I just rode a long, long, long way off road on my AT and the story is here:

It included some gnarly terrain, drops and some incredible people.

Stuck - Montreal to Virginia

Thats where I am on the blog posts; I have to ride back to Montreal tomorrow so wish me luck for the next 4/5 days!

There is more coming... I got home to Montreal having ridden all the way across Canada.

Interesting. Two weeks ago on my way to Parent, I met a dude from Ottawa who did the TAT, East to West, then the Trans Canada Trail, West to East. He was on his third month riding his 690 KTM coast-to-coast-to-coast. Quite a good young rider. While we were comfortably riding 90km/h on gravel (I had my RD07a), he would pass us at 120, 130km/h... ;-) Hee Haw!!!

Looking to do the TAT on an Africa Twin but can't see the link because I don't have 5 posts.

Jason: When riding the TAT did you ride the blue trail or did you take green when available as an option. Did you ride any Red trails. If you were going to ride the TAT again would you select the AT again or would you go with a smaller bike. I sent you a PM with more info

Thanks

Quickly scanned through the posts, absolutely magnificent.

Something we can all do, but all to often just miss the opportunity

Enjoy

I rode the whole Sam Correro route with some diversions (like stupidly crossing the Craters of the Moon national monument). It's mostly dirt roads with a lot of connecting trails. Some of the stuff in Oregon, despite what Sam tells people who have Jeeps, is very very overgrown and rocky; I had to get past quite a few downed trees.

If I did it again I'd probably ride a CRF250 Adventure.

Great stuff Jason, I'm sure 80% of us wish we could have come with you
