Re: KTM Rally- Aug. 19-21- Deadwood, SD

Well I forgot to report back after the ride. Two words describe the area! Holy Cow! What a hidden treasure it was! If anyone is interested in maps and such let me know. Amazingly though SD keeps current maps on their website and when you purchase your off road sticker they have huge fold out maps as...

Re: New Eureka Springs, AR Dual-Sport & Mountain Bike Guide Service

Hey guys. It's funny that I stumbled upon this page right after I sent Troy a message to ask if I could promote a very similar business. The only difference is that it's my business and not word of mouth... I didn't want to step on any toes so stay tuned. I know of Corey and actually one of his old ...

Re: KTM Rally- Aug. 19-21- Deadwood, SD

I'm going, meeting a buddy up there who's coming in from Montana. No clue if i'm riding or not since i'm not sure how slammed work is going to be at that point. I can do 800 in a day no problem....but do I want to......in August...... Sorry I went silent... We had a change of plans slightly as well...

Re: KTM Rally- Aug. 19-21- Deadwood, SD

That's tempting. But 750 miles each way in a day...pretty sure my backside can't handle that & still ride 3 days. You got the right bike for that: R1200GS=cruise and nice plush seat. If I do go I'd have to split that ride up, night before to Sioux City, out and back. When did you go team orange?!? ...

KTM Rally- Aug. 19-21- Deadwood, SD

Is anyone already going to the Rally? If so I'd like to ride up with some others. I don't care to trailer up and the others that I'm meeting up there are either leaving too early for me or leaving from a different city. I'd like to leave ASAP on Aug. 18th to arrive in Deadwood at a decent time. Let ...

Re: Mountain Bike Thread

Riding Switchgrass tomorrow if anyone is interested. Find us in the camp ground. I'd say shoot me a text but I don't know if I'll have signal, or I'll pretending that I don't. You will find 2 BMW 1200GS's at camp along with a white and red car. We will start early but ride most of the day. eight one...

Re: Pre Fathers Day Ride

We're going to casually hang at Engels at 930 to get my buddy a new tire. Im not sure what our plans are after that. I'd like to try and go get as dirty as possible.

Anyone up for a little local riding this Saturday, June 20th? I was thinking to leave early morning. No planned route. Thoughts?

Re: Mountain Bike Thread

Very cool! When I chose the "RideForum.net" domain, it was purposeful that the name was not strictly motorcycle focused. I envisioned the possibility of sub-forums serving bicycle, atv, horse, etc. communities. I have no specific plans or agenda, but like the potential. Here is your new signature! ...

Re: Mountain Bike Thread

We rode Stocksdale sunday. I think we need to start a group text or something. I usually don't plan much ahead and just head out when I have a block of time. I rode again last night and made myself sick... I was having so much fun and my body eventually said :mrgreen:. I need to get back in shape!!!...

Mountain Bike Thread

I know quite a few of us cross over to other 2 wheeled contraptions. I do! I try to ride a few times a week either in KC and sometimes surrounding states, and it's time to start back up. Our next ride is tomorrow. March 15 at 9 ish at Smithville. Check out @kctrailsstatus on Twitter for trail status...

Re: 5 trails, 5 states, 5 days

Great ride report....thanks for sharing. This coming May I'm planning on riding my GS back East in the Great Smokey mountain area of North Carolina. Great GS riding but also some really good mountain bike riding. Thinking that I couldn't haul my MB on my GS, I've been looking into renting a MB at t...

Re: 2015 Off Road Riding Course

I just wish it was a little cheaper. I know it's costly to bring those guys in, and I know it's probably not feasible. Thanks for hosting this year after year. Hopefully I can attend at some point.

Re: 5 trails, 5 states, 5 days

I would ride Slaughter Pen. I've always wanted to and not been able. I'll shoot you a text. Good to meet you yesterday, Josh! It became horribly apparent how much I've let my conditioning go over this winter when I tried riding at Slaughter Pen yesterday. I guess I'm still stuck in the flatland fra...

Re: SUNDAY AFTERNOON JANUARY 25, WHERE DO YOU WANT TO RIDE?

Great that you guys have MTB trails open to ride. Except when it is below freezing, everything in Kansas City area has been closed for a month or so because of soft soil. With the warm weather, it seems that there has been only one or two cold weather opportunities to ride each week. I never though...
