Experience my first ever Africa Twin CRF 1100L adventure

Here’s my day adventure on the Africa Twin CRF 1100L across the stunning UK Gloucestershire lanes with HP Mav. This was my first time riding an AT and I’ll tell you all about it in this day playing. Be ready for a few bike drops…mainly because Mav thought it would be a fun idea trying to teach me standing pivot turns…it was fun, but it was also hard!

Crisp blue skied winters day, this beast and @hp2mav [insta] showing me how it’s done…what more could I want? Who’s tried an Africa Twin? I was mega excited to see how this thing handles the English greenlanes…mud, ruts and puddles galore! Here’s the fun!

I’ve tried to integrate the technical review into the day’s playing so let me know if you like this style?

You can also see my first time icy riding on the Africa Twin too:

If you’re new to my page – it’s more than just dirt bike riding and racing, I’m on a mission to prove that nothing is impossible if you want it bad enough. See more about my story plus read about my life changing accident, which started it all.
