Can I Handle More Difficult Rated Trails on My Own: Pushing Myself on the Suzuki DRZ400S

After crashing face first in part one of my dual sport trail riding adventure to Santiam Pass OHV area on my Suzuki DRZ400S dual sport motorcycle, I made my way to a couple outstanding viewpoints and then back to the truck for lunch. After lunch, my motorcycle trail riding adventure continued as I made the perhaps unwise decision to attempt a few Blue-rated, more difficult motorcycle trails that I hadn't previously explored. After surviving the first attempt, I headed up a sandy uphill climb to my second blue trail, only to catch up to a group of guys trail riding on dirt bikes. I stuck behind them for awhile, but then decided to continue my motorcycle trail riding in the other direction, heading back down the more difficult trail. After exploring a few more roads and motorcycle trails, I decided to head back to the truck taking one final "more difficult" ohv trail. This is where the dual sport trail riding fail occurred.
