Motivation...and a thumbs up for this guy...
Driving back from a weekend of fly fishing at Lees Ferry this afternoon and I stop at the Express Mart in Gap, AZ.
Start with the obligatory feeding of the resident rez dog my lunch leftovers, empty my bladder, buy some Funions (mandatory road trip munchies) for the last 30 miles to Tuba City, and go outside and find this parked in front of my truck.
Start talking with the owner and turns out he has been out for 5+ months everywhere west of SD with nothing more than a backpack. No GPS...stock tank...didn't even start the trip with the side bags. Super nice guy, won't put his name or where he is from out on this forum but someone might recognize him. I told him about the website and that I would throw up his picture. Hopefully he will post some pics of his trip. I think the bike was a KTM 525 EXC but I am not a bike pro. Going to go and dust off the CRF450x after I am done posting. Looks like I need to start researching a more trip friendly bike...:coffeedrink:
