    Prayers to rider who passed away from wreck at 62 last night.

    THAT is an extremely tactless and unnecessary thing to say about the young man who lost his life at RT62.

    Grear's AHRMA this weekend

    Was planning on Grears AHRMA race today but baled due to rain in the forecast. Now just waiting for reports of track being perfect :)

    VMD 2021

    Due to the MO rain curse that seems to happen on at least one race day...I never pre-enter as I don't want to get locked into riding in the mud. I suck more than usual in the mud! If the weather cooperates might ride my 84 RM250 in the 60+ class.

    Buckeye Series Schedule

    There's still some useful nuggets on vital that make it worth wading thru the crap :) Did win the pro-taper 12 days of Christmas contest this year which included sprockets, chain, EVO handlbars / pad and clamp on grips. I pretty much post there like I do here...kinda infrequently.

    Buckeye Series Schedule

    Maybe RT 62's pics of Wednesday's practice ruts scared the vets off :) Don't agree with Hershey's comment that its not motocross racing unless it's rutted. Corners rutting up a bit are fine but having to get locked into long deeps ruts on straights or jump faces and jump landings are no fun...

    Buckeye Series Schedule

    Some fans of rut-o-cross slot bike riding here in this thread:) . I'm old and personally, I hate riding a rutted up track...probably has a lot to do with me sucking at riding ruts. Especially when jump faces and landings are nothing but deep ruts. Watching national races where the track is...

    Bike Build... again

    Not familiar with your bike from last year that got 6th in the build contest....got a pic you can post? Is the pic here an 06 by any chance? Applied upper triple clamp?

    Bike Build... again

    Sorry, not certain of the exact bend anymore ... only know they're pro-tapers and usually go for a flatter bend with less sweep.

    Bike Build... again

    Have gone with a few different kinda looks on my old 2006 YZ250 which is still my daily rider. Also tried out an aluminum tank made by a company in England that allowed the more modern looking 4 stroke radiator shrouds to work but that had more of an angular look that I wasn't wild about...

    Favorite MX Boots?

    Everyone has favs for a particular brand so no one boot will fit all :). I have narrow feet that get along well with Sidi Crossfires and I've had no issues with them staying together the last 5 years! Recently scored a pair of new Sidi Atojos for a mere $375 from a shop in Germany, ordered...

    Boots for $39? This can’t be real

    Just checking to see if the A10s have shown up yet or heard anything on shipping. I thought it was a deal when I got some new Sidi Atojos from a site called Chromeburner for $350. What was really amazing is that they were shipped Fedex and arrived in 3 days from Amsterdam!

    Best MX Track in Ohio

    Grears in Zanesville which just opened this year. Awesome elevation changes that you won't find at any other tracks in the area and track is about 40 foot wide in some spots. Makes good use of the elevation changes for downhill and uphill jumps. They're having gobs of mulch brought in on a...

    SOLD 1974 Maico 400

    Sadly sold...but needed the funds for a new truck. Big props to the yo-yo that claimed he'd be picking it up on memorial day weekend at a discounted price and then wasted my time by not letting me know he was gonna be a no show. Never fails when selling something ...to be expected I guess.

    Back Yard Tracks... Let see em'

    Thanks! With you living fairly close, I'll give you a shout the next time there's some riding going on in the backyard. I know you have some vintage / post vintage bikes...do you have a modern bike too? I can do almost all the jumps on my post vintage 84 RM250, but I wouldn't be doing them...

    Back Yard Tracks... Let see em'

    Friends with an excavating business that I rode with played a big role in getting things built about 15 years ago and have added a few things along the way. Keeping it mowed and the jump faces in shape has been a second hobby :) . Actually has a decent elevation change that helps with a...

    Time for a Shootout...Atlanta SX 2019

    Good racing! But...I'm a bit bitter about the NBC gold app going from having dedicated SX viewing without commercials to an exact clone of NBC sports complete with commercials and missing first part of broadcast due to Bball...no more dedicated SX viewing. Thought that's what I paid for when...
