XT250 - my “go to” 100 mile loop
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
My go to easy loop featuring Forest Service roads: www.relive.cc/view/vPOpWGx84Ev
This ride features three forest service roads, 058, 132 & 27, and never disappoints. The XT250 shines in its native habitat. I wear lighter gear for this road blast with no single track.
Today the forecast was ominous, but the ride turned out to be a joy ride. All good, all day.

Military Bayonet folding knife small flashlight ( extra batteries) matches/cigarette lighter smartphone small book/pen chapstick sunblock I think I named everything that I carry. In addition I would not "air down my tires" I keep them full up and just ride with some caution and I ride offroad as well. Great vid nice looking Horse you have there keep riding and enjoying life!!!
Rok straps are the best! Have them on my rack for my xt250.

love em!
XT250 All Day - thanks for continuing to provide great XT250 content. After making my first several videos about the XT250, I’m learning how hard it must have been for you to put these all together. I’d love to hear your comments on my videos. What do you recommend for a mic system to record audio while you’re riding? kzread.info/dash/bejne/aqCe1c6TaZy0pqw.html

I'm going to check them out. Man, I never record while I'm riding so I'm no help there. I have a hard time even taking pictures when I'm riding becuase I just want to ride and not fiddle with my phone an all that jazz. The most I do is stop, record, take some pics and go! All my videos are recorded on an old iphone 6s!
What air pressure do you run on the street?
Also what tank saddle bags do you have there?

Open ride areas like 5 Mile Pass and The Knolls are close to you and are a lot of fun.

@@notthisjenn nice thing about open ride areas is they can be as easy going or as hard as you want. 👍🏼
How tall are you and what is your inseam? Wondering how the bike is for someone 6 foot.

6’ tall, 32” inseam. Your legs will be bent … I always have the balls of my feet on the pegs. & have gotten very used to that riding posture. I did put on high bend handlebars so standing is more comfortable.
where in Utah?
