The Oregon BDR Experience: Episode 7 (Hart Mtn to Home)

[@gonzostrangelove6107]

Those drone shots over the mountain were great! You were going all _Blue Planet_ on us!

[@RubiKonAdventures]

Thanks for the compliment. Glad you enjoyed it. ~Grizz

[@stevenpoppi]

I'm doing the ORBDR south to north this summer and your series was very informative and well done. Thank you!

[@RubiKonAdventures]

Glad to help . Hope you have as much as we did. Do yourself a favor and make sure you stop in for a night at Newberry Volcanic monument. Be safe out there and be careful for riders coming north. Not everyone follows the ride right rule. Good Luck ~GrizzLee

[@brianbrowning6615]

Thanks again for taking us along. I like how the tone as your voice changed as you knew the adventure was soon to be over.. As Always, one more day please LOL

[@RubiKonAdventures]

Always sad to go home… Adrenaline spent, wallet empty and bike needs maintenance. Fun adventure. Thanks for riding along ~Grizz

[@fly-n-low5154]

Very nice, enjoyed the series. Spring riding is almost here, the Alders are budding!!

[@wingrider6116]

[@adventurod]

Well done! Thanks for bringing us along.

[@RubiKonAdventures]

Thanks. BTW: BC Does have the best riding ❤ ~GrizzLee

[@adventurod]

Were you at the CABDR - North premier in Ferndale? I was there too.

[@RubiKonAdventures]

@@adventurodyes I was. I was the one that asked about the BC BDRs

[@seisamigos397]

Beautiful scenes Grizz and nice selection of music. Brought back some really good memories of that country.

[@RubiKonAdventures]

Awesome. Thx for the kind words. Glad to oblige. ~Grizz

[@jrdepew]

Another one in the books. Spring is coming!

[@RubiKonAdventures]

Yes indeed. My shoulder is nearly recovered from surgery. Time to ride some more. Cheers buddy. ~Grizz

[@adventuremulemoto]

Fantastic series Griz...still trying to get used to your beardless face! Not sure a man can be called Griz with no beard! 🙂 I did parts of the route last year myself, then got hurt,🤕 yada yada yada. I'll be back. I think much like the CABDR-South, Sections 1 and 2 are just not my cup of tea, but the boxes have been checked. Moved up my retirement to this June 🤩. I can't take it anymore (same company you were at.) Our paths will cross someday. Love your work. Carry on good sir.

[@RubiKonAdventures]

Congrats on your upcoming retirement. Yes, my fuzzy face comes and goes. One day I wake up and look in the mirror and off it comes. Then 3 weeks later it’s back 😂. At least the missus lines the beard. Send me a msg on Advrider (GrizzLee) . Maybe connect for a ride. Cheers. ~GrizzLee

[@podthewelder]

LOTS of epic riding around John Day!!!

[@RubiKonAdventures]

For sure. Return engagement a must. Maybe a more thorough tour on my way to do the Oregon BDR-x route. Cheers ~GrizzLee

[@idratherberiding3456]

Great work guys, too bad you didn't do the section 1, it's beautiful and not too hard, but it is desolate. But I understand, it comes a time that the go-home-itis takes over. LOL Once again, great work, and I enjoyed following your adventure through the ORBDR.

[@RubiKonAdventures]

Numerous riders we met coming from the south stated that if they could do it over again, they’d skip section 1 as it was all desert rock and sand with no real interesting features. With that stated, Dr K wasn’t enjoying the desert. I loved it. It was a new riding experience for me and we didn’t have hot weather. In the end, It was a compromise between us. I personally would have preferred to have finished section 1. When I revisit the area, I will do so. I want go back and ride the Oregon BDR-x route there. Thanks for riding along. ~GrizzLee

[@idratherberiding3456]

@@RubiKonAdventures I understand. I come from another perspective, I love riding on the desert. I've done the beginning of Session 1, especially the Domingo Pass area, about five times, all before someone included it into the ORBDR. LOL Still, great to see you guys riding the ORBDR.

[@SteelHorseman]

Nice ride brother.

[@foxglove8836]

Enjoyed every one 🙂, But where was your teddy bear 😞 🙂. Don't think i would like to ride the sand roads, They look really bad. Take care hope to see you again on a trip.

[@RubiKonAdventures]

My teddy bear…😊. Awe yes, I am missing an important farkle on this bike. Thanks for pointing that out. I will have to address that ASAP. Cheers ~Grizz

[@HDH-kh4ps]

I've enjoyed watching your ORBDR series! What was the reason you guys skipped most of section 1? I've seen quite a few reports of guys complaining about the length and rocky section 1, but I really liked section 1 when we rode it mid July. We camped near Beaty's Bute.
