Won my first race many years ago, the C class championship, the B class championship, the A class championship, did a few Canadian Nationals, (best finish 6-7 for 7thOA) then got a bit sidetracked by wine, women and song (my word for dope) and it was over. Still have some speed but I won't jump shit so......

But I do run top 5 in the A class at the ice races. Dose that count?

I'm super fast and probably do a better air-wheelie than anyone in the history or motocross. I'm tall so I can really arch my back into it. That's the key. Jimmy Stewart is in trouble next year!

Not very good at all, need to get over the fear of re-injuring myself and ill get better. I hit blocks for long periods of time then suddenly out of nowhere ill just happen to learn something and get faster (if that makes any sense). I am too scared to get hurt because I have too many bills to pay

Been riding dirtbikes most of my life, and the only races I' ve been in were a couple of rinkey-dink County Fair events on my quad. I won both of them, but on a real MX track any mildly fast rider will be in a whole different zip code by the time I've made a couple laps around. It's all about fun for me.

I started riding mx at 24, racing at 25. I was immediately addicted. I was top 10 with a bunch of moto, and o.a. wins in the C class ,and was a few points from B before I got hurt .
Now my goal is to get back to racing, and run the +30 class at LL's.

been racing since 92 and I'm 25 now. I've had some wins at bigger races like the Northeast Classic Series, Unadilla AM days, High Point AM days, Broome AM days, Got a bunch of top finishes at NY, PA and NJ state championship races, got a couple top fives at The RM CUP in Oklahoma one year, won some Areanacross races and a few other bigger races. Other than that never really made that next step. Now I race locally and have kind of learned to not take racing so serious, but I still run up front in the +25 class every week and still willing to bang some bars if needed

Bob Kiniry, Paul & Jack Carpenter, Ryan Mills, Mike & Mitch Dougherty, Mike Leavitt,
Casey Clark, Jay Weller, Shane Bartolf, The Veracka brothers outta CT would always be around at the bigger races, Jeremy Cook, Charles Ellis and a bunch more are right around my age so wins were tough to come by as a kid in NY

I've raced all over the country from NY to Cali and have met some great peeps and made a bunch of life long friends!

I'm not bad at trail riding, but I'd never want to ride with a hare scramble or GNCC racer to show me how bad I am. MX... I've done less than 10 laps in my life and rolled everything big. Top that, chumps!

According to my 4 year old I'm Superfast.... but he might be biased!

At the home track I race the A class with the kids, in reality I am a good starter and can run a decent race pace for 4-5 laps... Then the wheels fall off and I am a wheezing 38 year old that preffers to go race practice....

I suck badly considering I have been riding for 10 years. I had an illusion when I was younger that I actually had talent. Some told me so. Now I know it's not true. Sad
...and I'm probably the slowest rider that has about 15 years of riding experience!

I've never heard that. You pretty much get all the respect in the world, and deservingly so. Now, if you drop down to the B/C class next year...


I've thrown a leg over a bike or two. Sometimes I just do it to freak people out.

Doing good. Had a couple of screws put in (ankle) so I didn't have to wear plaster....just a cast boot I can take off at night. Should be riding again before Christmas.

Hope you guys are having a good autumn back there!
