So did you have to retire from fire fighting? I'm guessing a bad back really hampers that work. Really sorry to hear that back has buggered your plans for exploring but on the other hand it's nice to have you back old friend.
That Explorer is a beauty. Arrow pipe, too...nice and spendy but so light and sweet. That bike is perfectly farkled for the purpose, you should have an easy sale once the tire kickers leave you alone.
