    Good advice for any endeavor one chooses to pursue. “Cheapest and best upgrade in yourself”. As an engineer, love the approach you take. ~Grizz

      As a geophysicist, this type of analysis seems right on the mark and aligned with engineering. You are correct, it works with most everything. For me I have seen benefits on the slopes (skiing and boarding) and track days with my previous bikes.

    Love this. Fully agree with it.

      Thanks you watching and the comment. While the exact numbering or categories will not be right for every rider, the concept should be somewhat robust.
      Plus it has dropped that constant bike envy that was constantly distracting me.

    Doug, a disciplined and determined rider like yourself can score many points for free! By self training, applying the collective leanings from free RUclips videos on appropriate terrain ... saving tons of cash for a few extra points from a set of shiny 2025 wheels 😀

      I still never use the clutch except starting, shifting, and when doing slow speed maneuvers. I never use it on the steep up-hills no matter how many videos I watch. Perhaps, I have to find the right sort of hill and practice, practice, practice.
      There are a couple together hills together at the Waiparous staging area where I could practice as opposed to that Lost Knife Trail where you guys have to pick me up. Ha

      Courtesy of Chat GPT. I think I asked for an image of God presenting the ultimate adventure motorcycle. I had a lot of failed attempts with wording as Chat GPT is pretty literal.

    Great narrative. AI graphics are awful, though.

      The graphics are kind of strange but it is difficult to find images that do not have some sort of copywrite protection.
      It was interesting, as I was trying Chat GPT for the first time (free version) and it would let me do up to three images at a time. Every now and then I would get some very funny ones as my wording led the AI astray.
      I was going to put a selection of the failed attempts at the end.
      Thanks for the comment.
