I think that might be the old site for NVTR (now renamed to WATR - Washington Area Trail Riders).  Here's the current WATR Yahoo Group that I'm subscribed to:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/watr_members/

And here's the website: http://nvtr.webs.com/

I joined WATR last year, primarily as a way to support their annual Eagle Bay Trail Ride in King George, which is an outstanding event that I've done for the last several years.  Eagle Bay is off-road only, but I think WATR also sponsors the annual Shenandoah 500 Dual-Sport event. The WATR guys seem like a great group, and they are very active - I see both off-road and dual-sport events (formal and informal) posted almost every week.

If I could figure out how to get a title for my CRF 250X (which is otherwise street-legal), I'd join you guys on some DS exploring (as long as it's more off road than on).

You gotta love this site - got a little bit of everything, including some guy riding through puddles.


And yes, of course I just watched said video.  Grin Nice production values!

Planning on a ride this weekend, Saturday might be rainy but it will also be (relatively) warm. Haven't decided on a route yet, maybe Frederick Municipal Forest or new roads around Harpers Ferry...
