[QUOTE="SMMWest, post: 1348886, member: 100029"] I know that this is an old topic but when I saw this post, it just made me feel good knowing that there are more men out there like myself. I used to be a pretty fast 125cc Intermediate, then I slowed my life down and decided to start a family. Motocross had to be moved to the back burner. Now my Finance' left me and I am a single father raising an 8-Month Old daughter. I was blessed to be able to land a 1985 Honda CR125 and get back into riding. I am way out of shape compared to what I used to be (I used to be a Certified Personal Trainer) and don't have time to ride during the week because I am working for my Magazine and taking care of my daughter. The guys that I ride with all have between 2004 and 2009 Honda CRF450's. I am the only guy out there not on a Honda 450 Four Stroke. 2-Weekends ago I was out at LaGrange (in California) and I was able to do most of the Doubles, but on the 125 I couldn't clear the Triple or the Table Top. I know it is just being older because at that same track years ago I could do every jump on the track. I would pass the 450's in the turns and rip them through the whoops, but on the uphill Double and the Straights it was a lost cause. I WAS BLESSED to get this bike and will get my use out of it, but I just can't help but wonder how good I would be on a Big 4-Stroke. The guys on them look like they aren't using any effort at all. It is funny because all my friends say Les Mixon you are the fastest guy that we have seen on an old beater 125, but I get mad at myself because I know that I should be smoking these guys. Well there is always next time out. :nod: [/QUOTE]
