Day 2 of our Oregon BDR motorcycle riding adventure was by far the most eventful. We started the day by jumping right into Oregon BDR section 4. Along the way we discovered some late snow up near Three Creek lake and we had to maneuver our ADV bikes (Ibex 450 and a Ducati Desert X) up and around the snow drifts. After a few more miles of water bars and other obstacles, I discovered that my Ibex 450 pannier racks were severely bent out of shape, so we headed into Sisters to drop by Sisters Moto to see if they could help out.
Sisters Moto was amazing and jumped right into helping with our Oregon BDR bike repair job. Hugely thankful to them for helping me get my CFMOTO Ibex 450 back on the trail so quickly. Check them out here: sistersmoto.com

After repositioning some motorcycle camping gear in my luggage, we set out to tackle the sand and rocks of Oregon BDR section 5. This is one of the most difficult sections of the ORBDR because of the deep sand, whoops, and tons of technical terrain on the route.
Afterward, we settled into an amazing motorcycle camping site right on the North Santiam River. I set up my full motorcycle camping kit from @MotoCampNerd, cooked some dinner, and settled in for a very comfortable night's sleep.
