Yup transitioning from street to the mighty DR. I used to get a bit anxious in the glacier till here in Ontario, till I bought myself some great tires...and practice. Im 64 and cant afford to fall down much anymore lol I do envy guys on Beta's' that regularly speed by.

Just like when people think they want a true race car for the street, and what they really would want is a sport-tourer: in the motorcycle world, people think they want an "adventure bike" but what they'd really have more fun with is a dirt bike. Street bike riders don't understand how little traction you have off-road, even with a fat, knobby, barely-DOT-legal set of tires. You have like 1/10th the traction in most situations, in addition to all the uneven surfaces and deep sand and deep mud, etc, and what you really need is a dirt bike. My cut-off for ADV/enduro fun, is the bike needs to be dirt-bikey enough for the front fender and gauge cluster and fairing to turn with the front wheel. If the whole front of the bike just stays frozen in place no matter what you're doing with the handlebars, it doesn't belong in the dirt. Also an enduro needs to be no heavier than 350 pounds. 275 is even better.

Is there a calendar for this event? I'd like to see if I can make time for it before I apply.

Having made big strides in the past few years on a dirtbike, it was crazy to hop back on my big 500lb adv bike and discover how many things that didnt used to seem possible a few years ago become just another ride when i take the long way home. Gaining some abilities and confidence will do way more for you than any physical improvement you make to a bike (short of tossing the 95% street tire in favor of a 95% dirt)

I think once you've tried a small nimble dirt bike, you'll end up saying, screw the big bike, these small bikes are so much more fun. Let the big bikes stay on the street. That's what happened to me. I bought a KTM 300 XCW and now I barely ride my R1200GSA.

Any plan on an intermediate adv clinic? The multi day stuff is hard for me but I’d be stoked to bring the T7 back up to carry on where we left off last year.
