I’m in the process of working on a project within the community/industry on behalf of ALL the ACTIVE DUTY military men and women of the Armed Forces.

Please drop a line and tell me your service and EAOS.

Please no retired or reserves. While we appreciate your service, this is for ACTIVE DUTY ONLY! If successful we can branch into those categories at a later date.

I can’t really give to much info out because this project is in it’s infancy, but let’s just say we should dust off the MX boots and spend a little more time on the track.

I can second the above comment. We just lost 7 brothers in a helo crash in Iraq this year. 4 were reservists from NY. Paying the ultimate price for your country doesn’t only happen to AD.

Anytime. It's because of you guys that we get to wake up in this amazing and free country. Don't know why someone would give a thumbs down for anyone thanking you for what you do. Sorry you guys don't always get the respect you deserve.

I commend you man on Deciding to walk away after you’ve hit 10yrs cause that’s a tough call. That decision to separate or re-enlist at 8yrs I knew would be the hardest cause for me I always said if I hit 10 I’m in it till 20. Now I’m well on the other side of the hill but yeah that decision was tough when I had to make it. I got respect for you for doing what your heart says Good on ya. You still have done more than 90% of the country has chosen to do.

Thanks man. Agreed, it’s tough, I still have days where I second guess myself, lol. Especially when I put on Tech / e6 this year. Buddy in personnel said most people actually make the decision to get out or stay in at 8-10 / 2nd enlistment. But I know myself. Definitely respect each persons choice to stay or go. Thanks for your service and words man.

I feel your pain. Went from 4 amazing tracks all an 1.5 hr or less drive in PA/NJ/DE area to 1 "track" in Tucson. Community is smaller out here, most are really into trail riding.

Yeah I feel ya man, when I made tech it did get a little better and I’m on the back 10 now so there’s a light. What saved my career honestly was becoming a tech school instructor. I’m a Crew Chief so over 10 yrs of humping the line and I was ready to bail. That special duty saved my career and gave a new outlook. Getting that little break was what was needed for me personally

Yeah dude I’m going to have to become a desert rat and do like trail stuff cause it looks like there is ONE real moto track (TulieMx) we’re I’m headed and it’s about 45 min away so not too bad. But nothing beats multiple different tracks 5 min from my doorstep......first world problems I know haha

I talked my wife's niece into staying for 20. She was at 12 and we were in a recession. I told her it could suck and in 8 she would have a pension. She is glad she did and is now a stay at home mom. Her husband is a W-1 and deployed so it works for them.
