    I'll have to do some editing, but I'll throw my vids up here later. Taking a stock vstrom 1k on this trail isn't the smartest thing but hey, neither am I.

    Wish I could have made it the whole trip but what little I did was awesome, I will be moving things around next year to make the full ride. 20171021_084228.jpg 20171021_102657.jpg 20171021_120425.jpg

    Shoot from your video of the off-road it makes me look like I know what I'm doing.

    Great ride. My first HNF not sure how many my bikes been to though. Didn't read directions and started at twin lakes in Saturday. Still had a blast. Rode till we ran into people going the right way. Awesome river crossing on Sunday. [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    The 4 of us that came down from Michigan had a blast ... thank you RoadDad !

    Enjoyed riding with friends, making new ones and catching up with everyone.

    None of us from Michigan got any HNF stickers so I'll look you up at the Loose Nut RoadDad and see if you have any left.

    Good Times!

    I'm so glad that 1trak invited me to join him on this ride. Beautiful country and great hospitality from all the Indiana folks had the pleasure of meeting and talking with. Thanks to everybody involved in organizing and putting on this great ride. Special thanks to Austin and his family for letting us camp at and enjoy his farm. I'll be back for sure.

    Just talked to some officials and right now only a yz250x 2-stroke is allowed on the horse trails only if knobbies are switched to environment friendly street tires.

    Sounds like a good way to piss a bunch of people off riding on horse trials.

    Those horse people get pissed when they see our motorcycles on the public roads in the forest because they think they own the forest. I say fuck them.
