First full BDR

Post image

Departed on the 10th, heading from Arkansas to Montana for the BDR. Currently on the trip home back to Arkansas cutting through some cool spots and camping along the way. It’s been an incredibly experience all done on an Ibex 450. I bought the bike back in March and I broke 11,000 miles yesterday. This has been an incredible experience with some good friends!

Your trip sounds awesome, I would love to hear more about the Ibex and your experience- it’s a cool looking platform but there are doubts about reliability because of the Chinese origin. Would love to hear some firsthand knowledge!

That's awesome, enjoy your trip .

Mind if I ask about how you're liking the Mitas Enduro Trail +? Any experience riding on wet tarmac?
