  • Riding dirt bikes in the mountains of British Columbia was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. Unbelievable scenery and very challenging riding were the name of the game at Grizzbait 2023. I spent 5 days riding a Honda CRF250F in Canada with the gang from Traction eRag, the world's most barely tolerable online motorcycling magazine. Together with about 20 of my closest friends, we rode trails and long abandoned roads to the tops of mountains, through streams, and to some of the most absolutely stunning vistas I've seen in my entire career of riding a motorcycle off road. What an amazing event that I was privileged to have been invited to.
    I had a blast doing so much Honda CRF250F trail riding and Honda CRF250F off road riding. It was truly a bucket list style dirt bike riding experience.

    Welcome to Canada, bud. Not sure where you guys were but we got tons of rocky mountain trails. I ride near Tumbler Ridge, B.C. a lot so this kind of stuff is very familiar to me. Can't wait to see more of this adventure. Them washouts are no joke lol.

    "covered by Canadian healthcare" that's cute. Yes, it's paid for, but anyone actually getting the service is the catch! 😂

  • @doobielawson702
    @doobielawson702 11 месяцев назад

    The reason you were able to make that save is bcuz the 250F has a reasonable seat height. That's the bike I would've chose as well. Great views, I think Oregon can compete with that though. I love riding in our state. I'm not sure how you can stomach that rock riding, definitely not for me.

    Well done if you are new to dirt, it's just endless rocks up there lol. Dallas invited me along about four years ago... loved it. Do you think you'll go again? I'm hoping to make it next year. A pile of mishaps in this vid. ruclips.net/video/JmGgwix6fJY/видео.html
