Not really too old, but definitely on the slow side. Either way, me and 1 slow lap at Bartow motocross in Florida, and best of all no music.

It's just a matter of perspective...I strapped on my go pro and recorded a lap. Looked like it was on pause I was so slow. You are in warp drive by comparision.

I was off the bike for about 3 years and I'm finding it extremely difficult to not get tired after more than a lap, so if I keep this pace it's a lot more fun for me. I find myself crashing a lot more than I used to though, so I might better take it down another notch.

Nice vid- that track looks like a ball to ride.

By the way, I must disagree with your assertion that there's no music in that video. Aside from an annoying farting sound in the background, my ears were definitely hearing music.

I bet that track gets nice and rough by the end of the day. Everything sounds better in 2-stroke!

Relief!! I thought someone got my GoPro and was exposing me. I won't post mine as it looks like I'm walking the track until I crash and you hear cussing.

Tip...throw the vented back on the camera and you'll get a lot better audio, plus removing the hiss at the end of the straights.

The track is really nice, and rider friendly but they don't change it up much which is why I haven't been in a while, surprisingly it doesn't get too rough, but if it's not watered it gets very sandy. GuyB, thanks for the tip, this was my friends camera(the guy on the Honda in front of me) and he let me just slap it on for a lap for the hell of it.

That was probably my first time on a 2 stroke in about 6 years and I could hear myself chopping the throttle a lot, I've since taken measures to ride less "chop" free, but somehow I haven't gained anymore speed...........
