Default Bear ride

Went out last night to see if we could find any bears on the trails.My buddy on the Xr 650 took the lead.

We rode up to the top of the mountain(mountain for nova scotia)

Then found this little trail down to a brook

Then realized the trail was not the right one had to cross the brook and UP the other side not pretty.The XR got stuck so i jumped off and helped push it out

The had to go back down to get the KLX back up this so called path!@!

Made it to the top finally then after 180kms found what we were looking for!!

Another pic of the XR pulling away form me as usual.

Gnarly rocky trail, It always is steeper that the picture makes it look. thanks for the pics. Did you get a chance to ride the Honda? That was one of the bikes I was leaning toward almost 3 years ago.

Ya rode the honda what a beast.there is a reason those things go to Dakar only problem HEAVY what a time going up that rocky hill but he is a way better driver than i am.My other buddy has a dr650 man on the slab power to burn but on trails i'll take my KLX any day.People on here talk about the KLX not good for wheelies but lets face it if you know how to wheelie any bike will do it.Honda is a great bike i think they need to come to the new age maybe with a 450 dual-sport.Thank god i just put on a kenda trackmasterII that hill would have been impossible with the stock tire!!

I hope there was gas station nearby. Must have been, since you reported no further drama
