I have not been on here much lately.  I need that to change.  Anyways, I have the KLR all packed up and loaded.  Heading out with a friend to spend some time in Death Valley.  I will post pics along the way.  Heading out early on Thursday morning.  I will post pics on FB as well.

Sounds like a great trip, looking forward to the ride report.  Definitely a unique destination that's way up there on my "maybe someday" list.

Are you riding the Lippincott road?  This guy's videos (DV and especially Oregon) pushed me over the edge to pursue the dualsport bug.

I will make a report when I get home. Will determine our path once we get there. Some of the passes are still closed with snow. See you all in 10 days.

Why go there when it is so nice here.  

Have fun and take lots of pics.  

Are you running a spot locator?
