It was my buddies son. His dad worked at Oakley at the time and his son would relay everything he told him there. Somehow I got the blame.

His dad made him go on there and apologize and I think he continued posting there

Ronronmx was a great place. I posted under the name "d dogg" and I wish I could find my old sig! Hadn't posted on a forum ever since then, and then recently made an account here (still don't really post much)

So many good days. The van buskirk guy who had the sweetest YZ125 and then randomly found mormon and decided to go to another country as a missionary. Also the sad passing of MXEthix Sad

Haha the sig designs BS








Would that possibly be the same vanbuskirk thus racing AMA arenacross now?

I wonder if Odeezie and Tubesteak Cowboy (still the best username I've ever seen) grace this site?

I used to get into it with Odeezie on political issues all the time before I had a clue what I was talking about.

No way did that come across on the Forum. You or anyone else that posted there.

Almost as bad as the supercross dot com crowd.

Ha! I was a supercross dot com goer for a couple years up to about 2006 until I got sucked in to a forum on a gaming site. Went back to check it out and, apparently, it's no-more. Which lead me here...

Sorry guys Laughing

Yeah it's been down a while. I tweeted Ronron as soon as it crashed and not long after he put that message up on the site about possibly creating a new forum, but (and I never thought I'd ever say this with the rivalry that Ronron and this place had) I'm settled into my new home here so I personally haven't requested a new forum, ha.

Never forget the legendary Sheep Shack.

Loved that place. I basically spent my entire online youth there. Although it hadn't been the same or the last few years after the site got raided and whas then shut down for a few months, I still miss it to this day.

I met some great people there, as well as some characters Grinning . Thanks to ronronmx I met Falcon in real life a few years back when I did a SoCal trip and had a great time.

Yeah I remember ronronmx it was a lot of fun when I first joined in 04. People would post outrageous things sometimes but it could also be completely unpredictable because of that. I'm not sure why it started dying off really. Of course some people on any site will always go too far and have to be banned, but once you start pushing away people in large numbers you just end up with a small clique of people who already know each others opinions on everything anyway. I think that's what gradually happened. Same with that UK site mxtrax in the UK, which seems to stifle any debate or subject matter not deemed uncontroversial.

It had some really good members and idiots. I started posting online there in 2001 or 2002?

I found some of my (obligatory) signatures too.

Matty deaths deeply impacted me. Met him on there around 99/00 and we became really good friends after. I remember talking to him the night before the accident. My memorial piece dedicated to him is probably my favorite and for sure most meaningful tattoo I've got.

Can't believe I totally forgot about that place. Used to post and lurk there a lot back in the day. Can't believe I forgot all about it. Don't have a clue as to what my screen name was.

Funny story about RonRon. I'm pretty sure it was at the Phoenix SX around 1998. I was sitting in the rider area during practice. About 5 -7 rows in front of me was Ronconda and his smoking hot girlfriend. She had on white jeans that were very low. She was sitting bent over and about 30-40% of her thong/butt were out. I couldn't help but look. He caught me looking a few times and gave me an extended stare down. Like it was my fault, how could I not look!

HAHA! (re: the second part of your post obviously) I was thinking of those autocorrects earlier this week. English not being my mother language, I thought at first people actually wrote that as a way of being politically correct.

Anyone know if RhynoTV is still available somewhere?

I think I was 15 or 16 when I started posting there, wish I could find some of the dope signatures those guys made for me.

BQ was a freak there, his corner pictures from his YZ250 were the SHIT! Great track, Great rider, and one helluva photographer.

I believe it's been like that since at least last year. I went to check in there and saw that page.

Was a fun hangout with a very relaxed moderating standard! Used to love all the videos posted on there! Have nearly all of them saved on a external HDD.

I remember one from Alderdale (I think?) where he was battling a 125SX on his 250f? If it's the same guy I am thinking of he wore number 295 and for some reason I thought it was the user on here mx_295 or mx295. Drew maybe? I will have a good look tonight if I remember!
Haha yup thats it. I think it was tommy week on the 125. They had some good ones. Let me know, it'd be awesome to take a trip down memory lane.

RonRonMX.com was my intro to moto forums and it was great. I learnt one thing from there though...don't take the Internet too seriously. LOL.

Was over recently for a couple of SX and at A2 said g'day to BQ at his rig and commented about how I remember him from RonRonMX.com forums and he points and says "well, there's the man who started it all". Trip highlight for me right there, what a legend.

I loved that place. I actually spent more time in the non-MX forum.
Bigglesworth...man, I use to battle that dude on the regular due to his hatred of Reed. What a cock he was.

Good times. LOL.

Its funny to see some of the posters on here with different names from ronron. Would never have guessed them to be the same people from ronron.

Ok, I am definitely going to have to re-upload the videos tonight to youtube. I will make an account specifically for the old ronronmx videos! There's over 30!

I still have the one where Ricky (ricko) is riding around on his ronron bike and cases the heck out of a jump. Funny ending as well!

It's great looking back, I discovered a HEAP of music from those user created videos!

Ha I'm shocked anyone still remembers me or any of my videos. Someone bootlegged one of my videos and it had over 1.5+ million views on YouTube and I tried to get it transferred into my name and they just deleted the video instead. Sure do miss that site.

Post a reply to: To all my RonRon friends.
