- Very muddy! The bad rain from the previous night was laying heavily on the trail, it was pretty much a fight from start to finish - with the last couple of hours being quite epic! Mostly waterlogged farm tracks, which were not too bad, but, oh dear, the stretches of woodland were a nightmare! The rain sits in those woods for ages, it doesn't have the same drainage as the fields, and the sun struggles to penetrate the denser ones, which = lots of MUD! Anyway, no harm done, all good character building stuff!
Nice, yep, im the same. Im on the USA and ride our BDR's...aka backcountry discovery routes. Very remote country, bears. Cougars. Moose, deer, elk and so on. I dont ride hard, just relax for about 10 days and enjoy. Im on my 50's, all my fast and furious days are over. Plus I dont like to pick up my loaded bike by myself much either. Thanks for sharing.
I'm 55 and already have far too many injuries - I don't need any more! Slow is your friend when you're on your own!
Amazed how many fallen trees you came across. It must have been those recent storms. Always carry a little manual chain saw with me but that wouldn't have made any difference in your case. Nightmare in one sense, but all part of the journey in another!
I do have a big knife - but anything over a couple of inches and i just turn round! I think i found about 10 tree blockages in total, no big deal really, like you say 'all part of the journey' 😃
Great Stuff - wanna go there from Germany in September for a prolonged weekend. Thanks for the insight!
Thanks my friend, and cheers for the sub!
Nice videos, thanks! How do you like the Husky? Reliable during your trip?
It's a fantastic bike mate. I have done about 14k on it and the only problem I have ever had was a loose sidestand switch, which was an easy bypass. It's great on the trails and can do 70mph on the highway, so it's pretty versatile.
