Lets see your NC OFFROAD!

[Chestnut]

I had to run up to Big Bear today and wanted to take a ride through some of the forest roads before they are closed for the winter, likely around November 1st. My NC700 is stock, including the original factory tires which have just over 8000 miles on them. The roads I was on were dirt and disintegrated granite with some sandy sections and some small rocky sections but the bike handled it just fine.

Very cool. Would love to pick your brain about similar routes in SoCal.

Really enjoyed the ride and scenery. Can you tell me what group made the music with the violin combined with the keyboard ? That tune was perfect for the video in my opinion. Thanks for sharing your ride.

Thank you! The songs, in order were
Hot Fire -Crash Kings
Wake Me Up -Avicii
Crystallize -Lindsey Sterling
Wake Up -Awolnation

The violin piece was Lindsey Sterling, she has some great stuff lindseystomp - YouTube

Bought a Drift Ghost, this is my first video with it. I may get better with later videos......probably not.

This is snippets of Pilot Rock RD Johnson 4891 and 4840. Pilot Rock Rd got its name from a near by rock formation that pilots use as a marker to the local airport. I was a week late on getting to see the really nice fall colors but there were still some good one on this ride. Nothing extreme on this ride. Just a typical Ozark county road.

NC Dirt Riding NM

Some of my dirt off road trips so far. I am very happy with the bike so far (had it about 4 months), I may not know any better but seems to handle things well, I still do not like sand though, now stock tires should help that. I Live in the Four corners region on NM, many many dirt roads and trails. I rode up to Moab last month and tried some of the trails there (no photos did not bring camera) and all went very well. There is something unique about being alone in the middle of nowhere, on a bike that is also perfectly at home going to the shops for some milk. I hope to have more photos in the future.

Beauty, ADW!

Some of my favourite motorcycle riding memories were in the Moab and 4Corners areas

You just can't beat the colour of the rocks there!

A home made rack for a mountain bike, the bike can lay flat on them. Also good for strapping dry bags to and have a few tools and puncture repair stashed inside.

It is an amazing place only moved here from Seattle this year, still getting acquainted with the place, actually live on the Navajo Reservation, wife works in the hospital here (Shiprock), only four hours from the grand canyon, two hours from Moab and in one hour I am in the southern CO Rockies.

Those tubes are for carrying a bike, a mountain bike can lay flat on the back. Works well bike sticks out only a little beyond the mirrors. Also attach dry bags to them for tips.

I just can not picture Brutus on the back of Nana Chou. Try to picture Motorcycle off spring with 26" by 4.5" tires?

Here is one from this weekend...

 

[iSlander]

Went for a small trip.

 

[Big Thump]

Not much for off road, but we did hit some hard packed dirt this weekend for about 3.5 miles, and got passed by a GS1200. Like I was standing still! He was part of the group looking for a missing plane down here in Florida. Met up with him at a park down the way.

 

[jeremysilas]

Found a dirt road today, this place would have been flooded last week after that big storm we had.
