Marty Hill Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Hey Pat, after I got home and rested for a few days I wandered down to cedar key and key west for a week. Going from 80 to 38 temps is not fun. Link to comment

AdventurePoser Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Well, actually yesterday...took a 295 mile loop with a passenger through the local mountains and deserts. Highs in the 80s and not too windy. About 30 of those miles were off pavement. My new Heidenaus were confidence inspiring in that environment. Plus, since they've got about 1000 miles on them now, they are much better behaved on the slab as well. Too much fun. Link to comment
roadscholar Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 On Saturday our local dualsport group CADS, did some basic GS offroad training at the BMW dealer. It was a good environment to get people more comfortable off pavement with the big bikes and by all appearances, worthwhile. Surely not as comprehensive as a BMW or Rawhyde class but it wasn't 500 bucks either. I'd noticed many new-to-dirt riders assumed off-road was similar to riding on pavement with less traction, the fact is it's almost opposite in some ways. We focused on 3 basic techniques, stand up (this is a revelation for anyone that hadn't been), look up (not down in front of the tire, and tough to make yourself do), and weight the pegs in the direction you want to turn. Then we went out and practiced the drills with some obstacles, all in all a fun day with some positive results. Some pics up on Adv, scroll down to about post #100. http://advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=884056&page=7 Link to comment
Huzband Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Went out for a few hours & finally got Halftrack of the tarmac for a bit. Found this nice little boat ramp on the St. Mary's River. I was impressed with the Heidenau's. Handled great even at road psi, but to be honest the sand was well packed due to all the rain we've been getting. Twas a good day. Link to comment
TEWKS Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Put the Heidenau's on my bike and I do like them off road but on road, I'm still learning to trust them. Lookin' good Danny! Pat Link to comment
