A heart for the mountains, but a home in Northern Illinois. Our family lives hours from the nearest National Parks, thus our goal is to find nearby activities for the afternoon or an extended adventure. Highlighting local hikes, Midwest adventures, gear, projects & the great outdoors!

TW200 - Northern WI Adventure Trail
Переглядів 4,8 тис.2 роки тому
A three day adventure on the Northern WI Adventure Trail on TW200's. Camped two nights, fished, and enjoyed some amazing trails and country roads. Had a chain break on the first day and one had to take the other bike for hours to get a replacement. Returned and fixed it in the woods and continued on with a great adventure!!
TW200 - Richard Bong State Recreation Area (First Trail Ride)
Переглядів 3273 роки тому
First trail ride on my "new" 2002 Yamaha TW200. The ride was at Richard Bong State Recreation area in Southern Wisconsin. I was the only one on the trails for most of the time during a weekday afternoon. As it was my first time out, I took the trails rather slowly at first but enjoyed getting to know the bike on a variety of terrain. There are more challenging single tracks as well as wider dir...

It is a great 1.7 mile hike along tributaries and wetlands to the Fox River, including a walk along the river's edge.

Would be fun to do an alll TW TWAT ride!
Nice video! I enjoyed it.
Loved the video! TWs in their natural environment!
Nice video. What's the back story on the chain break. Master link fail, hit rock, worn, how many miles on it?
I had mentioned earlier than my friend should tighten his chain... it looked loose. We rode about 45 minutes into our day on a gravel backroad and his chain just snapped. Fortunately, we were rolling distance from a empty WI state campground where I set up the hammock and fished/relaxed for hours while he had to ride my bike 2.5 hours south to the nearest town with a chain. Fortunately, we both learned how to change a chain and our trip continued!!
That’s really cool. I live in northern Wi and ride, and I’ve never heard of this trail.
Definitely worth checking out next season. Here's the website: www.travelwisconsin.com/adventure-sports/northern-wisconsin-adventure-trail-228910. I also took my daughter on the Trans Wisconsin Adventure Trail in our Bronco to take in the fall color. Its a great trail through WI as well!!
I'm in Rockford. Just got a TW. Found a bunch of hidden atv trails in the area
Good Living. ❤
Very nice video, guys! How tall are riders?
Sorry for the delay... 5'10" and 6'2". We've taken them on a lot of trips... will be posting more videos.
@@northernillinoisoutdoors2760 thank you for the answer! I am already bought the tw200. I was afraid that i am too tall for this bike. I am 6'.. It looks a little bit small, but i feel good on it.
Was this twat?
I love seeing tdubs decked out for a camping trip!
Nice video. Looks like a nice area. One of my goals is to visit and hike every state park,well IDNR site that has hiking trails.
