So after a 2007 with no more than a few miles of riding, in 2008 I got back on the settle.

The F650GS Dakar patiently waited for me. I got back into practice mode, riding the bike around my “neighborhood”.

Old Stagecoach Road

Old Stagecoach Rd again.

Along Hwy 36

Off of Nelson Mountain Rd.

It was good to be back on the settle…

..and getting reacquainted once again with riding.

One day, after this ride, I stopped by the BMW dealer and they invited me to join them on their annual Discovery Rally. It was going to take place in the Ochoco National Forest in Eastern Oregon. Check story coming up that next!
