As I’ve expanded my exploring beyond state and county highways, I’ve come to discover enjoyment in finding the not-so-beaten path of backroads ... which often turn to dirt.
Yesterday I was riding a dirt road for several miles through the middle of a forest.
Sooo, rather than asking for recommendations for an adventure bike, I’m gonna start by asking if taking the GW “off road” i.e. well groomed dirt and gravel combo with perhaps some small ruts and bumps from drainage, is ok and to what extent can I continue to do this before I’m causing any damage. I think my biggest concern is the tires as some roads have stones mixed in that make that “toing “ sound when they are run over.
What are your thoughts, recommendations, and warnings about taking this hefty highway cruiser off the beaten path?
