TH-cam put you in my suggested feed, and now I’m binge watching your channel. I was drawn in by the SM500 content and because I also have a DRZ. The DRZ absolutely needs a larger capacity tank and a better seat so I jumped right on that video next as I was just shopping for those last night. Thanks for the inspiration and entertainment! I wish your buddy the best and hope he heals fast.
Thanks man! Appreciate the comment. Chris was back just this week for a run we did near Liepers Fork TN. I’ll have that one out soon. The DRZ is a favorite..
Love that SM500 on my big bike. Whitt Rd is definitely good water crossing practice…heal up quick Chris. Awesome weekend trip with the boys for sure! Looking forward to 2024 riding season here in Tennessee. Tru Coalmont sometime on a 2smoker!
It’s been a few weeks since our Witt Rd adventure. I’m happy to report that Chris is no longer hobbled in a boot. He’s back riding as a commuter and we plan to hit a return to some dirt next weekend.
Algorithm got me here, have not heard of SM500, watching through your channel playing catch up, looks like fun! Curious, did Chris have ADV or other riding boots w/ the ankle side protection & clasp seal to help secure! Been sold in to those as a get older riding, more $$$, but I’m thankful to say as of now don’t know if they make a difference.
Chris had on a really stout motorcross style boot. He upgraded to a heavier boot than the standard ADV style boot. I don’t know the brand but it’s a fairly robust boot with ankle side protection and clasp seal. Mostly I think it was due to a just a freak hit putting his ankle right between a raised rock and fallen bike. I’d say it would have been a much worse break with a lesser boot.
