An overview of what the "Tour De Coalfields" Dual Sport/Adventure bike route hold in store for those who want to spend 2-3 days exploring.
This 350 mile loop thru the heart of WV offers a huge variety of terrain from twisty paved byways to challenging unmaintained forest tracks. I loved the variety the route offers and will be back as the seasons and views change to ride it again.

I noticed from McKendree Road at the start and what looked like Coal Rive trails at another point. I live in South Charleston and this would make a great 3 days weekend trip!
@nathan4wvu
@nathan4wvu 3 года назад
Well after reviewing the GPX file it's definitely not the Coal River trails. I can't wait to ride this one when spring breaks!
@Windblown

Three days would be just about perfect and allow a some time for additional exploration. There is some pretty nice camping along the route in places as well.

Hey man awesome ride. Just curious about what mods you’ve done to the exhaust. Sounds amazing

Thanks! I put an Arrow Decat on it. I'm still running the stock end can. Gives it a bit more bark.

Great looking ride! Those big bikes get heavy when harsh conditions arrive🤔 Would like to take my 690 on that ride, and leave my 1090 at home.
@Windblown
@Windblown 3 года назад
The 690 would open up some more exploring possibilities while in the area for certain. It was an 800 mile weekend on the bike though. I appreciate the comfort of the 790 when it's time to crunch miles! :)

@4:32 when you say "Wonder where that is?" I recognize it. There is an unkept graveyard there. I also recognized the guard rail on Mc Kendree rd and thought the same thing. Why a guardrail there of all places?

Hey Windblown, just came across this and good to see ya. Just finished (most of) WABDR and IDBDR on my DR. Rode with a 790 guy some of the way. I did some of the iMAT (Infamous Monongahelia Adventure Trail) routing on my WR250R this summer. The Tour de Coalfields must be a different thing? I’ll be back in Virginia soon. Maybe we can do a ride. DragonJoe.
@Windblown
@Windblown 3 года назад
How the heck are ya! Man, you and that DR are getting around. That's awesome you got to ride more out west. I'm not familiar with the Imat. Picked up this route from www.adventurehorizons.com I'm heading out to the SW US on the bike soon. I will be back mid November at the latest. Maybe we'll get n Indian Summer. Be great to get out for a ride with ya.

What is the pink error message we keep seeing off and on at the bottom of the dash?
@Windblown
@Windblown 3 года назад
I figured someone would catch that. ;) That's a MTC Failure" message caused by the fact that I was running my offroad wheelset which I don't run an ABS ring on the rear wheel on. When the bike detects no input from the rear ABS sensor the warning pops up. The reason I don't have an ABS ring on the rear on this wheelset is that having it removed is an automatic way to keep both ABS & TC disabled. I can dismiss the warning banner if I remember to hit the back button on the control after starting the bike. Sometimes I did, sometimes I didn't, which is why it appears in the video only some of the time.
