PA C K I N G U P
Our two-day ride was over far
too quickly. We saw some amaz-
ing sights and rode on some
great off-road trails that weren't
too challenging but just enough
to make you feel like you did
something. I'm certainly fired up
to do something like this again.
So, if you're ready for a change
or something to re-spark your
interest in motorcycle riding, then
give ADV riding a try. And don't
be intimidated by what you see
on the Internet. You don't have
to take your ADV down rugged
single-track trails, cross raging
rivers, or jump massive tree logs
to have fun on an adventure
motorcycle. All you need is just a
sense of adventure, even if that
simply means cruising down an
unimproved county road and, of
course, staying out of the ruts.
If these words aren't enough
to get you pumped on adventure
riding, maybe these photos will.
See you out there.
