Title: Easter dual sport ride
Post by: LT on April 01, 2018, 06:13:00 PM
Easter weekend riding, part II.
I rode with a friend out to Mt. Cheaha and headed South on Skyline Drive, FR600. Put in 170 or so miles, 40 of it dirt (and rock!) I asked if the road was big bike friendly. I should have asked if it was big bike capable, because it wasn't friendly at all! (See skid plate) If not for having loads of off-road experience I would have had a couple nasty dismounts. We got to see some nature because the sun finally came out. Oh, I rescued Olaf as well. I'm looking to adopt him out to a good home. The weather was perfect and I couldn't have asked for a better way to spend Sunday, though if my kids were here that would have been much better. That's two epic days of riding using home as the ride base.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180401/24c54393bfa47b3d1970f1661aea6c82.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180401/94a919aedabb224649b028f035a0ed80.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180401/eaa5dbf5d013563317d84a0988f015c1.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180401/0f3e72502771ea710790978e534231c4.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180401/a639e40c93077bdd653cda5797b08439.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180401/74f24192efe7ebd97cc102c478680e94.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180401/90eecedcea1049bb385de34f52acfbe7.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180401/4edadd02bfb559719693426ca13729f9.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180401/850a639f25e8af9cde829d92c372537a.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180401/2302d2e2d87b707f9eea2326c34d9e6a.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180401/8b9df39861e44fa4f2ae88d02958cdb6.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180401/9f02841fb5c9ca28bf33f1fbd716a9fd.jpg)

Wow ! Poor Olaf is going through some hard times. Maybe y'all can get him into a celebrity rehab.
