I don't know Mark well, but it's obvious that riding is a major part of his life--not just a side interest. From what he's told me, I gather that his work is something that will sometimes leave him jobless for a month or more at a time. He plans and uses that time for riding. He has a nice fleet of bikes to pick from for his rides, too.
He's done Baja, Mexico to Canada in the Rockies, the TAT, and a lot more. I tend to pay attention when he recommends a machine, mod, or gear because I know he has put it to the test--more than I will.

Mark's ride looks great. BTW, there may be a KTMTalk ride this fall in that area.
