paulmbowers 236 Posted January 29, 2015 I hate to ask trite and cliché questions, but : Anything that'd prevent the average village idiot from doing this on a motorcycle larger than small? Something like a Australian 1000cc v-twin? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kato 53 Posted January 29, 2015 It's not the arrow...it's the indian this. you're a good indian Id say plan on less miles per day on a bigger bike, but you can make it everywhere. I wasn't going for the easier ways obviously but most of the tougher stuff is always bypassable (e.g. cleghorn is basically a 2-in-1 trail, always an easy way & a fun way. really fun sometimes). ElPaso mtns can get challenging as well but there too if you come upon a tough climb you can just turn around and find another trail.

Goofy Footer 536 Posted February 1, 2015 Sounds like a great trip Kato. Solo riding in the boonies can be fun - total freedom to explore wherever you brapp. When I drove back from DV towards LA along the 14 I was amazed at how much riding and open there is the that part of the high dez. I'd never been that way and could see miles and miles of trails - I'm glad you were able to connect the dots for a sick ride up. How can I save the route you posted in google maps? I don't even know how you posted it on google maps. Looks good man! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
