The KAT -Part Deux AND Hatfield McCoy Buffalo Mountain 7/18 to 7/26/2020

I think I can swing at least part of this trip. How would the 1090 fare on the DS portion?

Review my video. I believe it's all a DS portion ;)

Great Vid Janis! If I still have your DRZ in July, you gotta come back and join us. Hell, I will keep it just for that if you want.

I remember some bike offers if I happen to be around. So it's not a factor here
But the expenses of trip to US are too high so unless I get a business trip I'm unfortunately not coming anytime soon.

Definitely skip the Hard Options.

As long as you have knobbies it should be doable.

I've still got the 450. It looks like you guys used bikes closer to it's capabilities than the 1090.




I'm in agreement with Boom Boom that we need to post up and do more DS rides. Phil, wanna try the southern portion of the MABDR again?

You will probably have more fun on the 450.


Taking 9 days for this trip, Im not sure if I can swing another multi-day trip.

Camping or staying at Kathy's place in Matewan?

Sat, Sun, Mon and again on Sat we will be staying at the Inn and eating at Wingos. Last time they let us park there for the week so it's the least we can do.

Once we are out on the KAT, it will be random hotels every night. No bike camping for this kid, travelling light is paramount.

Cool, I like Wingo's, get Don to get me some shine! I have one of their daughter's photos hanging in my hallway! I could do that whole trip on the 300.

Man, this is a terrible year to have a kid. Enjoy guys.

As an experienced parent I can tell you that Mother in-laws love grand-babies and that might be a good week for her to visit

I'll have just gotten back from a month long ride to Alaska.....








HELL YES I'M IN!!!!!

You'll wanna leave the 1090 at home. You could do the whole thing on the 450, it'd be a bit big for the single track but you'll appreciate it on the KAT!
