Hi all,
I am retired (read old) from 30 years service in a bike shop. I now ride bikes in the summer and snowmobiles in the winter. Living in N Idaho (25 miles from Canada) we have a six month winter so bikes are stored waiting for spring. My wife also is a rider and does a great job of keeping up.
We do have a road bikes but prefer dual sport because there are no f n state cops in the backcountry.
We have ridden the cont divide, Whit Rim trail (and another 1100 dirt mi in Utah), Kettle Valley railway, Burgdorf/French ck and the McGruder/Darby road last season along with many overnighters into Hells Canyon. Thinking about the TAT and Baja (?)for this next season.
I ride a KTM 950 Super E and my wife has a new KTM 690SMC (lowered).
Wishing a safe ride for everyone and no tickets.
