We also strongly suggest watching the film on the BDR you are seeking to complete. While the map is not detailed enough for turn by turn directions its not only useful for backup navigation, but it’s also loaded with great information about the route. Additionally, the Butler Motorcycle Map for your route will have a wealth of information for planning purposes. You will need the GPX file for the BDR route you are riding uploaded into your preferred GPS unit or phone app. We suggest you begin working yourself up to your BDR expedition, starting with day rides, evolving into multi-day trips, until you gain the confidence and stamina needed for a 5 to 8 day off-road motorcycle expedition. We view adventure riding as a sport, and any sport requires training before the big event. īecause carrying weight can drastically change the handling of your motorcycle, practice riding your motorcycle fully loaded with camping gear, tools, and anything else you need on your expedition.
Here is a link to a list of highly rated off road training programs in the country. We always recommend taking an off road riding course prior to riding a BDR. If you are a novice rider, there are some steps you can take to prepare yourself for your expedition. It is very important that you are honest with yourself about your skill level before you set out on a BDR. BDRs are designed for intermediate to expert level riders.
