We drove out to Sabine pass and took two suzuki v-stroms and a bmw f650gs to ride the abandoned highway 87. Next time, don't put your road too close to the ocean.

  • Is that highway still there after IKE came through? Ive always wanted to run it; heard there were some abandoned gas stations up that way.

  • @coorsbeer93 This vid was before Ike. I've been there since (and on a easier to ride bike.. the DRZ!) and things were pretty much the same. I did see that gas station that was abandoned.

  • If you think a BMW shaft drive is maintenance-free you haven't been paying attention. They're pieces of crap.

  • Great video. I tried riding on a beach in Denmark once but it was too difficult for me.

  • glad to hear a brazilian song there. Hugs from brazil!

  • I took a trip East from High Island on 87 May 2008. The blade had been through that day so I was able to do 5 miles. There was a homeless guy living in his van at the end of the road. He told me that he was from Plato Mo. and he was a Veteran. I am not sure what happned to him when Ike hit.

    I know about that electric fence. If it is the one 2 miles East of High Island it was destroyed by Ike.

    I met the farmer last year who owns that ranch. He is in his early 80's; he still uses a dozer.

  • essa musiquinha ai e mor viagem bro!

  • Hello Dave!
