This is on the banks of the Withlacoochee River which is the state line between Georgia and Florida. Pretty quiet here now, but I know there are bear and coyote in here. I take an almost frozen water bottle that I wrap in a wet towel in the tail bag. It's still cold after several hours riding. The bike has a 13/45 sprocket combo. Second gear really has some grunt.

Just another shot of the fawn to show reference to it's size. I'm going to put on a set of Kenda Trailmaster II's pretty shortly. They should be in next week.

I had parked and walked back a good ways to take this picture. As I walked back to the bike I saw something running into the woods just before the curve. It was a Coyote. Lots of them have made their way into Georgia and Florida.

I know that everything has to eat, but this is sad. The fawn was probably only a couple of weeks old. The powerful jaws of the Coyote that I saw run from here did this in short order.

Something caught my eye as I passed. I thought it was a tan work glove. I turned around and took a look. It wasn't a glove.

In the southern part of Georgia we have about as much sand at they do in Florida which is only about a mile south of here. I have a Gutts Racing seat with supposidly softer foam. My butt still hurts on long rides. The Clarke 2.7 gal. tank lets me go long enough.

The tail end of the KLX. I mounted the streamlined blinkers in tight protected by the handle on the rack. The Moose Tailbag is mounted to the rack with 'Adel' clamps. The HMF has a Quiet Core in it. Still right loud. I carry the Fuji S9000 in the bag also along with the little Kel-Tec for a little self-assurance.

I plan on getting a pair of the folding mirrors so I don't have these catching branches in the woods.

This Garmin 2610 is the way to go IMHO. No moving parts to go bad. It's on a RAM mount which is mounted to the 1½" Tusk risers I installed. It's wired into the power on the bike. I trust this unit to bring me back out of the woods. Some of the trails down here are not on maps. I also always let my wife know about where I'll be.

Inside of the Moose guards showing the wiring for the blinkers. I ran the two wires through some black plastic tubing and used pull ties to hold them. You can also see that I have dropped the forks about ¾" to compensate for the 1½" dog bones in the back so I could get my leg over the bike.

The Moose guards and covers keep the hands pretty safe, and gave me a place to mount the smaller front turn signals. The GPS, so far, has not been damaged in the more than a few times I have gotten off.

KLX250 with Info Thought this was a nice backlit shot of the bike. I did the text in Photoshop. I've added severals mods since then, Clarke tank, 13/45 sprocket combo and just have removed all the smog stuff under the tank.
