    Stimilon Approaching!

    Thinking of hosting a sand practice session saturday. Maybe some open practice, then some mock motos? I think 5 laps of my place might approximate 3 laps of Southwick. If I don't get a good response to this I'm going surfing, so let me know!

    Re: Stimilon Approaching!

    I'd love to, but I'm heading to the Twisted Throttle open house Saturday, so no pre-Stimilon training for me other than my 4 hour trail session last Saturday.

    Nah, but I can be ready to ride by 3 pm. The days are looong now. Leaves plenty of evening riding time.

    Re: Stimilon Approaching!

    Just got my new Pirelli MXExtra rear tire mounted up. It looks a little higher profile that the MXMS and perhaps just a little more med/hard biased. Supposed to grip well, adn wear like iron. We'll see.

    Also finally checked my valves. They haven't budged since I had Mxtime cut the seats and install kibblewhite SS intakes. I must have 20-30 hours on them by now, so that is excellent news. Supposedly it's all about good seat prep to get these things to last. I'm happy with the results.

    I also got my piston in the mail. I won't be doing that til after stimilon, but I have all the parts ready to go. I feel like I've already gotten a full season of riding in this year and its only May!

    New fibers arrived last night and are soaking as we speak. Interesting fact - BelRay Gear Saver oil can eat it's way out of a ziplock baggie.
