God I wanna learn how to jump a bike. Looks like so much fun.
nice, thanks for pics...wondering if you got any of the uphill double just after where you enter the track? Thought it would look cool if you got any from behind or something.
np. yeah, i was snapping over there at first but a lot are blurry (i was fucking with settings) hate this camera, cant get used to it like my last one.
i gotta crank on some work for a while but if any are decent i'll post up the rest in a bit.. .
haha
Wow, that stepdown double looks fun... where is that on the track? Definitely wasn't there last time I rode there...
thank you for not taking me out... i cant run fast :spit:
it was cracking me up how almost everyones eyes would go right at the camera, even when i wasnt lurking in a danger zone. i have a pic of a kid coming around the last corner before the track exit... bike is going straight, eyes are turned glaring right at me. hahaa
hmm, pretty sure it has always been there. The jump at 1:13 in this vid I took awhile back

yeah, definitely not super small. I just looked at the still photo and thought "yeah, I think I'd roll that" when in reality I'd be jumping it before lunch. :D
Man, I need another MX'er. Actually, I need ducketz. If'n I had some duckets I'd have a nice brandy new 2-smoke.
doug henry ever show up and ride there?
nope
Hypothetically, what's the cutoff for a 125? I weigh 210lbs without gear....
just leave the throttle pinned and use the clutch to modulate, yeah?
If you go up 2 teeth on the rear sprocket a 125 is very usable in the woods or on a loamy MX track. The extra weight really screws you on a sand track. Avoid Southwick and sand pits and you'll be fine. I'm around 195 lbs and I have been able to keep up fine on group rides. The climbing is different though. If I drop into first gear before my speed drops at the base of a climb and hold it around 9000 rpm I can climb almost anything. If I roll in behind a big 4 stroke rider who stops at the bottom to calculate the angular velocity thrust ratios of every rock and root up the climb, I bog and I'm all done.
Pk rides a 125 also and he keeps up fine.
I love my 125, it has more than enough gush for CH.
