Wisconsin Field and Forest Kettle Moraine Dual sport ride

It's Sunday October 16th this year! Mark your calenders for the only dual sport ride in SE Wisconsin! It'll start from Mike's Motorsports in Allenton this year.

The Ride is SOLD OUT.

Here's some teaser pics from years past

Did I miss the registration deadline? I see nothing on the website and sent them an email last week with no reply.


Thanks,

i will be there. maybe on the gs if i cant fake a street legal mx bike. i dont remember it being to difficult, except for the mud.

More pics from the last three years of this awesome ride...

2008

And yes, I now know not to take my feet off the pegs and let them drag in the water out of fear, it was only my second DS ride ever.







2009

Frost can makes things fun!





Mud hole rescue mission, for my dad of all people... neener neener




2010










What happens when three chicks go into a hero section unsupervised? The most laughter we had all freakin day.
Btw, love your wife's pink outfit in that pic, Salty.

Guess I'll hafta see if I can make the 3 hunny street legalish. The 450 didn't finish last year due to electrical gremilns, I did get to go back early and help cut and sample, er serve the pies though.

What is a good sized bike for this? Is a f650dakar too big for someone that doesn't do a tone of dual sporting?

Thanks, Lojack

i would say yes, if you dont ride off road much but depends how much you hate your bike and at what point things stop being fun.

i have done it on a dr650 and it was fun but i passed on a few of the hero sections.

I love my bike. But it's a pig. Did the T.W.A.T this summer and enjoyed that section that was in a dirt bike trail cluster. But that was only a couple short miles. I've got Karoo's on there right now, the rear is at least half worn. I might think about getting a new rear tire on if I'm going to do this.

Thanks, Lojack

New tires would really help... Especially if its muddy.

yeah, if this rain keeps up, I doubt it'll be all that dry. Thanks for the form. Lojack

I'm (we) already signed up and ready to go!!! This is a blast of a ride

Is it still roll charts to navigate???

YES! Good point.

Lojack- If you want to get fancy, Pick yourself up a roll chart holder... such as this. Other lower tech solutions are taping the roll cahrts to your bike, Sticking them in a tank bag map pocket, or just following someone...

i prefer the follow someone option....hey ben can i follow you?

If anyone could even keep up with Ben, it'd be you.

I/we are so looking forward to it. All this rain should make things interesting, although maybe the rain will give that sandy hill a little more traction this year. Who were those two clowns pushing that KTM in Zora's picture anyway?

Heh heh heh... Suuuuuure.

been there done that with cjracer:eek1. no thanks. i'lll find my own way. the arrows will have to do.

Well, I ordered one, But its on backorder so I don't know if it will show up in time. You could always follow me on the road sections and run ahead or hang back a bit off road.

Though I totally haven't ruled out riding the donkey either.
