What started out as a good day on the dirt , turned into big struggle. I was determined to keep trying and some serious sweating went on lol. The big girl didn't let me down. KTM 690 enduro r

I have had many rides like that! After which, I sit with a beer saying to myself, “WTF was I thinking!” A glorious drubbing.🎉

Excellent job dealing with that pesky tree mate.A very challenging ride.I'm surprised you don't carry a little bit of gear in a tail bag on your adventures.I have one of those folding Japanese saws,very handy.Keep up the great videos,very enjoyable,especially as I'm not getting many rides down here in cold,wet winter in Aus.

Cheers Steve, I do carry a saw and some other bits and bobs in my backpack but I'd already made my mind up early on I wasn't going to attempt to cut the trees as they were really thick , probably 9inch diameter. I'm just so glad she snapped but I never saw that coming. Hope you manage to get out for some rides soon mate . Thanks for watching the channel 👍

Brilliant footage watched from the comfort of my living room. I’m doing some of the TET in October on a 690 and this gives me inspiration not least to get a bit fitter. Look forward to the next one.

Thanks Ian, welsh tet or further afield? Definitely helps if you can manhandle the bike around if need be without collapsing afterwards 😂. Thanks for watching 👍

@@myktmadventures Sorry, meant TAT (leaving from outside Boston) not TET but pondering a 690/701 and getting on the lanes in the UK. My 890 is just too heavy. Your neck of the woods (quite literally) looks fabulous. Just hope the eco nutters don’t spoil that too….. Cheers, Ian

@ianross225 690 701 are great bikes , I do like the 890 myself but not ridden one , obviously a bit heavier but I've heard the suspension etc on the 890's is great. I had a 1090r before the 690 and I loved that bike. Hope your trip goes well

I always carry a couple of tie down straps, two joined together would have helped pull the bike up or at least secure it while you grab a breather. having said that I would have forgotton I had them and prob gone down ther other side as a passenger and hoped for the best lol

Yep straps are a good shout , I normally carry one but didn't have it on me on this ride , tbh I wasn't expecting to have to go back up that hill , but carrying on down the lane was the worst of the 2 choices . Just glad to get out ... eventually 😀

🤣 I've cut many a branch with my pocket saw and chain link saw but this wasn't a branch it was a 9" thick tree. It sounded rotten in the video but I promise it didn't feel rotten when I had to man handle it around 😴. Thanks for watching 👍

@@myktmadventures I'm hoping to head over to Bishops Castle on w/e of 2/3 Sept, camp the Fri/Sat and do a loop on the saturday. Was gonna go and do the northern TET loop but probably not enough time for that. A few have said it's decent over that way, route stays down towards Knighton and Moelfre. Hoping it will be fun!

Sorry for the numpty question …which tyres are you preferring. Picking up a new 690, previously ran Motoz Rallz on my 890r - but interested to see what you find best given the varied terrain you ride. Cheers

@myktmadventures 11 ай бұрын
No probs mate, I run a motoz tractionator desert ht as my last tyre and that was a really good all round tyre I'm currently on a motoz enduro i.t and it's a great tyre for grip but I'm not sure that it will last quite as long as the tractionator did. Hope you enjoy the 690 they are real good bikes 👍890 are great too but little bit heavier
