New Mexico BDR Full Ride Guide for first time ADV Riders

New Mexico BDR for Beginners

Are you planning to ride the New Mexico Backcountry Discovery Route (NMBDR)? In this video, I take you through my very first BDR as a beginner adventure motorcycle rider—sharing what went right, what went wrong, and what I wish I knew before I started.

From deep sand near Rio Puerco to the alpine passes of Cloudcroft, the NMBDR is full of epic terrain and hidden challenges. Whether you're riding a Honda CRF300L, Yamaha Ténéré 700, KTM 890 Adventure R, Husqvarna Norden 901, or a BMW GS, this video is packed with tips to help you prepare, pack smart, and ride safe.
