Oddly enough sky diving is still on my list of things to do, however Barbara says absolutely not.

A parachute jump is something I'd like to have done, without actually having to do it, if you know what I mean.

The voyage of discovery that truly matters is not in seeking new lands but in seeing with new eyes.

My ride review: If I wanted trails this difficult to ride on, I could have stayed in Georgia. Two thumbs down. youtube According to someone there when I asked if there were any easier trails, he said no. He had been coming there for years and said the trails have been eroding. And if this wasn't bad enough, I ended up dropping the XT for the first time in 14 years.  It's in the next video. youtube  Now I have to clean all this Alabama crap off my bike!

That looks like most every OHV park I've seen. I didn't watch the whole first video but it didn't appear super steep, though that can be hard to discern on video. The ATV and SXS crowd seems to like big puddles and there will be plenty given how wet its been lately. At least it wasn't a deep puddle.

That looks like most every OHV park I've seen. Yeah, I know. That's my point. Wasn't steep, but I could only do 1st gear, sometimes 2nd gear riding. It's easy to find places in Arizona where you can easily ride in 3rd or 4th. The type of off road riding I would rather do. Just can't find it around here.

Land Between the Lakes has miles and miles of relatively easy gravel roads. There's some in the Chattahoochee and Cohutta Forests as well.
