That said they (quads) are dangerous to the riders of said quads and to MXers that they share the track with.They also really do screw up the tracks badly.
So with way more dirt bikes than quad riders the track owners really have to pick a side.
Also, everytime I knew someone that hopped on a borrowed quad they usually ended up in the hospital that day.
It's like there is some strange inferiority complex and bike riders must scramble to their keyboards and type that quad riders are gay as they nervously laugh. I don't get it. No one comes up to me at the track calls me gay. Like someone stated, they just say I'm crazy for racing a quad. But here in the Internet world everyone is safe and sound at their computers. Lol. Idiots.

My parents who have ZERO motorcycle/ quad experience and are in their 60s decided they wanted to buy quads a few years back. I begged them to buy very lightweight simple quads and of course wear helmets. Well after I begged them to buy low seat height trail bikes instead. They bought a pair of V2 4x4 800# quads and added every accessory to them adding another 150#. They also didn't want to buy helmets cause they viewed their large quads as sort of like cars that didn't need them. I BEGGED and got my stepmom to buy a helmet on the grounds that the dust from Dad's quad in front of her wouldn't get in her eyes, my Dad refused.
My stepmom rolled hers about 20 minutes into her first ride and pulverized her knee and hit her head square on a rock. I mean nothing left of this knee except a shattered skin bag of bones. She is now fine and that was the first and last time those farming quads were ever ridden by them.
I know talking MX quads isn't the same thing but the general public views quads as 'safe' because they kind of look like cars where-as a motorcycle might fall over. But quads are some seriously dangerous shit imo and a trail bike is just way safer.

Does every fun and exciting motosport have well known heroes? You fail again.
And I'm sure your local track is prepping it just for YOU as we speak, so you can rip it up with blistering speed never before seen. All the kiddies on the CRF50's will be lining the fence to give you a high five as you exit the track. Third time's a charm.
Street bikes are the most dangerous of all, IMO.
But yes, it would be fun to spin some laps on an MX track with you.

What they need to do ( and maybe it sounds selfish ) but do what Woodland does.....and that's let the quads have the track at the end of the day to tear it up all they want. And maybe some quad guys don't see or understand this.....but if you are on a bike , then you will.
Anyway, I only own motorcycles these days and only do a little bit of offroad events, so bikes only is fine by me these days.
We're sitting there taking a break from riding, and the guy heads out to the main track, and starts hauling ASS. I can't recall how big the step up double was, that was cut out of the side of a hill, if memory serves, but it was big. Neither of us were doing it, and my homey is a far better jumper than I, so it was big enough. First lap, the kid launches this thing, clears it by a huge margin. The two of us are just speechless, then look at each other, laughing. The track that day was completely dried out, and hammered from a race, and rough as hell. We were riding fairly conservatively, not willing to risk road rash, from a get off on sun baked Georgia red clay. Again, didn't seem to bother this guy, just tearing it up. We were in Wayne and Garth mode that day.
At that time, I had no opinion either way on quads or their owners, since I'd never dealt with them much. This guy had my respect, because he was the real deal. I've since had the opportunity to share the track with quads, and it's never a good time, especially on sand. I don't hate quads, or their riders, but bikes and quads on the same track, at the same time, are just not a good mix. It's a shame people take the interwebs so serious, I didn't even realize we weren't supposed to dislike quads, until I got on Vital. Hey, shouldn't there be a Canadian Quad Pro in here, telling us how cool quads are?
Before you start calling someone a " fag "....maybe try to find out a little more about them. And hey genius........ALL us bike riders pay for prepped tracks when we hit the practice days! It's part of the deal. Gets rougher as the days go on.........just like the fucking races you watch on TV.
Get your ducks in a row before saying something as stupid as what you just said please.
Oh, and here's one more for you quad gods
