Hi Guys, I am without a plate again this year, and thought I might do like I did in 2016, where I ditched gas at a half way point (A route). Will you be sending out GPX tracks early this year? I'd just like to figure out my logistics ahead of time, if possible. thanks!

Howdy all, A buddy gave me some intel on a couple of rides in the Mt Washington area east of Strathcona. One that goes close to battleship lake and the other that goes to the summit of Mt Washington. Any recent info on these road/trails? Is the summit run ok to ride with a dual sport and a...

Howdy guys, again I find myself only with my non-street legal (but registered) bike. Last year I was able to park up top the highway and then start in from there. I ditched food, gas and water at the halfway point and all worked out well.Would I be able to do the same this year?thanks!

Planning a few days in the chilcotins. This year I go in from the north side (hwy 20 or through gang ranch - which will be about the same thing), then head south to the lakes and mountains. I wanna take the van into Taskeo river/lake area, then explore around Chilko lake and see how far I can...

This thread is open to everyone from anywhere, as we would like your input. In the past there have been some great dual sport rides on Southern Vancouver Island (ORCA and No Work Zone are great examples). However these are no longer for a variety of reasons. One of the biggest reasons is that...

Hey guys, thanks very much for the A route. We really "enjoyed" the new stuff you added. Also, it was nice for me to take my (one and only) offroad bike. I ditched gas and water at the halfway point, and this worked out very well. After 3 years we have yet to make it all the way around any...

I have been watching a thread on KTMTalk for a little while about "what rifle to get for self defense. Something in the 100-200 yard range" (he already has some pistols and a shotgun). Its about 10 pages of recommendations from various KTM bike riders of what self defense rifle to purchase...

Hey guys, a buddy and I are coming over to the LML to ride tamahi and mcnutt in a couple of weeks. How's the dust there? Its pretty dry here and they are starting to talk about closing some areas. thanks

I no longer have my plated bike :-( Are offroad only bikes OK for the Spring nubie B or A routes? I have the dreaded fork sticker. thanks

If it was me I would call Rekluse. They have awesome tech support. Even if you did not buy it from them new. They dont care.

For those who have offroad only bikes, where are you mounting your plate/sticker? I got a sticker. My ICBC agent said it could be mounted anywhere on the bike as long as it can be easily removed.

I am headed to Penticton/Summerland for a week or so, and going to take the 350 with me. I am hunting for good trails or interesting day rides in the area. For trails, I already know about Bear Creek in Kelowna and Bardolph at Vernon - and the loose screw stuff. Anything in the...

I have a 5-6 days between the loose screw and going to Edmonton, and I would like to make a side trip to Bella Coola. Any interesting side days trips to cool places? I would love to get a nice view of Waddington - back when I climbed that was on my hit list, but I am too lazy now... (a)...

Back in the 70s, there was a road that went straight from Shawingan to Port Renfew. About halfway in between, there was a bridge that crosses the canyon at Williams creek, called the bedsprings bridge. Unfortunately it was torn down a long time ago, and no longer is there a way from Shawnigan...
