Well, I haven't checked into any official DB rental places yet cause I
don't know of any. Not saying there aren't any, but I don't think so.

But for a small fee we might work something out though.... :-)

BTW: What level do you want to ride at???

Hi Gary,

Thanks for the response.......what's a small fee? Looking for 2 bikes 1 for
me 1 for my wife.....We are both probably intermediate level???? We live in
Vancouver B.C. and we do mostly singletrack woods riding with logging roads
thrown in. I've got a 97 DR350 and my wife has a 80 XR200.

When I was in Vegas a couple of years ago, I seem to remember seeing an ad
for a Dual Sport Touring company.....I dont remember the name though.

Nevada Motorcycle Adventures is worth checking out. The equipment is
all DR350s.

I went on one of Matt's tours, and it was great. Matt is a "character."

I was trying to offer a ride, but can't really accommodate 2 people
for near dual sport fun. Most of my connections are for 2 stroke.

And as for options:
According to the phone book, there aren't any. Many options on
Halloween Hayride Harleys, but no more off-road stuff. There were
once 3, but all have since ceased. Still have feelers out though.

Hi Gary,


Thanks for the offer! I realize finding to bikes that someone would let a
couple of strangers ride is probably next to impossible...I guess we will
stick to the the black jack tables! Last time we were there we rented a
triumph 900 and did a day trip out around Hoover and lake Mead, I'm thinking
we will try this again.

Best regards,

Scott


PS Matt is in Reno and I already checked him out before I originally posted,
sounds great but its not Vegas
