True dat. If I was young enough to do a real adventure ride I'd do this: Sibirsky Extreme 2012 - The Toughest Ride of Them All - ADVrider

Or this:
RTW with Noah on a KTM 690 - ADVrider

But a man's gotta know his limitations so instead of the above I'll trailer to Colorado again this summer and ride some mountain dirt for 2 weeks with a hotel every night and then truck it home when I get homesick or run out of money.
