This past weekend I spent four days in New Mexico hosting a private DA8 Experience ride with four awesome guys, including one of my close friends, Steve Fox.
We packed a lot into three days of riding. Day one was all dirt bikes with some really fun wet sand sections that kept everyone on their toes. The next two days we switched over to adventure and dual sport bikes and explored some incredible places you’d never see from the highway.
What makes these trips special isn’t just the riding though. It’s the whole experience — staying in an amazing place, eating great food, hanging out after the rides, and swapping stories with good people.
One thing I’m really excited about is continuing to expand these DA8 Experience rides beyond Arizona and into more states. Every location brings a completely different adventure, terrain, and experience.
The older I get, the more I appreciate that this is what I get to call work. Grateful for the people, the rides, and the memories we create through these DA8 Experiences. #da8experience #da8guidedrides #da8adventures @foxtoyotaofelpaso
This year has been incredible. When I added DA8 guided rides and rental bikes to the program, I had no idea how much it would take off.
I’m loving it, because not everyone wants to just do drills all the time. As we get older, it’s about enjoying the ride, hitting awesome trails, and surrounding yourself with good people.
These rides have been keeping me busy, and it’s been great having people fly in, grab a bike, and go ride.
I also offer two Airbnb options here on the property. A guest house and a smaller hotel type of room above the shop, so you can make it a full riding experience.

Last week I had a solid group of guys out from the East Coast and I had an absolute blast riding and hanging out with them. They signed up for one of my DA8 Guided Rides, and one of them rented one of my 300 KTM’s.
I’ve been staying busy with camps, experience rides, and classes, but it’s been awesome seeing these guided rides starting to take off too. Stoked on the momentum and even more fired up for what’s coming next.

What a fun session with @schaefer747team_dirtsnakes yesterday from her house. Exploring new trails and working on getting her a little more out of her comfort zone. It always a good time seeing the rider progress so much in a short period of time. Great job Heather and thanks for the footage. #da8training #da8experience
Last weekend @cooperabbott120 and I teamed up with @babesinthedirt to host a 3-day women’s camp here at my place. We had an incredible group of riders join us and it couldn’t have been a better weekend.
We provided all the food and lodging, then spent three amazing days on the motorcycles working on skills, training, and riding some really fun areas.
Between the riding, the amazing meals, and relaxing evenings hanging out together, it made for a weekend full of great memories.
Huge thanks to this awesome group of ladies who made it so special. 👍🏼✊🏼 Thaks for the awesome products from @strictlywildco@rynopower #da8training #da8experience
Not a bad view to start the work week. Monday I took out a cool group of guys, visiting from New York, for one of my @da8training guided rides (I also gave them riding tips). They also rented one of my bikes. #da8guidedrides #da8experience #arizona

What an amazing weekend with two great friends from Utah. Jim Keller @sunnyoffroad and @ryanthurgoodrjt . They needed a break from the snow and came down to enjoy some Arizona sunshine and prime riding conditions.
I did a two-day guided DA8 Experience ride, and they also stayed in my apartments attached to my garage/shop. Three solid days of laughs, breakfast, dinners, and great conversations — I think it’s safe to say all three of us needed it.
Already looking forward to heading up their way this summer. 🤘

You don’t need to ride harder. You need the right framework.
