Tough Trail & A Serious Think About My Safety | S2 EP32

ADVcharlie 14:25 March 2025

EDITORIAL SUMMARY

A North American riding episode from ADVcharlie’s round-the-world journey, pairing a challenging trail with a thoughtful look at personal safety. The ride also brings striking autumn colour into view, before the afternoon’s attempt at the Moab BDR tests the rider’s appetite for sand.

About this film

Season 2, episode 32 follows ADVcharlie on a modified KTM 790 Adventure S. The film sits within an ongoing motorcycle journey rather than a standalone bike feature, with the riding itself and the decisions it prompts at the centre of the story. Its title signals a serious consideration of safety alongside the trail challenge, while the description adds a clear note of personal preference: sand is not terrain the rider particularly enjoys. Together, those elements give the episode a grounded focus on the experience of being out on the bike, not just the route.

The journey

The ride takes in the Moab BDR, which ADVcharlie attempts in the afternoon. The route brings sand into the day’s riding, a surface the rider admits is not a favourite. Autumn trees provide a contrasting visual thread, their vibrant colours making a strong impression along the way. The episode’s framing also places the trail in the context of a broader round-the-world trip on a KTM 790 Adventure, part of a series following rides across North America. The film’s story therefore balances the immediate challenge of the trail with the larger journey and a considered attitude to riding safely.

What to expect

  • A Moab BDR attempt during an afternoon ride.
  • Autumn trees and vivid seasonal colour.
  • A trail challenge alongside reflection on rider safety and sand.
