Did some sand and beach riding over the weekend. Learned a new way to dig a hole with my moto.

Panama. I was only 2 meters from safety when I burrowed in. My buddy rode back to a surf shack and recruited two teenagers on MX bikes to help. We used driftwood to get it to harder pack with the kid half my weight riding it back to safety. Afterwards we gave the kids turns driving our bikes and they had a blast.

That’s awesome.

Ya I wonder if even roping it to the T7 would help if they pulled you while you gently try to pull out.

You probably already know but for the new riders if that's salt water get it off with extreme prejudice asap. Power washing the grease out of the spots that should have grease can also be tricky when doing this.
Yup washed before we left the beach and again when I got home. Chain needs a bit more work, it might be boned. I've got a sand riding class next week so I won't change anything till after that.
That sounds like fun!
Update. Rear bearings are dead. Glad I got to do a beach ride once but I think that was a one time deal.
