Colorado BDR Day 1 – Section 6, From Wyoming
Colorado BDR Day 1 – Entering from Wyoming (Connector) I’m riding the Colorado Backcountry Discovery Route in reverse and starting where most people finish – at the Wyoming side. This first day runs the WYBDR → COBDR connector from Baggs, WY into COBDR Section 6 at Steamboat Lake, CO, using the backcountry-style link BDR designed so you don’t have to slab it. Great look at what the northern end of the COBDR actually looks like before it drops south.

Useful if you’re coming down from WYBDR and want to roll straight into Colorado without highway. I’m on a Husqvarna 701 set up for multi-day BDRs; see full build below. -- Bike & Filming Setup -- Skydio 2+ Autonomous Drone GoPro Hero 12 Black (Selfie) GoPro Hero 13 Black (Helmet) Tripltek 9 Pro Navigation Tablet Garmin Zumo XT2 Garmin inReach Mini2 Gaia GPS App (Maps, Navigation) 2021 Husqvarna 701 Enduro Rally (Niko) LUGGAGE [MOSKO]: Backcountry 35 Panniers V.2.5 [MOSKO]: Backcountry Duffle 40l V.2.5 [MOSKO]: Gnome Tank Bag [MOSKO]: Wildcate 12l Backpack [GIANT LOOP]: Pocket Panniers (Tank Bag Sides) BODY [AMBRO]: Aluminum Impeller & Water pump case extension [ASV]: Shorty Brake Lever [ASV]: Shorty Clutch Lever [BULLET PROOF DESIGN]: Axle Block Set [CLEAN SPEED]: Billet Brake Pedal [CLEAN SPEED]: Extended Brake Foot Pad [DOUBLETAKE MIRRORS]: RAM Mirror Kit [FASTWAY]: Adventure Foot Pegs [FORKSAVER]: Fork Seal Protector [HAMMERHEAD]: Gear Selector Pedal [HIGHWAY DIRTBIKES]: Ultimate Handguards [HUSQVARNA]: Fuel Cap Vent Billet Blue [KTM]: Heated Grips [MOTOMINDED]: Rear ABS Guard [NOMAD ADV]: AMPS Mount Brace [NOMAD ADV]: Front ABS Sensor Guard [NOMAD ADV]: Rally Kit & Tower [OUTBACK MOTORTEK]: Crash bars [PERUNMOTO]: Heel Guards [PERUNMOTO]: Subframe Reinforcement Kit [PERUNMOTO]: Tail Rack [RADE GARAGE]: Auxiliary Fuel Tank [ROTTWEILER PERFORMANCE]: Shock Linkage Guard [SEAT CONCEPTS]: Comfort XL Seat [TRIPLE CLAMP MOTO]: Clutch Case Cover [TRIPLE CLAMP MOTO]: Ignition Cover [VANASCHE]: Billet Fuel Filler [VANASCHE]: Case Saver [VANASCHE]: Handlebar Raiser [VANASCHE]: Minimalist Luggage Rack [VANASCHE]: Steering Stabilizer Sub Mount [VANASCHE]: Tail Tidy Kit [VANASCHE]: Rear Disc Guard [VANASCHE]: Skid plate [VENHILL]: Custom Clutch Hose ELECTRONICS [BAJA DESIGNS]: Squadron Sport LED Spot High Beam [BAJA DESIGNS]: Squadron Sport LED Wide Cornering Low Beam [BEROTEC]: Cumpan Board Computer [CYCLOPS]: TPMS Monitor [EARTHX]: Lithium Battery [GARMIN]: Zumo XT2 [HUSQVARNA]: ABS Dongle [SICASS]: Flush Turn Signals [SICASS]: LED Flasher Relay [TRIPLTEK]: Tripletek 9 Pro Tablet [TRIPLTEK]: Tripletek Tablet Holder & Charger [VANASCHE]: Side Kick Bypass Dongle PERFORMANCE [ATLAS]: Throttle Lock [DYNOJET]: Power Commander 6 [GOLAN]: Fuel Filter [HUSQVARNA]: LR Large Radiator Fan Kit [KTM]: 520 ZST Z-Ring Chain [MOTOZ]: Desert HT Tires [OBERON]: Clutch Slave Cylinder [PRIMARY DRIVE]: 46 T Rear Sprocket [QUANTUM]: Fuel Pump [RADE GARAGE]: Shorty Air Box [ROTTWEILER PERFORMANCE]: Fuel Dongle [ROTTWEILER PERFORMANCE]: SAS Canister Removal Kit [ROTTWEILER PERFORMANCE]: Stainless O2 sensor plug [SAMCO]: Radiator Hoses [SCOTT’S]: Steering Damper [SUPERSPROX]: 14 T Front Sprocket [THERMO SWITCH]: 190F Thermo fan switch [WINGS]: Slip on Exhaust SUSPENSION [K-TECH]: Fork Springs 0.70 [K-TECH]: ORVS Xplor Fork Piston Kit [K-TECH]: Shock Springs 10.2 [RACE TECH]: Gold Valve Shock Kit [SKF]: Oil / Dust Fork Seals [SKF]: Shock Seal Head [STR]: Fork Speed Bleed Buttons [X-TRIG]: Pre-load adjuster
