if you're still around the jersey pine barrens i'd be more than happy to meet up and give you some pointers. a big one, however, would be to start with a lighter bike to learn offroad techniques. _pete (flemington) -----Original Message----- From: Ingo Lahnemann [mailto:lahnemann@...] Sent: Monday, April 09, 2001 8:26 PM To: KLR 650 List (E-mail) Subject: [DSN_klr650] I Can't Ride Off Pavement My KLR world has come crashing down on me... First that low life "Fireball" kills Jennifer (I still have her JC Penny catalog picture on the garage wall!)... then I realize that I can't ride off road. I tried last summer in the New Jersey Pine Barrens... almost went down a few times in soft sand...hated it... then today I tried to ride this gas pipeline near home... very muddy, I panicked, too much front brake and you know the rest... flipping through the air, landing in ankle deep in mud and water with "Katie" on her side! At least nothing was broken... picked her up (I'm a man, not a girly man)and walked her to dry ground. I know you're supposed to stay on the throttle... but the little voice in my head says that if I do, I'll only crash harder. I guess its pavement and gravel roads for me from here on out? Unless I can learn to ride this beast... and ideas?
