    I miss my dirt bikes. Sort of.

    I don’t miss loading bikes and gear in the truck, driving somewhere, unloading everything, riding, loading everything back up and driving home, unloading everything, cleaning things up and putting them away. Too much moving stuff around just to ride.

    I ride my smaller enduro to the trail unless I’m bringing a friend, then we load. 3-400 mile days happen all the time and I’ve camped off the bike as well.

    The Sherpa is a Kawasaki XT. Same-same. If it’s gotta be dual sport and 250

    Kawasaki KLX250
    Honda CRF250L (and rally)
    Yamaha WR250R
    KTM EXC250F
    Beta 125RR-S (more power than the XT)

    Everyone likes to tell me "you're too old for that bike." I just smile and say, "I know!"

    Any one know how to straighten a rim? A rim with spokes.

    I can do basic truing. For real bends, I sub it out to Woody's, as Ray said.

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?
