. Back in the (Off-road) Saddle. I was quite surpr . Back in the (Off-road) Saddle. I was quite surprised to realize that my last off-road ride adventure was way back in May 2019. That was a ride on the ‘rough side of Tray Mountain in North Georgia. That was with @im__your__huckleberry_ and @squidbasher - two great people to ride with. One of the SuperTenere riders pointed me to a new Group of Adventure - Big Bikes - Riders. The group called ARofG - Adventure Riders of Georgia. An event had been organized to ride around the Cohutta Forest areas across the GA and TN borders. The ride would need good fresh off-road tires. Got the bike set up in the 10 days I had prior to ride day. This would be my first time riding off-road with a posse of 31 riders. 🏍🏝🏕 It turned out to be fun. Some initial heart in the mouth moments - combination of fresh brand new tires running at road use air pressure and the little time it took to find my off-road riding legs and rhythm - though I still took It slow and easy. Better to go easy to be able to ride another day. A 227mile (door to door) round trip with the last 30mins in an absolute downpour. A great day out! 🏍🏝🏕 Locations we stopped at were ‘The Leaky Pipe’, ‘The Alien Launching Pad and the Powerhouse on the Hiawasse River. More on these on another post. 🏍🏔🌲 #supertenere #yamaha #XT1200Z #XT1200E #worldcrosser #S10 #SuperTen #AdventureRidersofGeorgia #motorcycle #bikersofinstagram #TenereRiders #northGeorgia #Suches #mountains #twisties #CohuttaForest #Ocoee #HiawasseeRiver #TennesseeForest #LeakyPipe #AlienLaunchingPad #ridedunlop #cohuttawilderness #PoshGoondas #GoPro #GoProIn #GoProLiveIt.

. New shoes for the #SuperTenere. 🏍 The tires J . New shoes for the #SuperTenere. 🏍 The tires Journey so far: 0mi - 600 miles: Bridgestone BattleAxe Street tires. Stock tires with bike. 🏍 600mi to 9000miles: Motoz Tractionator - 50/50 Off-road/street tires. I could have got a few miles more but erring on side of caution and Covid swapped back to the Bridgestone BattleAxes with a hiatus on off-road riding. This change was catalyzed by an off-road training weekend I had enrolled for taking place relatively closer to me, near Tampa, FL. (8400 miles) 🏍 9000mi - 14400miles: Original stock Bridgestone BattleAxe. Again, I could have got a few hundred miles more, but the rear had a plug in it from a puncture and the front was about done also. The tire change also catalyzed by a group off-road ride which I wanted to ride. (5600 miles) 🏍 14400miles: opted for the much acclaimed and positive reviewed @ridedunlop Mission TrailMax Tires. Let’s see how many miles they run. A harder walled, denser compound tires which is said to be smooth(er) when riding on asphalt. To be tested! 🏍🏔🌲 #supertenere #yamaha #XT1200Z #XT1200E #worldcrosser #S10 #Adv #Tires #OffRoad #Cohutta #Ocoee #motorcycle #bikersofinstagram #TenereRiders #DunlopTrailMax #DunlopMission #northGeorgia #Suches #mountains #twisties #RubberSideDown #RideDunlop #MakeItYourMission
. New addition to my #ADV motorcycle helmet. A new . New addition to my #ADV motorcycle helmet. A new decal; germinating from an interesting bright spark💡of an idea. My weird and wonderful vision transformed into this decal with a ton of patience and TLC by Jessica at @shraderland_designs, The decal takes up residence under the PoshGoondas decal (also from Shraderland Designs) on the back of the helmet. 🏍 This decal depicts the Journey of my Life (so far!). A journey of many stories and memories. From the African continent, a short hop back to India. Then leap frogging all the way to England and hop skip across to the US. 🏍 Jessica always goes beyond my expectations. My custom orders can get challenging in the details and requirements which she, extremely patiently - understands - and then creates that perfect finished product! 🏍 #supertenere #customdesign #mystory #northgeorgia #advbike #yamaha #advrider #motorcycle #adventuremotorcycle #advlife #advmoto #northga #decals #custom #makeityourown #fancybits #Etsy #farkles #ShraderlandDesigns #etsysellersofinstagram #JourneyOfMyLife #KlimKriosKarbon #KlimHelmet #SuperTenere
. Office for the morning. My Cage (aka car) devel . Office for the morning. My Cage (aka car) developed a flat on Saturday night. Of all the times! Sunday and Memorial Day holiday didn’t help. Fortunately, it is a RunFlat tire. Good to drive at 0psi for a short distance. Brought the car into my local @discount_tire for a replace under their road hazard warranty. And, of course, my choice of tire is always on ‘to order’. Set everything up for today. Drive back home and back here again at 0psi. Drive any further or longer distance and potentially I’m putting the rim at risk. A one hour minimum wait time. So the office came out with me. #DiscountTire #pirelliscorpionverde #runflattires #cars #wheels #fourwheels #RoadWarrior #RemoteWork #WorkAnywhere

Another #SuperTenere TShirt ordered from the enterprising ‘businessman’ of Decatur, GA - @huckmade_dot_com . I was hoping to do a curbside pick up and meet him but this month has been super crazy and I just couldn’t make it. As always, customer service champ, mails the order out to me! Much appreciated, Sir! Have T/shirt, must ride! Let’s go! PS: Love the sticker! #supportlocalbusiness #Huckmade #HuckmadeDotCom #Yamaha #Adventure #PoshGoondas #TimeToRide #Motorcycle #BikerLife #Bike #TwoWheels

After many days of craving for their Empanadas (hearing all good things about them from Colin at @popscoffeeco), I finally made it to @belendelacruz_empanadas! Time for a quick chill Double espresso and the customary InstaPics with a few Empanadas to take home. Having devoured them at home, I agree with all the good things I heard from Colin. This Empanada Coffee shop will surely become a regular. 🏍☕️ #MotoCoffee #PopsCoffee #JonesBridge #BelenDeLaCruz #Atlanta #Cubano #coffeeshopvibes #PoshGoondas #Motorcycle #TimeToRide #RideToCoffee #LeaveNoTrace #CafeRacer #AlpharettaGA #CafeHopper #CoffeeBreak #coffeePic #Empanadas #argentina🇦🇷
