I had to turn around at the snow line and on the way back I had a little difficulty in some slick mud with my Scorpions!

Luckily I had an extra mirror back in my garage and except for a few bruises it was a free crash.

I love this bike. This is going to be a good summer. It is great to be home!
What gears are those you're wearing?

My club put on our annual spring Berkshire Big Adventure ride this past weekend. I got to ride my new bike off road a lot. This pic is from the start area. It was pretty cool seeing 150 bikes lined up in a row ready to go. There were at least a dozen 990/950's participating so I got to check out a number of other orange lover set ups.

...and what is just as amazing is how many folks from long ago still have ADVs.

It seems some brand owners change bikes like underwear..and some bike models change so quickly/frequently you can't keep up.

The Adventure's tenure has been remarkable!

Congrats Dgrs2 - this post has been an inspiration to many and a great way to initiate others to the orange kool-aid.

Case in point, worked late unbolting old parts and bolting new parts the other night to get this beast ready for battle today. Started out like this...

Then saddled up and went WFO down the FTR with the BK. Just got back. Multiple spills in the tough stuff but a good day. Thanks BK - great ride.

Those are some sharp looking bikes. What is it about Canadians and their tricked out Adventures?
