    Hit the curb on the INSIDE of the bowl, then slid all the way up to the gravel on my ass.

    Re: Dumbest thing you've ever done on the track

    I think I've hit/jumped about every curb there is, been through the beach, the grass, taken out more than a few cones....I thought it was all just part of getting comfortable with being off the racing line?

    edit: forgot the dirt on the inside of T8, too.

    I'm pretty sure your first year's transportation method ranks higher than all of those.

    Re: Dumbest thing you've ever done on the track

    When I was 17 y.o. I was racing a mass start Hare Scramble in Lisbon, Ohio. Well, at times, my trusty Bultaco 175 would backfire and the two stroke engine would run backwards (go figure, eh). So when the green flag dropped, my bike took off in reverse. I went over handlebars and knocked down a half dozen 125cc class racers.... LOL. Sold the Bultaco and bought a Husqvarna 250 shortly thereafter....

    What I want to know is did you tell the guy you sold it to that the bike might or might not go in reverse randomly?

    Re: Dumbest thing you've ever done on the track

    Just a couple crashes on my end, nothing dumber than my normal antics...but there should be some good ones from what I saw/heard from this weekend.
