[QUOTE="MadEarthWorm, post: 689039, member: 41458"] Well, for those of you that were following my "Semi-Frustrated" thread I am happy to inform you that I am no longer frustrated because today was one of the best days of my life. Thanks to [B]High Lord Gomer[/B] I got to ride a dirtbike for the first time and the only problem I have is getting the silly grin off my face! IT WAS AWESOME!! :aj: And yes I did embarass the heck out myself when I released the clutch, grabbed a handful of throttle (in a less-than-smooth fashion)and tried to pull a backflip from a standstill--beat that Pastrana! :( Good thing though because I was able to ride the rest of the time with no worries about folks watchin me--I did the worst thing right off the bat, I could only get better! After the freestyle fiasco I got better with the clutch; threw in some throttle control and I was riding around an oval like a "pro"; first left turns then right. Once I hit the beginner track I never looked back. I managed to get it into 3rd (that YZ 250 can move) which is no big deal but boy am I happy. Although I came close to a mudbath a few times the only time I fell was during my FMX performance--guess I didn't ride hard enough huh?. You all were right (Tony, Big Lou et al.), Gomer really is a stand-up guy and a great ambassador to the sport (his dad is cool too). He was patient with me and gave me all the seat time I could have wanted. He wouldn't even let me give him some $$ for fuel. Thanks again Gomer--I really appreciate it and I owe you man!! I hope to get my bike in the next month or so depending on when snow is supposed to be here. Hope to meet the rest of you at DW04! :) [/QUOTE]
