Where in the World? Dirt Riding Heaven USA MOTORCYCLE EXPLORERS ALBERTO LARA NAOMI TWEDDLE BACKCOUNTRY RIDING IN COLORADO I had always been drawn to the State of Colorado for riding so when Backcountry Discovery Routes Team put together a route it was a no brainer that we were going to do it. I eagerly bought my Butler map, downloaded the tracks onto my GPS and pointed the bike towards Colorado. Coming from Canada we rode the route from North to South instead of the designed direction of South to North. We were riding Yamaha WR250R bikes so we trucked the bikes down to Craig, CO where a generous ADVer let us park our truck on his property, and started the ride from there.
