    I doubt most here fully appreciate trail riding and the joy it brings, but I do. ...…o~`o

    I don't post here mostly because these folks walk more then ride. Was stoked to see this post, thanks.

    As a practicing moto maniac I see the beauty and know the hazards too. Friends and I often see 10-20 miles on trail before lunch, sometimes sweat but never blisters. Throw in a couple of burms and a few wheelies and it’s hard to eat that lunch with a big ol smile

    As always, Will

    What is this dual-sport moto camping thing you speak of? I've never heard of it but it sounds fascinating! I can only imagine all the different places I might get out to see that I can't always reach by backpacking or kayak camping or... Oh, wait, yeah, I think I know what you mean!

    Looked like you had a lot of fun. Breaking the crusty ice trail on a bike isn't always as much fun as it might seem but once you get that camp set up I'm sure you slept like a log afterward. Alas, the host service you used was very clunky / skipped a bit, kept wanting to go to another video and freezing. Have you considered hosting on Vimeo? (also free, HD, and usually streams smoothly)

    Veoh was the only site that would take a 20min video with 1.65g ...everyone else has restrictions on size and mins or they pull the vid if you add the 'wrong' music...
    I did load it to Dailymotion with music but it got pulled but did load a non- music version of same

    Yep, on some of them you have to tag the music a certain way to protect the musician's copyright. It can be a pain but it's not always an issue.

    Very nice, when I was younger my family would take small trips like this. Great memories.
