Washington State has a lot to offer to an adventure rider and the WABDR route is a great place to start . Having the luxury of sampling all the major National Forest districts , north to south , really helps to give a sense of what recreation opportunities are available in Washington . For more information about the route visit the Backcountry Discovery Routes webpage . And even though I may not have made it very clear , this route is suitable for beginner adventure riders , Alberto and I just aren ’ t that sensible with what we choose to do on fully loaded big adventure bikes .
