    LL Rider List Update

    I am confused with this stuff! Please explain... How does one get an alternate position? Is that based on finishing just outside the qualify bubble and if there is a no-show you are in? Also, if you finish outside of the qualifying spot and several in front do not show - then is everyone...

    Same Old Smith Road???

    I too went to Smith Road Wednesday. The track was great. Some berms, some ruts etc. Great for everyone. I liked the combination of ruts and berms. I will be back - especially when the pee wee track is extended for the kids!!!

    Possible Indoor MX Facility in SE Columbus Area Coming 2012/2013

    Always a great idea for riders. As a for doing it to make money I am not sure how long it would take to recover and make a profit. I am sure we will hear all of the complaints about "Too many indoor / tracks" etc. Too many places to ride is never a bad thing for the riders. I hope it works...

    Crf 450 wter pump leak hole seal...

    crf 450 leak Thanks a lot. At the moment, it leaks when cold. But heats up and is fine. So, I will probably wait a bit, but am going to prepare to change it. I always have back luck when I change ANY kind of seal, so as usual I dred it.

    is it possible to give this up????

    This is a great thread!!! I think we all think about quitting. Riding gives me a reason to live. Sometimes, I think about quitting to make better peace in the family - you know and jump on the Disney World band wagon with everyone else in this house. But why? To be MORE miserable? The...

    Shoulder Surgery, Successful?

    I had mine done in 2009. I tore the labrum and the cuff. It was falling out of place etc. Anyway, the recovery time was about 6 months. But, maybe your is not as bad if your labrum (the cup that holds the bone in place) is not torn. Let me say this: the first week is nothing less than...

    Me vs. Kids and wife

    Thanks guys. You all have given some valuable insight. Before the wife and i had kids, she would grade papers while I practiced! Talk about a dream come true. But after a few injuries and 3 kids later she is not there in my MX life anymore. At this time I don't know how it will turn...

    Me vs. Kids and wife

    Hi. Those of you who know me are well aware that I LOVE riding, camping and racing. However, my 2 boys (8 and 6) could care less. They would MUCH rather play video games. However, when I consider selling their bikes they flip out. My wife hates MX also and I do not get ANY support from her...

    CRA promoters/racers

    Georgie: I could go on and on. So I will try not too. As a kid I did not have much more than the necessities. My friends had stuff handed to them. I put myself through school, sat in classes thinking, "This is what I am paying for?" while my roommates partied constantly. Still, I toughed...

    Amherst question

    That jump was not better in the past, it was more dangerous. The landing was really short and always a big divot. Now, it is shorter, however much safer and 1000X more fun. The landing ramp has been stretched to allow riders to come up short w/o getting hurt. One might say that it separated...

    Pymatuning Raceway

    The boys and I drove out to Holeshot last Friday on a whim. I must say that it was worth it. The track is great, the owner is super-cool and we will be going back. I am not sure why they do not seem to get the riders that others do. The stadium-style seating is great and if you like safe...

    Parma Dave Saves The Day!!!!

    After losing tons of sleep over the new noise on my bike I gave up trying to figure out the problem and took it to PARMA DAVE. I took my bike to him because he knows his stuff, can give me a quick return time and is priced way better than anyone else. Dave quickly went right to work on my...
