Southern Maryland Adventure Riders

Training Camp--EOD3MC thought the purpose of this exercise was to debark the tree. He noticed that everyone hit a different spot, so he always chose a new spot to launch from

This technique is helpful when you are riding ruts. With the front wheel on one side and the read wheel on the far side of the rail, you induce riding the edge of a rut--all while going straight!

Look up! Here's a balancing act to get good at wheel placement. Actually as simple and unassuming as this was, I think this exercise caused the most carnage all day

And I really don't see what the big deal is...Zelda and EOD3MC get through this exercise just fine their way!

PS Sorry about the smudge in the center of the screen...I suspect that might be a dog tongue lick.

The Finale!

EOD3MC on the triple bar!

It's great we rode for 2+ hours, with 2 cameras...posted a whopping 4 mins of vid :huh

We just need to ride more

Waiting for the sign and Delaware LLC status... BLAST OFF ADVENTURES

Where do I sign up? Very cool stuff!

Wait til I get the real property for the training grounds, this is just the proof of concept. This type of training will continue but I need to work on the training curriculum, maybe I will do that when I am off after surgery.

here is a video of the start of the Iron Butt Rally
RFlagg is at about 2m57 seconds
Around 3m58 seconds is a guy going to do the ride on a Ninja 250.
My GT shows up in the background as the bikes make the turn

I am comparing Eric's Spotwalla location to the IBA Spotwalla location and they don't match.....interesting.

He must have got bit by the KLIM bug...another jacket I see

My Klim pants arrived!

Apparently they renumbered everybody SPOT flag, as yesterday some had ??? and today everyone has numbers.

Two things: Happy July!



Secondly, here's the T + 3

I guess this is the point of summer, we resign ourselves that the mercury is bloody hot. Not much scheduled for the next 6 weeks for the calendar. Things to wanderlust about doing...

Sat Jul 6-7 Ride to Shoot - Bedford county, Virginia

Got ideas/events for calendar? Send them in

I noticed the same thing. Yesterday I found 42 (Rflaggs) outside of Flint, MI. Today I have no clue where he's at. Kinda of a shame.

42 is a good number, hope he remembered his towel.

A bit of good news on some trails in MD...although way far from the peninsula (for now )

St. John’s Rock Trail Evaluation Ride

they've changed the numbers since my last post. they really don't want anyone to know who is who.
