Does anyone else ride down a dirt road

[1313R]

I live down a dirt road, and it gets pretty sandy at times. My front wheel is starting to squeak a little. Bearings I wonder? Any tips or tricks for maintenance for keeping the sand from hurting anything?

Keep all things well greased and rinse off dust frequently.

Pave your road!

I have to ride bout 400 feet or dirt to get from the road to my shop/garage where i keep my bikes, I just ride really slow on the dirt so it doesnt kick up and wash often.

YES IT IS A BUSA.... IN BIKER BOYZ.. AND FOR THE DIRT ROAD QUESTION .. I USED TO DO THE SAME ...JUST RIDE SLOW AND WASH IT A LOT. GREASE IT ALL OVER.

yeah I used to live 3/4th of a mile on a gravel road...would take me 15-20min to get down that stretch...idling in first the whole way there.

Yeah it's about half a mile. Not to bad until it gets sandy, Then it's idle or die. Takes about 7 mins. The front tire doesn't want to turn and the back only wants to spin. It can really suck. However I'm no Smoke.

I live in Apache Junction, Arizona. There are dirt roads all over here. Went up to Chevelon Canyon & spent over 20 miles on dirt. I just pretent I'm on the CR500, Twist & go!

I live about 200 yds off the main paved road on dirt, plus have a 200 ft gravel driveway - just have to go slow - of course NO riding on any rainy day.

[havoc]
