i don't suppose anyone from the NE has a dualsport and wants to find a route that is mostly offroad and will take a few days to complete. ???


i'm thinking it should be camping along the way and cooking food on a fire (or small campstove if you bring one)

originally i was thinking it would be cool to do it near a stream or somewhere that fishing could take place for food, but now i'm thinking MREs would be a better choice.


anyone?



ohh yeah, i'm going in 2 weeks. 8/22 - 8/25. I was thinking of doing whatever slab mileage i needed to do on thurs 8/21 so i can hit dirt right away on friday morn.

through dirt and mud....

i'm not opposed to riding a few hrs away (4-5) and meeting up with someone. however, i think halfway between us is closer to a 7 hr ride on the XR (i have to stop and give my ass a break every couple of hrs)

I don't know how well this is put together, but when I lived in NY it was getting going.
