOFr off roader Jeff was in the mix. -

Gortex Jacket or Cordura with Rain Suit
DSM8 replied to Goofy Footer's topic in Personal & Riding Gear
Put simply. Gotex jacket the liner will eventually wear out and be less water proof over time. Requires treament and maint to get the most out of it. One good crash can damage the liner to the point it not longer works as designed and you have $700 jacket that is not what it once was but still good enough to use. I use the revit rain gear, and have it large enough to wear over my riding gear. Packs down to the size of a soda can and also can be put on as a layer when cold out. Cheap to replace and can be repaired with seam tape if needed. Mine has lasted me for thousands of miles of use. I gave up on the gortext and other waterproof jackets, they always ended up being too hot/heavy for many times of the year. Only exception is my Aerostich, I use that to commute to work. Would not want to wear that on a multi day off road ride. My.02 I use this in the oh what the **** is that Yellow XXL size to fit over all my gear and easy to get in and out of
