We met Redick who is from Vancouver at the Klim Rally and watch how he rides his KTM 990 as if it was a tiny dirt bike in some single track in Oregon….oh, and he is built like a redwood himself. Redick is the one leaning on his bike in the above picture. Nice guy!…

We took the BMW R1200GS, Yamaha XT1200Z Super Tenere, Triumph Tiger Explorer 1200 and KTM 990 Adventure on an off-road adventure and to really test their abilities, we enlisted Stan Watt, who finished 34th in this year’s Dakar Rally.
