More fun riding dirt than i ever had on a streetbike even in prime season.
It's all water under the bridge, and we do enter the next round-robin. Am I wrong?
Ill keep my street bike for the newbury trips, but thats bout it methinks.

Same here.
I want one so bad. I'm not really interested in getting another street bike, and I think dirt will be a hell of a lot of fun. I probably should just get another wheelset for the TTR for the time being.

TTR125? That's enough for some fun on the trails. I'd rock that.

Dirtbikes really extend the riding season. Plus, I can rip on a dirtbike in a similar way to riding on the track. Just can't get that feeling on the street.
I've also found that getting into something other than riding cures the off season blues. Surfing and snowboarding work for me.

How's the surfing and how cold is it around now? Can you surf in this weather without a dry suit/gloves and everything covered up?

Paul, I'd bet around here its wet suit all year round no?
A friend took me surfing on the west coast for the first time this year.
Drank alot of water! but its got me addicted to finding me a suit and board and looking around here for some spots to start learning.

Surfing is too much of a production up here for me, but find ya'allselves a street legal dirty toy and ride from trail to trail to trail. It's friggin awesome.
I went from riding dirt bikes pretty much all of my life, to buying and riding a street bike. I can not imagine doing it the other way around. I still own a couple of dirt bikes, and I ride them year round. When I proposed to my wife, I told her, straight up, that the one condition was that I would always own a dirt bike.
So, plain knobbys or dual sport tires take me through the fall, then, the DRZ gets ice screws, the KDX gets:

(repost, but it's cheap and works great!)
No snowmobile necessary around these parts. I'd get a 4wd quad before considering a sled.
It's been awesome this fall. Swell every weekend and the temps have been downright balmy. It was 67 degrees sunday with overhead surf. The water is cold at around 58 degrees and dropping.
I wear a 5,4,3mm wetsuit that has a hood. I also wear gloves and boots and will layer fleece under the suit on a windy, cold day. I was able to stay in the water for 4.5 hours on sunday.
I shouldn't be telling you all this, because it has been crowded as hell. Nobody seems to have quit for the season yet.
There's no good waves in the northeast anyways.

Off season? Heck, I rode 10 days ago! And that's a lot considering I pretty close to doubled my season mileage that day. Get some heated grips

I've done over 1000 street miles the last 3 weeks. It's the track I miss.

Well, I only rode the track 2 times this yearI found riding mx trackdays to satisfy my need to ride at the limit, and there's so much technique to learn that it was even MORE engaging than a road course for me.
Trail riding is to dirt what street riding is to pavement. Fun, but nowhere near as technical as the track. By that I mean that you just don't have to repeat lines or techniques as accurately in order to survive. The playing field is much more forgiving of errors. It's fun as hell, but not similar to track riding at all.

I filled the tank on the race bike and put stabil in the tank, then ripped a few poppa whillys up and down the street to you know, mix the stabil around in the gas. Pulled the battery, lubed the chain, and sprayed the thing down with wd-40. I didn't want to put it away. I wanted to hit the track.
The blues are early this year. I need to fix the tard now for ice!!!
