Why was she going 10mph over those **** roads? I never rode a heavy bike like that but if I were 15 again on my YZ80, Id be flat out over that crud riding back on the pegs the whole way. Sounds like a great adventure...ever see BBC's "Long way around" with Ewan McGregor? London to NY on bikes, they spent a whole day dumping the bikes in some deep sand and went about 3 miles. Lots of flooded areas in eastern Russia. Great series, like 8 parts.
