KX250F: Manchester OHV "THE ALLEGRA TAPES!" 3-28-2025, Red Green Blue Trails

Manchester State Forest OHV trail conditions, March 28, 2025! Back at wild whooped Manchester. This time on the KX250F. I had been taking Allegra antihistamine for several days and had a crazy brain fog reaction to this otherwise mild drug. While rare, these side effects have been reported: Fatigue, Drowsiness, Headache, and Muscle pain or aches.

Sooooo, I was a bit of a complainer on this ride. Forgive me! :-) Hopefully there is enough of interest here for you to find it enjoyable. Best to all, and thank you for watching!

Manchester OHV is located in South Carolina's Manchester State Forest near Santee. All OHV trails are marked with directional arrows. OHV riders must wear a helmet, and bikes must be equipped with a spark arrester; riding motorcycles or ATVs on roads is unlawful.

VIDEO INFORMATION
** Gauges added by using GARMIN VIRB Edit software, a free video editor from Garmin that works with any video, any GPS that can provide FIT files, and any heart rate monitor **

I record these videos to enable me to visualize the ride. Visualization is an excellent tool to train your body when you can't actually perform a physical event. Used as a training tool by Olympic and professional athletes for decades, watching an activity can be a tremendous enhancement to actual practice.

If you can't make it out to the Trail in person, watch these videos to prime your brain for your next ride. Watch it before you go and you just might be amazed by how much faster you ride. Enjoy! :-)
