So we are riding an AMA dual sport ride in the Pine barrens, my first AMA club ride, not my first ride, my first time in the Pine Barrens in a long time. We have a guy that is new to dirt bikes as of this summer and his speed is getting there but he is not racer. He is doing well and learning fast. We are having a great ride early on and we just finish a long winding single track section. Lots of fun but not hard for the most part. It was maybe a 3 mile 2nd and 3rd gear section so rather long for unbroken single track. We finish and wiat for our bud, he emerges about 2 mins later and pulls off his helmet. Some Enduro club wearing racer guy storms up off his 2 stroke race preped bike and unloads on our bud talking in no polite tone about how HE did not enjoy the section AT ALL because our bud did not pull over and let him pass. He did NOT explain anything about motor reving or "Hey Ya" yelling as a please let me by signal. Anyway, these guys hammered hard over every section then took a 10 min brake so we were running with them all day since we were riding brisk but not all out so we did not stop at the end of every section. Any way to you hammer head racer guy , Fffffff-----UUUUUUU! Our poor bud felt bad the rest of the day and tossed his bike at least twice that he admitted because he was trying to look over his shoulder in the singel track. Turn in your AMA card and your bike and get a horse so you can sit up hight and mighty and not have to worry about dispensing poop all over the trails and not picking it up, bikers dont act like that! This was a Sunday AMA club ride, there were BMW, KLR's, DR's WR's up to race KTM bikes and this guy is talking about how HE did not enjoy 1 section. Go ride the rest of the pines with your by yourself flat out if you want to train hard, why would you do a club ride where you know over 1000 riders would show up with street legal dual sport bikes? Anyway, the ride was awesome and very well organised and hosted, shame on, one Delaware Enduro Club rider that had to give his club and his sport a bad name. Very un-cool bone head move, could have and should have been done with some class, not @$$.
Thanks DRN for having a flame board, I feel better now.
