O.T., dirt bikes

a lot of talk about dirtbikes on some of the threads, how many of you guys are into dirt? here's my newest addition as well as my yz 250f. I'm on one of these pretty much every sunday.

It's hard to beat KTM"s, I have had eleven of them since 01

My 08 300 xc-w is plated and has a euro dualsport kit installed

I had two Husaberg's also a 06 Enduro FE650E and I still have a Euro model Husaberg FS650E 2006 that is also plated


Gee-Bee

But nothing like my Scary fast Desmo !

my 1st ktm was a 76 penton. I had a bud who had a 99 husaburg, god was that thing impossible to start after a stall, they've come a long way since then. this is my latest project, I've had this bike for 12 years, looked new when i got it and I'm trying to put it back close to that now.

We ride in the swamps of Florida. Not for the faint of heart.

I ride more off-road dirt than street and have more KTM orange in my veins than Ducati red.

Dirt venues include Hare Scrambles, Enduros, weekend trail rides and long-distance dualsport/adventure-lite rides. Most recently, I re-traced the historic Pony Express Trail from Carson City, NV arriving Salt Lake City just in time for the WSB races at Miller Motorsports. 500 dirt miles, including impasseable mud, torrential rains, hail, snow and lightning storms.

Stonyford is my most frequent venue.

Here is a shot of me in 77 on my RM250, with all that hair spray I don't need a helmet


A couple years later on my KTM, remember when thay were white.


I also raced Maico's for a few years, and last week I found myself at the start of the GNCC race on my YZ250 (old man class)

I got rid of my 98 KTM 300exc last year but I have a Kawasaki Prairie 700 (well, 730 now) set up for harescrambles. The woman wont let me race after a major injury a few years back. But I like to pretend.
