I’m 32, got a Vw T6 Transporter and feel violated reading this thread.

But that’s ok. Laughing

It's starting to rain, I'm loading up (or getting back in my truck because if there was a chance of rain I probably didn't even unload) my $12,000 450 and heading for the couch.

I blame the kids. Hopefully it changes as they get older

I don’t ride between Jan and Feb in the UK. If it’s below 10degrees C or it’s a mudder I’m not riding. Fuck it

Yup! Before the sun comes up...I'll be on the road (from Redding @ around 3 am) and on my way to Mitch's shop & Murietta to drop off some "last minute" special lightweight uber-trick & mega-zoot parts just in time for A1.

I'm getting to the point where this "time of year" cuts into my "Winter Wonderland Riding Time" so much that 'my A1' will be fitting some parts on some bikes on Friday...yes...Friday & then I'll go riding during the day on Saturday (on my 125!) and watch the race Saturday evening...at the beach with cocktail in hand. My priorities are changing...I guess.

I'm pretty sure my 1st SX this year will be Oakland. Then maybe we Off-Road to PHX...?
You’re missing out Manny. I was up there Saturday and it was so good! Ran into Mr Langham as well

I wont ride if track is muddy or chance for rain.
If there are any puddles at track i ride around them.
I dont follow rider in same line just not to get roosted.

Yep I call it the 40% rule. If there’s more than a 40% chance of rain I’m out. I get so few days to ride that to justify the cost and the time it has to be nice day, quality over quantity for me.

Do I qualify for vet status?
Truck worth more than bikes with old man bed step, and heated and cooled massage seats for the back ache drive home

Trailer with beds, sink, AC, heat, and bathroom

Grill in the pits

A kit, titanium, carbon, every part available

Old/wreck Helmets on the wall

Garden cart instead of carrying everything in and out of the trailer

I wont jump that one because I have to go to work Monday

I dont race because those kids ride too carelessly
