Hello folks! I've just completed BDR sections 1-3 and as expected from me, I got a ton of footage. I've decided to break it down into dirt road segments so the entire route is documented. I'll post some highlights as I go as well, but enjoy the full videos. For the people in the future - take these videos with a grain of salt, because as any dirt road, situation can change quickly after weather events, lack of road maintenance, or traffic. The first road of the BDR going south to north is Picacho Road. A good warmup, since it's a really easy freeway style road. Here it goes.

We should have coordinated who was all going from SDAR, would have said hi at the very least. This was my first time to Death Valley, beautiful place. I did the intro to DV ride on Thursday, nice tour that went to Ballarat, the kilns, Skidoo mine and Aguerberry lookout. On Friday we went to Darwin, some mines and cabins and up and over a snow covered peak into Saline valley? Saturday was a long day near Barker Ranch and into Badwater Basin. I had a good time, two pinch flats (I got quick at tube swaps). We had a minor mechanical issue with a bike in the group but some French tourists helped get the rider back to camp, we invited them to stay with us and enjoyed international relations by sharing our dinner and beer with them.
