Training is of interest to me but my biggest fear is my fitness . I’m 76 years old and in good shape for my age . Just not sure how much I would get out training . Thank you
TONS!!! No doubt about it. Fitness is absolutely a part of the process but even just listening, you will get so much better in the way you think and approach adversity on the trail. Bang for your buck, I don't think there is any better value than training for ADV riders.
Thanks for great videos. I enjoy your channel. You got me very curious about the DCT so I went and tried one. A 22’ non AS model. Absolutely fell in love with it! I currently ride a 20’ Suzuki V Strom 1050 XT and really like it. I’m sure you had the opportunity to try the new generation Africa Twin and was wondering if there really is that much of a performance difference between the two. I’m seriously considering trading mine in for one of them. Is it worth getting the latest model or will your generation due? I’m a very mellow rider. Thank you!
Tough question to answer. Easy answer, there is no version of the AT that is a bad choice. Now maybe if you are willing to spend more you can get some of the extras. I didn’t have a ton to throw at a new bike so the 2017 was perfect for me. Now that I’m a bit better off, I might go for some of the extras. It all depends on what you need and what you want. Ultimately for me, any of these are more than enough bike to keep my level of skill very happy.
