I'm ready to leave MS Teams, workstations, data, and strategy behind for a few days.

We're leaving at 5am to drive to Pagosa Springs and then on to Ridgeway on Friday 8/7. Follow along for a few photos. :coffee:

Once we land I'll be on a KTM 690 and Heather (Mrs. Pigtrail) will be on a KTM 350.

....that was her a few mods ago. Stay tuned!
 
I'll be following, impressed you can get the 690 in with tailgate up!
 
Looks like greatness..

Jealous but happy for you.

Have a blast.

15 short hours later and we’re in Pagosa Springs. Smells amazing and the air is COOL.

Next to us at this refurbished motel is a new Defender with 30. Haven’t seen one of these before.

I think I like the look and function of the new Bronco better - perhaps targeting different buyers
 
Awesome. What do you carry with you for those day rides in terms or repair items?

Front and rear tube, 3 tire irons, pump, med kit, snacks, tools to change tire and do basic repairs, a big trash bag to lay parts on, 4 large zip ties (you never know), and camelbak full of water. Phone and riding buddy are a given.

Cool, thanks. Still putting my little bike bag together.

After seeing the fun y'all have and seeing all the little bikes having fun at the Redneck Ramble, I ended up getting a lightly used Husky FE 450 and I'm having some fun with it. Just did some more single track with it again yesterday. Really getting into that now and starting to think about trips for it. This thread is giving me all kinds of ideas, thanks for posting it.
