Nice CR, and a nice Granvia (presumably?) behind it 👌 Friend of mine has one in the same two-tone colour for towing his racecar 😂

When installing my tear-offs I put the first one on in the opposite direction from the others. #oldschoolmxtips

I glued an extra tearoffs pin on the other side for that exact reason. I still forget to use it and grab the whole stack from time to time

I've raced Saddleback, Indian Dunes, Escape Country, Ascot, and that track at the foot of the Terminal Island Bridge in Long Beach--what was the name of that track?

And along with those, I also rode Carlsbad, Lions, El Toro Speedway night mx, Bay Mare, Muntz, 395 Cycle Park, Riverside Raceway, Altamont, Salinas Sand Pit, Marysville (yes, I know they still ride there but this was in the late 60's), Carnegie, I even trail rode a bunch at Baldwin Hills off La Cienega (try that now), and I also raced in Mineral Virginia, Appalachia Lake WV, Big Berm, Md., a very early version of Budds Creek, MD., and Bausum Farm, MD., in District 7, and yes, of course, CZ Rules!  and Maico Breako, but I got nothing for you on a track at the foot of Terminal Island Bridge.  

Oh yeah, I remember seeing Magoo land on someone at the Coliseum Supercross while riding a...Penton/KTM if I remember correctly.  What year was that?

Do I qualify for vet status? 

I'm 31 and take an Aleve before I ride...

Yamahas oughta be yellow

you use the hydraulic platform as an elevator to get in/out of your funmover 

You compare your lap times with your competitors to see which one are sandbagging the vet c class (ie those who have better lap times than you)

All the gear made after Rick Johnson retired looks like clown puke

350’s are the best bikes out there

2 strokes are the best bikes out there

bikes are too expensive

Cheap bikes are pieces of shit and no one should buy them

Tracks are too rough

tracks don’t have enough lines

track is too dry

track is too muddy

has a KTM toaster

When you no longer have to shit 3 times before you put a wheel on the track. True story.

You cuffed your socks over the top of your boots. Don’t exactly know why, but did it.
