Default Northern CA - Lost Coast

Hwy 1, Annapolis Rd, Fish Rock Rd, Hwy 128, Usal Rd, Briceland Thorn Rd, Avenue of the Giants (Hwys 254, 271), Mattole Rd, Hwy 211, Wilder Ridge Road, King Peak Rd...I'll get a map together later.


4 Days and about 800 miles (100 of it in the dirt). Route was detoured because of the fires in Northern CA.

Supermoto specific tires - Conti Force SM. A little sketchy in the dirt but sticky on the street.

Default I found it challenging and entertaining at the same time

A GS is a much larger bike. I'd definately want knobbies on that in the dirt.

At about 320lbs wet the DRZ is a bit more forgiving.
