Default Heres a dual sport ride for you

Interesting trip, I would like to do one I read about a while back. Its an adventure ride that goes from the Canadian border all the way to the Mexican border. It may have been the Continental Divide Trail but I will need to go find the story again. This is a different one but the same way I think.

Except for all the tire/tube changes, it looks like fun.

Yes but at least its not too hard to fix them. Not like trying to fix a flat on a goldwing. I am leaning towards a dual sport for the next bike but it will probably be a wr450 I will convert since we will probably trailer them to where ever we go since the bigger road worthy ones are a bit big in the dirt.

Here's another one from Big Dog Adventures.... I'm hoping to do part of this ride this fall, or maybe next spring. The TransAm Trail:

Yes that's another good one. I read about several of the rides he has on his site.

That first one is from the mexican border to canadian border. They actually run through my town, and up then up the devide. VERY interesting ride. I would love the GPS route to follow the parts in my area.

I think you can get it from one of the guys who did it on the adventure riders board.
