Planning on riding that at CATRAland. Bring it up next Thursday. Knobbie and I will make sure you "break" it in properly. ;)

Thats for the mx track only, for now anyway. I still have the KX, maybe we'll see you Thursday.

This just in!!.....what in hell made you stop drinking beer? Is it the same thing that made you stop riding at catra? :|
All kidding aside, congrats on the new bike and when we gonna ride again?
So many questions, so little time.
Oh yeah, about the 250, maybe if I had aspirations of becoming a moto bone-head but I like the woods

Lol, you make me laugh. The boss has been away so I've been the fill in for the week. What a ****ty week too. I have been trying to get out, havent been on the bike in 3 weeks I think, work has been insane. Then I got a leak in the roof and yadda yadda yadda, 3 weeks are gone. You riding on the 4th? Looks like the only free time I'll have for awhile.

 

[KDXruss]

Not sure yet when we are riding. Either 3rd or 4th, will post.

 

[OTHG_DAVE_858]

Gotta work Monday, I never would have imagined how many people take it off. Well ,we will ride together again. Have a good safe weekend.

 

[WoodsRider]

You guys need to get out riding more!

 

[KDXruss]

Hey all!

I can't believe all the talk of trails so close to me, well actually I guess I can believe it considered how rural NY is. Anyway, I was thinking of purchasing my first dirt bike (just recently got my first 2 wheeled vehicle of any kind) after riding a junked 80cc that I resurrected at a friends house for a little while.

I was curious about stuff more local to practice on, trails sound fun, I don't think I'm into jumps or MX stuff. Are there any road tracks around (I realize it's a dirtbike forum, but thought I'd ask). What size bike would everyone suggest for a 200lb guy? Somewhere 200-250cc good to start out with?

I guess the next step is to get geared up.

 

[OTHG_DAVE_858]

itjstagame, I have a bike in the garage for you an 02 KX250, I am in latham also. Email me at [email protected]. I have just been through the whole bike and it is good to go. I bought a 450 and the 250 is just sitting pretty ready for some lucky person to pick it up. I haven't put it in the want ad yet, I was hoping someone I knew would want it because its a great bike. Let me know, Dave.

Catra riding this evening with Woodsrider.

 

[OTHG_DAVE_858]

Working late this evening with the boss..@#$% it never ends, have fun.

 

[OTHG_DAVE_858]

Well, whats everyone up 2 no posts in awhile.

 

[WoodsRider]

It's be nice to have a few more people show up to WORK during a work-party day. Took a few members on a good trail ride after the last one.

 

[OTHG_DAVE_858]

I will be at another 1 before the year is over, work is busy and some personal stuff going on has left all riding on the back burner. It is just good to look at the forums and see what everyone is up to. I will get at least 1 ride in with you this year. Later, Dave

 

[OTHG_DAVE_858]

But it will be on a 450, the 250 is gone.

 

[KDXruss]

Plenty of ridin' season left Dave, let me know when your back up and running.

 

[OTHG_DAVE_858]

If I can figure out how to make this thing slow down, I might be riding soon.

 

[OTHG_DAVE_858]

Well, everyone must be riding and not posting. Ride on CATRA memebers.
