Message: [QUOTE="gsimpson2g, post: 1168812, member: 76195"] Hello, my name is Geoff Simpson. I have recently gotten the urge to start riding on dirt after riding street for awhile now. I love the idea of sliding the backend around all of the time, or being able to pull wheelies without fear of loosing control of a heavy bike, or getting a ticket. I also would like the freedom of just being able to go out into some hills and just ride with no worries of traffic. I also plan on taking an Off-Road riding class in my area before I buy a dirt bike. [b]1) your physical size (both height and weight are important):[/b] 21 years old, 6 foot tall, 155Lbs [b]2) How physical / aggressive are you?[/b] I consider myself to be fairly aggressive [b]3) what do you plan to ride- MX/SX tracks, woods, fields with friends or ?????[/b] I plan on doing a good bit of woods and field riding, with some possible track riding in the future.
