i'm here in moab, thanks a zillion to kurt simpson, who loaned me a bike to
ride down here. the riding is absolutely fantastic. i've never seen
anything like it. majestic scenery, killer trails. i'm going to have to
buy a dr350 when i get back, as i can't see myself letting go of kurt's.
awesome bike. great combo of power and weight.
anyways, back to riding. can't wait to meet more of you.

Amen, Scott. Not to run down DZ400 riders, but Cycle World's latest
picked it as the best dual purpose. I think the R1150GS took top
Sport Touring honors ( I was so digusted with the KLR omission that
I didn't buy the rag)

Cheers,
D.
