Something to watch when it's too cold go out
« on: December 01, 2021, 07:09:15 »
I came across this on Adventure Rider's weekly newsletter. It doesn't have an
English soundtrack but it's mainly visual. Makes my forays off-road seem a bit pathetic. These Indian riders get a lot out of their bikes. The rider doing the filming is on a KTM 390 I believe but there are some riders on road bikes with road tyres. What staggered me was that the rider had no gloves on, maybe it was just wet and not cold. It looks like there are other videos in the series if you to watch more.

Jeez!  Heart-pounding stuff! Inches from death on those mountain tracks.

I thought it couldn't get any worse for them.

Then it fell dark...ffs

I felt tired just watching. How he found the energy for all that talking too...
