It was great and had a blast! I just follow a lot of the local dealerships and adventure companies on instagram and they’ll usually post events. Also in a few Facebook groups for adv riding in my area.
Be careful, adv. riding is seriously addictive.🙂 So nice to be able to ride both long stretches of pavement or dirt on these things. Totally opens up the world to you. You're doing great, you must have some dirt bike experience. Great channel, subscribed. Great work.
Recently got a used bmw 800 here in Austin. This is exactly what me and my riding buddies are looking for! I absolutely want to do the one in October this year!
Nice video, now you have access to a whole other part of central texas. Unfortunately most of it is privately owned : ( Did the rally give you more confidence in your adv riding ability? What valuable lessons did you take away from the experience?
Thanks! Yeah I was able to ride some new terrain and get used to the bike off road which helped my confidence a lot. New tires are a must though if I want to keep doing off road rides. All around it was a great event.
Thanks! Yeah they are the Barkbusters with the storm guards. I got them from 3dcycleparts.com with the powder coat option so they’re a textured black instead of the raw aluminum.
To be BDR ready you’re gonna need a better tire than the stocker. It’s an amazing tire in every condition except mud, sand and rocks. Keep the content coming!
Yeah 100% agree, that tire can’t handle the tougher conditions. Mostly likely going to switch tires next time I get the bike serviced. Thanks! I appreciate it!
