Kudoos to KTM Mike - he's got bigger stones than me to ride the 990 through there the long spot in your video has a solid bottom this hole is worse - I took a bypass around it on KLX450 ( to left in pic) watched a atv churn through it -Nasty later.........
Did you go back and ride the trail again after we went through it? Ya not sure i would want to try and go through it, get stuck and eaten alive .
LOL that IS the hole in the vid, we went through from this view, the log on the left is the one that my wife and i got hung up on, it extends about 6ft into the water........ Lots of fun Any of you guys get out riding during the week? Ever ride the area between 118 and 60, east of 11 all the way over to 35? My schedule is flexible, wknd or wkday
Well i am working this week, but next week sure sounds good. Also i know that weldit has some days off. Send me a PM and see what we can do for next week. Also i think we are going riding (weldit and dennis) on the 25th weekend. Not sure where but here and there.
No I wasn't back there again - found that pic posted by a KLR 650 rider as far as "Ever ride the area between 118 and 60, east of 11 all the way over to 35?" No - but: lots of riding north of Hwy 60 -Limberlost - Kearney - Burks Falls also did a day ride through Dwight - Dorset - Livingston Lake this is Vcrash's neck of the woods as far as " Ya not sure i would want to try and go through it, get stuck and eaten alive" check this guy - nasty!
I am on the three shift schedule for this week - maybe next - what a Joke !! anyway this week I am free wed - next week I am free mon & tues would love to get out for a ride also free every weekend got my Acerbis tank for KLX - holds almost 12L to the brim - much better! are you familiar with "the area between 118 and 60, east of 11 all the way over to 35" later..........
Good to hear that you can now run more then 100km like the middle boys (me at 13L, big boys have 25+L) Should be home (Huntsville) this weekend unless more work/ money comes my way . If so we should go and find so pre mudding for the weekend. I will let you know later this week. Also i was going to drop off the gas can today but left it in the car and now it is in Sudbury with me. Not that you should need it any time soon Mr. 12L. If you need one i have a spare at the house? PM you if i can make a ride next week.
I HOPE MY TANKS GETS HERE SOON AS WELL. ORDERED A CLOCKWORKS 13 L .JUST BOLTED ON RALLY CONNEX 1 1/4" BAR RISERS AS WELL ,NICE .JUST FIX MY KNEE AND GOOD TO GO STILL LOOKS GOOD FOR 25 TH.WE MAY NEED A MOWER FOR AHMIC TRAIL!!!
good news on your tank Dennis - hope it gets here before 25th I looked up the one I remembered on the ODSC classifieds site it was a 6.3 gallon - big one 23.8L - good for the desert maybe? Ontario Dual Sport Club View topic - FS - KTM Acerbis 6.3 Gallon Tank; Natural ('08-'10) would be a good plan to pre-run some trail on east side of hwy 11 so we might make a loop from Nipissing trail to Trout Creek then take Forestry road around to Burks falls on Dead Horse Trail this section is all logging road but from Burks falls south I know a few trails But it's been a couple years and things change a lot when ATV's are involved around Kearney there is a lot of ATV traffic as they have a club now The section from Burks falls to Kearney was not bad - 2006 we met a 67 year old guy on a Harley sportster all covered in mud coming out Kent's mill rd The sportster was his "offroader" - had pictures of "the big bike" -full Harley roadking YOU NEVER KNOW WHO YOU'L MEET??? --------------- Step -I know you can't wait to cross the water just west of 11 at least this time - DAYLIGHT would be good! if it's too deep -after all the rain - there is a bypass up the hydro cut --------------------------------- I haven't been over around Kearney since '08 - but a guy that lives there tells me that some of the trails that he used to just drive down to go fishing are now so nasty that he turned back last year on his Yamaha Rhino - need to see? I know the 101b skidoo trail around Willie lake was like that in '08 - good in '06 the logging roads usually hold up better - just a few washouts etc -------------------------- later....
Im tied up for the rest of June but open any time in July, If you guys want to set something up date wise we can start at my place and spend at least a day between Dwight, the park and Baysville, most of the trails have been gated however ive got permission and all of the combinations! Im sure some of the southern guys may also want to come up. vcrash
Ya would like to do some water crossing but in the daylight too . Does not look so deep and scary in the daylight vs headlight. So both of you guys got bigger tanks so you can hang with me and my huge tank . Now all you need is some power to match . Ordered my Trackmaster so watch out and stay in front or feel the wrath. I am sure i am working in Sudbutynext week this job is bigger then they thought, fools think i am superman . Oh well we will have fun on the 25th.
Step: Quote" i am working in Sudbutynext week this job is bigger then they thought, fools think i am superman" Don't feel bad the Morons at the plant think I'm a magician ! or they must - as they constantly want me to make Honey out of cat shite Vcrash - sounds good - last ride out there for me was when you had the xr600 - 1998 ?
i think i remember the ride although foggy! is that the ride were santowski turned an endo into a summersault and landed on his feet?

The ride out Dwight way ended with someones wife passing out in the night from super strong pain killers. sound familiar?
I suspect that my rear rack is in the post office as well the tank was delivered to my door by DHM delivery the guy said they were getting extra work from the strike save up a couple of the 2L pop bottles -easier on the back than Jerry can
Are we still on for this weekend riding? can ride the rest of forgotten trail or do a ride here I am ok with whatever - just not to early in the morning! the guy in this pic is saying " are any of you pussies going to follow me?":eek1
