Played around in the dirt today, and even a little mud!  I'm still trying to get the hang of this video making business, but here's my best effort.  Even did a little slow motion action with a little air time.  :)   Enjoy!

The only guy in the world that can use an old RE 700cc road bike like a Scrambler. And survive with it. Great video.   ERC

Well, as my friends tell me, I'm not like most people.  In fact, this isn't the first street bike I made dirt road capable.
Observe Exhibit A. 1983 Suzuki GS550 ESD with Dual Sport tires.  I took that bike all over Rocky Mountain back country, this pic was taken on what the locals call Holy Shit Road.  It's a fun one!


The view from this dirt road when you turn around.  Elevation about 12,000'


Nice Vid! But you're gonna get it dirty doing that.

Thanks!  But I'm not worried about getting dirty, I have free access to the car wash across the street!  Besides, I didn't get nearly as dirty as this from last year.    ;D



Fun!

Yes it is!    :D

At 1:50, I thought you were doing to get wet! A little target fixation there?. Nice save!

Actually the front tire hit a rock buried in the mud and almost washed out on me!  I did get a muddy foot tho.  Lol
