All

I'd like to get some stories from GuyB, OC, DC and some SX/MX/AX pros too! You KNOW those guys have stories that would put us on the floor! They read this stuff and we KNOW you want to reply.... Come on guys, share your dirty secrets! PLEASE

It amazes me how stupid people can be and the line of BS they will spell to try an sell their junk!

Good observation. I never made it to A, but was a good B rider. As a Vet, having not raced since 1984, I don't know what class to race!

nytsmaC, Ya know, that is what I was thinking. I was curious if the novelty would wear off after a few rides and then I'd be wishing for a 250 again. Good insite! Thanks

I never got the shits, but I always felt like throwing up just before the gate dropped! .

I was racing 125 B at Montrose in NC back in 1984. I fell in the first turn and was way behind. I'm riding like Dungey, all by myself trying to catch up. Then, at the jump right in front of the scoring tower, in front of all the spectators, and the ambulance, I perform a perfect endo! Hopefully my...

HA HA>>> I just blew my soda out my nose!

My first day on my new 1983 YZ125 I did a big endo in a field near my house. Two dudes were sitting in a clapped out Camaro watching me ride. They came over and said, "Dude, that was cool!". I told them I think I broke my hand and they throught that was far out! I had to have...

It's funny, we use to see lots of parts fall off bikes back in the day! Does anyone remember Bob Hannah losing his seat back in 1980 at the Road Atland Trans Am race?

CLASSIC! Getting hurt at the race but not in the race... geezzz...

At least you ripped the holeshot! ha ha!

97, I can relate. However, I will return to paying to ride because it is what I want to do. I can't think of a better exercise. I can spend $30 and ride all day and be sore for several days at work. What more could I want? In the scheme of things, it really isn't that expensive. My friends...

Chuck, When I started, Billy Liles and Keith Turpin were the team green riders that got this all going. I remember nice gates and everyone lining up to watch Billy on the big bikes and Keith on the minis. Half the fun was watching the other classes! Back then, tracks did not open for practice days. I remember when I...

JustMX, Thanks for your input. Yeah, I've spent plenty of time at local and national races through the years. I don't plan to re-write the sport, but would like to cover costs. I'd like for riders and families to enjoy the experiences I had when I was racing every weekend. You're right, many riders think they want longer races when...

If I could find one locally....

Edgo, Anything after 1999 is OK by me. My 1999 KX250 was great, but I was looking for 6th gear on some rides. The bike was sweet and I can't find anything like it for what I sold it for. The KX's were at risk on the lower link bearings. Most non-racers never serviced them and it can be pain...
