hey all i was on a local trailride last weekend, what an awesome day, 500 riders!!! a 40k loop in the morning followed by a 80k in the arvo. my first propper ride since the rebuild.
we had it all, fast sections, deep river crossings, insane hill climbs followed by stupidlly steep long down hills and heaps of technical stuff!
i rode my old KDX250, and ws surrounded by a sea of 450's whit the odd fellow oil burner, i hav got to say i was really impressed with my old girl!
as i dodged fallen 450's on my way up the hill climbs, and swirved arround them laying on there side's(even tho they have engine braking) on the downhills, blew them way on the short speed sections, and watched them being brought back on recovery vehicles, i was proud to be a 2 stroke boy!!!
we had 16 broken bikes that day all late model 250F's and 450's, oh and mine 2K out of camp my woodruff sheared off.
4 broken bones
and one hellicopter ride (not sure why)
STICK WITH 2 STROKE I SAY!!!
