RX3 Forest Service Roads.
Now Before you say anything I know I was in too high of a gear going through the mud holes and I bogged a bit. I expected to roll right through them but instead the front end dug in causing the engine to stall. The sandy soil can be deceiving sometimes.

Thanks for posting the nice video. Did Mrs. Tiger accompany you on the ride?

It was a very nice ride up to Sam Houston National forest except for the rain off and on and it was 10 degrees colder up there than in Houston. Tigress is working up until Thursday, I am on vacation this week for Christmas. We are in the High 70's and will be 75-78 degrees on Christmas Day. But warmer winter means more rain for us. Tigress loves that new seat and is busting my chops for riding without her this week.

yes it was terrible, almost had to put my cold weather gloves on. I could not imagine if I had to stop riding cause of something like snow or ice.

Thanks for the video. Definitely a fun ride. Makes me miss those fire roads back home in Mississippi.
I've been thinking about switching over to a dual-sport, too...this only confirms.... Bill R |

I am slowly mapping all the roads I find here in EastTEX as i'm not familiar with the areas around here but sure is fun discovering new areas to ride.
