    On a Borrowed Bike, Overweight and in the Dark. Delta Raceway MRA Track FUN

    Damn- That iron man video makes me want a remote control helicopter. I'll have to get one for shots like that.

    On a Borrowed Bike, Overweight and in the Dark. Delta Raceway MRA Track FUN

    The GoPro camera made it look MUCH WORSE than it really is. It was fine- when the camera goes all black, we could still see pretty well. The digital camera was picking out the lights as the primary image and making everything else seem so dark. In reality, it's lit every bit as well as Spokes...

    Track owners?

    Holy crap.... Whining crybabies. Ride or don't ride... but STFU about track conditions.... If you are able to ride your bike- hooray. If not... stay home.

    On a Borrowed Bike, Overweight and in the Dark. Delta Raceway MRA Track FUN

    I really had fun. I mean, after the last year crash- I accepted that award choking back the tears, it was surreal. Yes- PDR is back. Will he race regularly? That remains to be seen. I'm looking for a sweet deal on a newer 450 so I can start getting a bit quicker, I just want to...

    On a Borrowed Bike, Overweight and in the Dark. Delta Raceway MRA Track FUN

    Alright, for those that don't know me- I "used to be" pretty fast. Always a "hucker", would jump anything. (did a few Freestlyle FMX shows back in the day) I'm now probably 10yrs past my prime- just coming off an injury of a broken back last year at Apple Cabin. All is good but man, I still...

    I'm probably wrong when they told me WHICH section of the spinal cord controls your breathing. I pretty much chewed pain killers up like PEZ and pounded beers for a couple weeks before anything made sense. Regardless- I'm not sure if in my case, wearing it would have helped. I'm also uncertain...

    Any places to ride in Ohio?

    Well thanks man- the videos will turn to MX this spring, with only limited BMX skatepark stuff. I have some wild ideas for the Go Pro and have a bunch of mounts, plus a few mounts that I've fabricated. The Moto-X stuff's going to be fun to watch. I just wish I had iMovie and a MAC. I could do so...

    Any places to ride in Ohio?

    I think about these guys and the injuries ever minute since I saw those crashes. I knew they were BAD bad. SUPER Glad nobody died or is crippled. Last spring, riding over my head following the fast kids at Apple Cabin- (albeit a super sweet bunch of laps) I broke my back. I hit my head so...

    Used bike prices...holy crap...

    I'm looking for a bike for this upcoming season. If I want a nice 450, I'm planning on at least 4 grand. If I want a nice 250 2 stroke, 2500 I'll bet. Back a few years ago, I used to buy 3 yr old 250f's for 1800 or less and 125's for 1000. Those days are gone, unless you're talking ancient junk...

    This video is proof to me not to get a 4 stroke

    I love Kawi's but that can happen to anything. That was too cool. Staged or not- this is what happens to these engines from time to time, on any brand. Talk about "time to spend the money".

    First jump ever hit? what bike?

    A Kent Trail Climber bicycle. 1978. A milk crate with a short 2x6 leaning on it. I jumped 8 kids laying side by side. Tried for 10 kids. Cleared them and the stem snapped off, jamming the broken part, right in my gut. I was fine "ish" but the rush I got from that made me a different person, that...

    Bill480 Hurt?

    Yeah, Bill480 is a cool kid and I'm thrilled to be able to be discharged and walking. It's a little bit of a wake up call. I'll be talking to Bill periodically, it looks we'll both be fine. Again, THANK GOD.

    Bill480 Hurt?

    I drove him home, he actually was unconcious for a little bit- maybe a minute or so. He was in a hell of alot of pain. Nice kid- we just met, to go run Cabin & that place is fast and fun. Five minutes before he went down, I crashed coming out of the woods and broke my back. Yep, drove him home...

    How 'bout Texas.....

    Boiling fuel is not likely because they insulate the bottoms of the tanks for outdoors. If it did boil, it oxegenates causing air to enter the injector & as a result, limited combustion. If you've ever turned off a pan on the stove of boiling water, it stops boiling instantly. The minute the...
