Up On The Pegs

It's pretty easy if you got the handle bars to make it comfrotable. I ride standing up a lot after I put extensions on. Some of the 50/50s have awesome traction, just terrible asphalt life.

Took the chicken strips right off of the Pirelli MT21s on my husky when I took it through CO. Didn't even realize I was leaned that far over until the end of one of our days of riding. That was even loaded up with a week's worth of gear. I wasn't standing up on the paved roads, though.

You came through Colorado and didn't tell me?

Sorry! Summer 2011. Rode across NE and did some touring of CO. Estes Park, Pikes Peak, Royal Gorge, etc. Tried to go up and over the mountains from Crested Butte to Aspen, but the locals warned us about the road (two of the 4 of us were on street bikes, and one passenger had Down Syndrome) and it was getting dark, so we didn't attempt it.

The best riding I have ever done. You guys are spoiled!
