Welcome to the 4th annual D&B Adventure ride!! A Free event with a no limit sign up thanks to our sponsors💥🙏Every year is a different theme and set of routes…sometimes different states. Last year we enjoyed ourselves in southern Ohio getting some of the best hospitality a rider could ask for. We are back in Indiana for 2025 teaming up with ADV cornerstone George Fehrenbacher and laying out 2 FULL days of the best gravel, scenic views,mud, and unmaintained backroads Southern Indiana has to offer. Expect 150+mile days on all public challenging roads with creek crossings. The GPX tracks will be posted a week before the event with waypoints for fuel, food, poi, park shelter, ect….
In the past we have had over 120 riders attend and its expected to be an even larger crowd this year! Paynetown Campground is a picture perfect spot to base camp with shade and all amenities to offer. Get your site asap they fill up quick.
This wouldn’t be possible if it wasn’t for our sponsors that step up to the plate every year. Riders First Motorcycle Training have been holding down a strong moto community doing BIG things in Indiana….also provide us with some awesome ride shirts and decals at every event!!! Check them out for all levels of training and endorsements at any age.
Proud to have MotoXtremesMX on board with us this year and really throwing down for our Raffle providing some great gifts and moto goodies😎 Mike Ivers is a dedicated rider and a driven businessman keeping the community alive in our tri states. Finding my moto needs here is a fantastic experience every time and they offer plenty of in store shopping. They are located in West Harrison IN🫡
Southern Eyes Trail is a super good resource for riders to enjoy. Countless hours have been put into this route and very pleased to work with George Fehrenbacher on creating 2025D&B. Hats off to him for all his hard work for the ADV world. If you see him out there give his bike a pat on the fender for his efforts!!
We will have some other sponsors helping as we get closer, amazing how the community comes together for adv riders!
