Hey I was wondering if anyone on here raced motocross or did the occasional trail ride on there dirt bikes? Thats if anyone has one. I ride my YZ80 around the house and about to buy a YZ125. It just would be nice to have someone to talk to about dirt bikes and things of that nature. PM or hit me up on AIM.

My brother has a raised kx85 so it's not that small on me and it's actually pretty fast and I ride it once and awhile.

I've been into dirt bikes for a long time. Mainly train riding. I've never raced. Right now I'm in the middle of converting my ancient xl250r to a supermoto bike. I'm somewhat going to miss the dirtbike aspect but I'll still be able to do mild trail riding with street tires if I want to.

I dont ride or anything, but have any of you guys heard of "trans-am Moto-cross"? It's the largest motocross event held in canada, and like 2nd or 3rd in north america, It's held in walton ontario (goodluck finding it on a map lol) But yea, I've volunteerd there the last 4 or 5 years, It's pretty sweet, people come form all over canada and the states to compete. It even has the pro's like jean sebastien roy and the others lol.

If any1 wants to go, i can get you in for free wink1.gif

You had an XR100 eh? I had that bike, and damn I miss it. I sold it to buy my first car, and haven't had a bike since. I would so love to have a trail bike again.
