Took the Scrambler out for about 190 miles yesterday around Coldspring, Point Blank, Cut & Shoot and Waverly. Basically just out enjoying the weather, hitting up some good old roads and exploring some new ones. Stayed mostly on pavement today because the roads were still a little soft and my tires are a bit too road biased for those conditions… and probably my skill level.

Same ramp, Sep 23, 2023.
Crazy difference in water levels…
The boy and I checked out Let's Ride Ranch out in Buckholts, its a great spot for some dirt therapy. I'll be back on the street bike just to cruise out there, great drive out.

Well I took their word on conditions after the rain, lol. Really the "dry" parts were awesome, but it had several extremely difficult swamp areas. First one I met on 1st lap took my friends advice and went in a sink hole. Mud literally to top of front tire. Took 4 guys to drag it out. Cost me front fork seals, lol! Picture with all us dragging my poor bike out is mine, close up picture is another lucky guy!

Down to coast with a friend. Took him on some deep gravel for 5 miles . I don't think he enjoyed it . I ride the RS that saw 72 mph on the gravel that day .

Thanks, Kirby is a great asset to offroad community.
Yesterday was a perfect day for a ride. Oil change is a good excuse to go break in the new fluid.

Took this old ZZR1200 back to a customer today. Front steering bearings replaced , fork oil changed , Throttle mister adjusted to function properly.
Afterwards rode the BMW R1250RS to homedepot for electric dimmer switch.
What a refined motorcycle to the ZZR.
Both very quick machines

Home to Clarksville and back via 12,23,412,16,74,43…all the usual suspects..
Long views from 1450, near Red Star and 7 near the cabin overlook. War Eagle looks good near Huntsville.
250 miles, windy and 34MPG.

Great photos as usual. 34 mpg normal? Is that twisting hard or regular riding.

Regular riding. I don't speed much on public tarmac. Off-road, this is not a beginner's bike..
