Re: Took it to the track finally

Cool!

I still haven't had mine on a track really. Just trail riding. (I guess for the same reason I like touring on the streetbike, and not track riding. )

Looks like fun!

The Seminoles are building a track with a trail system off of Alligator Alley that is supposed to be nice Link. Has me thinking about getting dirt again.

Re: Took it to the track finally

I raced a lot of BMX as a kid and since my parents never bought me a motocross bike, I never graduated up. Now "I" can afford it but I'm a lot smarter now. If I'd have had a motor back then, I'd most likely be in a wheelchair today. Glad I waited but it's still something I've always wanted to do. No, I'm not going to race this thing. It scares me too much.

Re: Took it to the track finally

Looks fun...I never got to race MX as a kid because my parents wouldn't sign the release form.

Now, after 2 ACL surgeries on the same knee, I like to keep my wheels too close to the ground to go out on a real track.

Believe me, I'm going to be a hurtin' pup for a few days. It's worth it though. I buy my Ibuprofen at Sam's in the big bottles.

Hey Conq,
Did you know that there is a pretty nice track in Clayton? It's called MX Park East or Archer's Lodge. They have been doing a great job keeping the track groomed for the last year. You should check it out. I ride there during the fall/winter. I don't have alot of time to MX during the spring and summer. Let me know if you would like to go, and we'll hit the track one weekend.

Re: Took it to the track finally

Yeah, I've heard of it (http://www.motoxparkeast.com/main/) but I haven't been there yet.

I also want to check out http://www.forestgames.com/. They have a huge trail system I hear.

Re: Took it to the track finally

Looks more like a beach than a MX track if you ask me?

Um, yeah, this is Florida...
There really isn't any dirt in this state. We are surrounded by beach everywhere.

It's a shell mix. It was pretty dry that day even though they were watering it when I got there. It's a lot harder packed than most of the trails around here.

Re: Took it to the track finally

This was a funny still from some of the videos. My bud on a YZ 250 getting absolutely dusted by a little squirt.
