My buddy is putting on a mellow Dual Sport ride in two weeks down in S/D Jay, I'll get all the details for you.

I'll be there.

moto ing as much as life permits, about once a week on average. I have great rides right out of the garage if anyone wants to come this way. I could lead an amazing dual sport ride too. Been ripping my BRP a lot. Hoonfest in a few months and I will be at that for sure. Rode Rico this summer as well as Durango. I'll be hitting some Stoneyford as I get snowed out of some of my local stuff and I'm going to try hard to ride with Mojo and the NW boys for the 4th of July.

I ride alone way too much because everyone who used to ride is stopping, I'm looking into getting a spot or something. keep us informed on the dual sport I have an unused hall pass right now.

Hey last I checked round is a shape! Certainly does pertain to me these days...:lol:

My next outing is Thanksgiving - going to be camped off Trona Rd / 395.
The CR500 is an acquired taste. If you don't like it, acquire some taste...

But open for a group ride.

I can do the 17th but where the hell you guys going?

Jay says Desert, Bob south S/D pretty far apart.

I've only done a couple of des rides (Anderson dry lake) a couple of months ago. Last race was in March.

Way down south? Im out then. I could do Pala and it would be fun for all.

rode the 650 and the 500 this weekend...still gettin it!!!

That 650 swallows whoops like nothing else on the planet. I was dicing through the woods chasing a 26 year old on a 450....I'm loving that 650 as much as I love the 500.

I like it too, Jay's had the right idea for a long time. My 500 still feels 150# lighter though.

Those guys ended up having a great S/D D/S ride after all over the weekend. I'll get some photos from them and post them up.

I was too busy to go...

I love the 500 for it's light feel, but it really likes to be riddin not lollygagged. I ride alone a lot, most of my old riding buddies have basically quit. The 650 is cool because you can just cruise but if you catch up to people or something the thing will get down. Ultra stable at speed, swallows whoops while sitting down drinking a soda and quite nimble for its size. Its a good trail maker too...you go through one time and it's pretty much established. I'm working on a new trail that will be about 45 miles when finished, really technical and through a section of hills that is esentually untouched. Plenty of quad filters and ultra sneaky entrance.

Despite sampling large amounts of Elsinore dirt over the weekend, my appetite for riding is restored. A track day or dual-sport (green sticker) ride would be great! Please post.

I don't live close enough or I would post up weekly....I ride right out of the garage and have some great trails...more in the works. 2 pretty decent tracks both maintained are rideable from the house as well.
