Heading to the show this year, was wondering what the track was like - thanks 👍Mike

@antonio_89 21 день назад
@twowheeledadventuresuk2739 hi Mike, it isn't a very long track, more like an enduro track, but manageable on a bigger bike as well. I think there a couple of "extreme" sections, single track through the woods, a bit tight but still got through. Have fun

@antonio_89 20 дней назад
@twowheeledadventuresuk2739 you'll be fine on the CRF450, you're a good rider anyways. It's shorter than the ABR loop, but a bit more exciting. I think they also have some gpx files around the area, but not too many lanes.

I've watched others doing this section of the TET on 790's and bigger bikes. Totally stupid because those bikes are simply too heavy for anyone even without the extra weight of luggage. Riding solo is bliss. You can't do that if you can't man handle the bike in a difficult situation. A lot of bad talk about the 690's but I recon they are one of the most capable bikes for tough adventure riders. Get the bits that are wrong RIGHT and you have a very capable bike that you'll come to love. Well done Claudiu. I like your attitude and style.

Hey Claudiu, Super videos on your profile. I have a question, I'm searching a good tab and a good holder tab for my ktm690. How do you feel about your Samsung galaxy tab active 3 and your Brodit Holder ? Is the light of the tab and the robust of the holder is ok ? Thanks !! :)
@antonio_89
@antonio_89 6 месяцев назад
Hi, I used the tab active 2 for a year and I'm happy with it for navigation, now I bought a tab active 3, it is faster and has more internal storage. The brightness of the tablet is ok, even on sunny days. The brodit holder works great for me, it is fitted with ram ball and arms from aliexpress and ebay. Tab active 2 is cheaper, but if you can, buy the tab active 3.
@espacelibre2628
@espacelibre2628 6 месяцев назад
Ok thank you ! i noticed that the active 3 is better now, its logical. About the brightness of the tablet, I find that the "Carpe Iter" is one of the best tab for trips. Do you have an advice or a knowledge of it ? Thanks Claudio. And by the way, well done for the 3rd position with the husky on enduro race ;) @@antonio_89
@antonio_89
