Wow Redbirds, that looks great - how much do I want to ride down those roads!! Where is this?  :D
Is it really an adventure bike if its wheels never see dirt?

Nice shots, Redbirds.  Not many Tiger riders down there in Patterson are there?  ;)  

A lot of the people here in North GA see no reason to head south towards the swamps.  They don't know what they're missing.  I went to college in Valdosta and the area is great for our kind of riding.

What about this:

Geof, that's Patrick, IIRC and he's a hero around these parts.  What the photo doesn't show is the landing.  That must have been like the end of the world.

Yeah, the landing looked a bit scary...

You guys know by now that there are not many places I'm smart enough to stay out of with my Tiger, but I jumped her one time and that was the last time.  Unlike Tigger, these things are not well sprung in the tail!  LOL

My steamer gets dirty.
I try to avoid loose sand and really soupy stuff, but otherwise, I'll give it a go!

The first two photos are of the road to my home in Patterson Georgia and the last is a road in Satilla Wildlife Management Area about five miles from home.
Living vicariously through myself.

I think my steamer is to high geared. What sprockets are you guys using off road in gravel and mud.

Thanks

This thread should be forwarded to every "Moto-journalist" who claims Tigers (and V-Stroms/Tenere/etc. etc.) are to heavy to ride off road.
