Desert Run on the Q
Took my Qlink on a ride this morning, thought I would share.
I've broken the 1500 km mark and the bike still runs perfect. Not as fast as my RM250 but still a blast to ride. It gets more looks too. Overview of some of the desert just North of Phoenix. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Riding is serious business, no smiling allowed. ![]() My $10 fender bag from Wal-Mart, found it in the bicycle accessories. ![]() |

You, the Q and the scnery all look great. How are you making out on the sand? That gave Q and I fits, especially with the stock tires.

Yeah sand takes work with the stock tires. I think that's why I have so much fun on it. My RM can get through anything by pinning the throttle and holding on whereas the Q takes finesse.

Looks like you will be in for a replacement rear soon anyway.
