Fun Times!! It's what these CTs are made for. Thanks for sharing with us! I have a 22' CT, and I'm just reaching 26,000 miles on it. Runs as good as new still. That seems like an Awesome area to ride. Happy Trails!

Great video Mark.

Hello Mark, good to see you out there riding. As usually Great video. I had a pig when I was a teenager, I named him Bacon.

You are very welcome. So glad you were able to make it. You and Steve had quite the adventure.

Was good riding with you again Mark, it's been a while. I put in quite a few miles that day, rode over and back home and I was feeling it for a few days after. I always forget to tell you when I see you thanks for sharing all of your tracks and waypoints with me all these years. I have shared a lot of these places with Heidi and the girls and they still ask me "how did you know about this place", well some I have found on my own but most have come from riding with you guys on and off for the last 20 some odd years..

It is funny you posted this yesterday - I have been thinking about something that involves CT125 Trails

Nice video Mark, keeper coming

Hey mark, great video as usual. I’m setting up my WR and was wondering what seat loose nut is sporting?

Mark, nice to see the varied content.

Nice video Mark, I have been following you and your stories from way back on Adventure Rider days with you and Gaspipe.

That Debbie is a good woman!

Nice ride.

You’re a dualsport legend! You should have a million subscribers.

Here are the coordinates if anyone wants to see it. I may ride up there next spring to see it in bloom. I'm from Flora, IL originally and live down in Nashville, TN these days. 38.43213489829975, -88.84714059155402

I have explored on bicycle many of the old gravel roads near my home on the west side of Missouri near Excelsior Springs and other small towns in the area. As a new dual sport enthusiast (I bought a DR650 for my 60th birthday, having not ridden in 50 years), I have come across so many of these bridges, which I often think of as farm bridges, as it seems they are there really to accommodate farm machinery. Always nice to stop in the middle and look down into the water. I think I will look for any signs of their origin and build and document them. Someone may find that interesting. I mix the gravel rides in with my ham radio hobby, stopping in nice areas to throw up a wire antenna and send some Morse code through the ether. It's old school and kinda retro (even though Morse code is very popular now), much like the old bridges in your videos. Thanks for taking us along.

Running around disturbing the peace.😂

Time to Eat!!!!!!!

Wish I was there - I need to retire!

I see you are keeping Harbor Freight in business. 😁

Great job Mark. You saw and touched the hand of God at work. Thanks so much.

Thanks for the history lesson, Mark. I drove by there yesterday and didn't notice it. From now on, I'll know to look!

Hey, " you added onto the front of your garage! More m/c storage!😮

Almost as good as a DQ blizzard! 😀

That was a great ride and weekend!!!

Nice bike.

Mark This is your old friend Tommy. I love dogwood trees. The woods around here are starting to turn white with dogwood blossoms. I have never seen one that big. I actually,did not know that they ever got that big. When that thing is all bloomed out, it would make me think about crossing the big river to see it. Come see me sometime. Thanks Tom

One of my favorite areas to ride. The Pioneer Cafe is my go to for lunch when I am there. Cooks Corner in Poland is really good too. Good times.

Nice trip.👍🏻

Excellent video, well edited and interesting. I watched it to the end and enjoyed the whole ride. Instead of putting a "bridge out" sign on that first little bridge, they should have put a "weight limit 1,000 pounds" on it. It looked like it was still in pretty good shape.

Good to see your still riding Mark. Be safe and no wheelies on that there big bike..

Lol. Nice drop.😅

Great, common sense review. Surprised you haven't capped off the exhaust recirculation tube? As another former WR250 owner, I'm adding this to my stable.

You should always listen to a woman holding a gun and a dog!

Thanks for the ride along!! I'm getting up there in age and lacking in physical abilities, So I've retired to the Trail 125. But I still get out there, even in the middle of winter. I really enjoyed this video!

Watched all your videos from the beginning the dualsport legend.👍🏻

Great Video thanks so much for sharing.

Great adventure thanks for sharing! I’m looking at the same trip this year. I’m from just east of Evansville and grew up in Mcleansboro. Ride safe.

Ive been riding since my first bike when I was 5. And I happened across your webpage a few yrs ago and I read every single page in just a couple days. Inspired me to get my own adventure bike. Thanks for the inspiration, Mark and helping me to get motivated to check some trips off my bucket list

Great Adventure Mark. Im couple Hrs North of ya in Shelbyville Illinois. Me and my friend rode to ur house a few years ago to meet you. 2017 I think it was. Thanks to you, I have based a tremendous amount of my rides based on what you have already done. I already rode long trips. But you really opened up a much larger world to me and I thank you for that. Im almost 53 and consider myself semi retired at this point in my life. I spend most cold winter night on ADV rider and Google earth Planning trips. I still have ur number, Ill get ahold of ya this spring when it warms up and ride down to catch up and visit for awhile. Thanks for sharing !

I’ve been following you from the beginning love the new ride. Just curious did you sell your other motorcycles?

Beautiful surroundings

Excellent video, thank u

Wish was real they don’t fly those no more

Nice find!

Mark, Great video, and I was thinking the same about my trail rides.. Like you, I ride better than I walk, and at 76, I ask myself in the middle of every trail ride, "Should I really be out here by myself?" The problem is, I don't know anyone who lives near me that rides. It's probably time i do something about that. The weather here is is the opposite of yours. It just turned into prime riding season here, and that will last until mid-May. Many of the State Forest trails here are only open during hunting season, and hunting season has just started, so now is the time to ride here in central Florida.

Hope to see ya! at the Loose nut"

Hey Mark Me and Beckman rode that last fall on our 250s with Roger on his KLR it’s even worse when the leaves off off the trees and it’s wet out. Definitely easier on the Mighty CT!
