FUKKIN A!!!
Aight, so we didn't end up going to Rocky Hill, but we did get on an MX track.
Alex brought his ttr125 and his CR125. I tooled around for a bit on the ttr to get used to the dirt, then hopped on the CR which was a world of difference. I didn't really keep it revved up, but then again i wasn't goin too fast... basically left it in 2nd gear around the whole track, poppin into 3rd and 1st occationally but most of the time i left it in 2nd... even if i slowed way down i just goosed the throttle & feathered the clutch to get goin again. There WERE some pretty tight turns so i got an idea of how it would handle trails riding & i'm sure it'll be fine.
I did dump the ttr once when i got too high in a burm & slowed down too much... just kinda fell over, but that was it. Kept it up on two the whole rest of the time.
We only rode for about an hour, but that was plenty to let me know I like what i'm gonna be gettin into Even did my first dirt jump on a MX bike & cleared a little 10 foot tabletop. The last time I jumped somethin on dirt on two wheels I ended up on my head w/ a nice little concussion & lots of bloddy scrapes & bruises, so that was fun to do again
Alex brought his camera & we got some pics so those will get posted up later when he gets home. If the ones I got of Alex are in focus, I got some damn good ones of him boostin over some pretty big jumps.
So... looks like i'll be adding another toy to the toybox soon
