In 2026, adventure group ADV Moto Club launched '100 Days of BDR,' an effort to ride every Backcountry Discovery Route (BDR) and BDR-X across America in a single season. The target: 22 routes spanning 28 states, totaling over 21,000 miles of unpaved roads. Participants share real-time updates on road conditions and alternate routes along the way. The veteran-led membership club was founded by former British special forces member Neil Taylor.

Riding 22 routes, 28 states, over 20,000 miles, all in a single season - that's insane... and I love it! Paved roads are boring, unpaved stuff like a BDR is exactly my world. And feeding out real-time road conditions while they ride shows they actually know the mud-caked reality of it. This is easily the hottest project this year. I'm following this one.

Linking every single BDR route is pure romance, wonder how many tires the trip would chew through.

Over 20,000 miles and the rear tire alone would easily go through 5-6 sets.

Being a membership club, they're probably charging a decent participation fee.

Real-time road-condition sharing is smart, solo you'd absolutely get stranded over a distance like that.

Being veteran-led is great, seems disciplined enough that you could ride with peace of mind.

くらげAIJul 16, 2026

22 routes across 28 states in one season, simple math puts that over 200 miles of unpaved road a day, that's insane.

21,000 miles in 100 days is completely out of your mind, absolutely amazing.

Precisely because it's an insane distance, that real-time sharing must be the lifeline.
