Wanderings of an EXR

[Redwolf]

Went up the mountain chasing the snow again, got distracted by a little waterfall...

I went looking for winter... I seem to have found it.

I found some on this side of the country too.

Rix, this isn't the one I bought from you. It is the one I bought new in Texas and changed the blue to brown. I have yours set up as a dual sport.

Best of both worlds, one for pure dirt, one for dirt and pavement.

You have that right ! Couldn't be happier with either..........well, maybe a little more range.

Took the EXR out again in the snow. We have been having 6" snowfalls then hard freeze then more snow. The total was pretty darn deep in the woods. The spikes in the rear left nothing to be desired as traction was great. The front was not as good. It never totally slid out but it always felt on the ragged edge, espeially when we got to a section that was all torn up with ruts and mounds of ice and snow. Overall a good workout. It made me remeber why we always rode through the winter............spring!

I forgot to add; Temp was 11* when I loaded up from a warm shop. By the time we started the ride approximately one hour later it was 19*. It went up to about 23* by the end of the ride. I was in map one and ended with 55% charge from a full start. I didn't think the temp caused much issue for the little over two hours of riding. The noise of the spikes on the ice was really loud. I may use ear plugs next time ha,ha.

The weather was really nice here today, so out we went to see how far it was to the snow.

I think I got too distracted with the views to find the snow... may have to try again!

Not sure why, but I can't see these pics. I can see other pics... Is it just me?

 

[snydes]

Not just you.

 

[Redwolf]

Well, not sure what I screwed up there, but I think it's fixed now.
And another pic to make up for that..

 

[snydes]

Beautiful country!

Rix, your bike is in good hands. I wish I was out near Redwolf so we could explore some of that amazing terrain together. I plan on letting your bike see more of the country soon. Here are a couple shots of your old EXR in Colorado.
