    Alex, I can totally relate to this video. I’m actually recovering from crashing my Tenere 700. Six broken ribs. Riding the big adventure bikes off road is not like lighter dual sports or motocross bikes. I know when I get back out there I’ll have to recover some confidence. In the meantime it’s watching others.

      Cheers man, get well soon. Best thing to do is to jump back on the horse as soon as you can.

      @@greenrush4313 amazing actually. Only issue is you are limited to around 160km or you can get a bad speed wobble due to the knobbies. Most people don’t ride that fast but the grip is really good pushing hard in corners too. I really love the tires just wished they lasted longer but then you wouldn’t have the same grip.

    Great video, I was going to suggest riding the R2 route of the 2024 ktm adventure rally at calabogie this year. Unfortunately, unless you already got your tickets, it's sold out.

    Great job filming/editing! This summer we did the Pick-Axe Loop in 2 days, a few months apart. I must admit that the northern section was tough. We went clockwise, running north out of Barry's Bay. That one steep hill, made up of nothing but baby head rocks, got the better of me. A little dent in the gas tank of my Tiger for memories! You guys handled it like champs!

    • @AlexUlleri
      @AlexUlleri  10 місяців тому +1

      Thanks man. The part in the video where I crash is the hill you are referring to. That is the toughest section of the whole trip for sure: loose baby heads. The steepness of that part just can't be captured on film, unfortunately.
