Yes, 17's would be fine. These are usually rides that could be done on any street bike. Just more fun on a bike w/ longer suspension...
you know that you just threw down the gauntlet? :amazon:

Those two miscreants will now likely come up with a dastardly ride :doh:

:whoop: :whoop:

@Bucho Yes, that was the shortened version that you guys did. You also did a longer version that I test rode, the one that I got a flat tire doing and called you when I thought I might need a tool. It was decided that that version was too long for Code's ride. As I recall it took me a little over 8 hours to complete, not counting the time I spent replacing a tube.

@BigBird Yes, the shortened version was not bad for the 'wing but the full version had some roads that you could theoretically get that thing down it wouldn't be any fun for you.

I know I've been out a bit, 2nd kid does that to you, but I'm almost back.. The XR and Ktm 990 are gone, but my 620 is almost on the road...mends a clutch and a carb clean...

I still have all the old routes. I also put together two new ones...

I'm in the process of building a new computer, and have a new GPS system...

If you guys give me till end of February, I can post up all the routes.... I'd be glad to help, and the plan is to show up.....

GOOD to hear from you. I'm thinking it makes the most sense to use your routes with maybe some mods/updates. It has been a while since we did any of them and the OFG with CRS can barely remember them except that they had some good stuff. So some reuse would be like NEW to me! End of Feb should be fine!
