I Took My Honda SCL500 To An Island FULL Of Gravel Roads!

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Spontaneous adventures often make for some of the best adventures, and this is proof of that! On a whim I decided to take my Honda SCL500 to Wye Island on the eastern shore of Maryland and it was SO much more fun than I could’ve imagined!
As it turns out, nearly the entire island was unpaved gravel roads! It was so sick finally getting to “scramble” on my scrambler. Annddd of course I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t get myself into a sketchy situation or two…
Where should we go on the CL500 next?! I’m looking forward to more scramblin’ on the scrambler! 😎🤘🏻

    When Boy Scouts are promoted to the life long title Eagle Scout, they do a project that gives back to their local community. Often people clean places or build or repair structures that can be used all.

    It's too bad Eagle Scout doesn't carry the weight it used to a long time ago. I wasn't a scout, but I think it used to be an outstanding organization. The decline of Boy Scouts is reflective of the increasingly rapid decline of our American society over the last 40 years or so.

    The golf course, I believe, is called Hunters Oak. Back in the day it was a really nice course. It fell into financial issues and other problems. It's changed hands multiple times and currently, from what I last heard, someone is trying to bring it back to its former glory. 1 of the 3 courses is was open last time I was there, but that was a while ago.

    The eagle sign is referring to boy scouts who have to do a big project to be granted the almighty Eagle Scout promotion. Not a Boy Scout but I had a few buddies in high school who had to do Eagle Scout projects. Lol

    Comparing the SCL500 to the Rebel 1100 really is an apples to oranges comparison. The only thing they have in common is the Honda name. Aside from that they’re totally different bikes built for totally different purposes, so it’s nearly impossible to compare them. And as far as a recommendation, before deciding, you really just have to ask yourself which riding style you prefer, how much power you need/are comfortable with, how much tech you want, what your budget is, etc. There’s not really a one-size-fits-all answer there, especially when the bikes are so different. Hope that helps!
