A local driving school with a bit of land next to it that was renting PWs, PW80s, QRs, quads, ATC. (what should do every driving schools)
I saw my father and brothers trying it when i was 3, got with them on a ATC a few times, then started on a PW at 3 and half. Rode almost 3 times 2 hours a week like that until i was 8, ended up kicked out of the school because i was riding too fast and scaring newbies, then moved up at almost 9 to a 80CR and was quite fast after only a few months on it.

Scared and thrilled.
The Shop
The neighbor kid got a clapped-out Arctic Cat mini bike and we rode the wheels off that thing. When I was 12, my dad bought a cheap at-1 Yamaha at an auction and I started riding that. I saw some kind of TV profile of Marty Smith (this was before cable, I don't know what show it was on) and there were mx racing clips. It was so awesome looking! I started buying Motocross Action and Dirt Bike mags and became obsessed.
My sister started dating my future brother-in-law and he was into bikes. His friend made me a deal I could afford on a 77 CR125 and it was all over! I still have that Elsinore to this day.

That film changed my life, well, at 12 years old, it gave my life direction.
Yup, it's entirely their fault.
I couldn't possibly ever thank them enough.
