Nikki sure did put on a clinic for us! As you can see from the pics, had some great riders out there struttin' their stuff. :thumb:
I was particularly interested in that "Flying XR650" guy...what a trip. He was parked next to me so I talked to him a bit. That jet airplane he's riding weighs almost 350lbs! :scream:
He definitely did some reading of the old "How to Make Friends and Influence People" book though...I think within 30 seconds in our first conversation when I asked him if he raced, he replied "I'll beat your ass!" :moon: I thought at first that maybe he was just cocky. Although, beating my posterior would be no major feat...even by a 6 year old on a "fitty." Notice closely, in all those nice pics Nikki posted, you don't see any with a fat guy on a KTM (me) airborne over those jumps, and I can say quite equivocally that you never will. You see, I've found that my control of the bike increases by a factor of 10 whilst both wheels are on the ground. (Read: I really suck) That being said, the dude was FAST, and he knew how to handle that beast.
So "Flying XR650" guy, have a cold one on me! You Da' Man!! :worship:
And Nikki, next time you're out here, do you think I could have some girl riding lessons? Please? ;)
