Does anyone race motocross also? If so what do you like better. Riding the roads or the dirt?

 

I dont race but i like to get out on my old dirt bike when its rainin. Dads got some land out in Lake city Fl. and the trails can be quite fun in the mud.

 

I raced four wheelers(1988 TRX 250R that is for sale). I know you dirt bike guys are real fond of the quad riders(HaHa). Ive raced a few big nationals finishing in a decent 12th out of 40 at Loretta Lynns in B class in 2003.

 

I ran moto-x back in the late 80's and early 90's. Kinda got out of it when I found out about girls, cars, beers, girls and beer. I loved it... but there's something so much more for the raw speed on solid pavement. The risks are a lot higher, in a sense. I mean how many times a day do you crash and burn in the dirt? I did a lot, if I came home clean, it meant I broke my bike really early in the day.

 

i race motocross from time to time (5-10 times a year) and i would have to say that motorcross gets the adrenaline flowing quicker than street riding. when that gate drops, there is nothing like it. its a green light to abuse your bike and your body all for a trophy that costs 1/10 as much as it costs you to get to the track. and there is no feeling better than driving home from the track with your ankle in a brace and a muddy mess of a bike in the bed of your truck.

 

You said if perfectly NINE2NINE. It is hard to do a 90 ft. double on my F3.. and I dont really want to try it. PIZZLE.... yea i dont care for quads that much but 12th is crazy good at Lorettas for B class. There is nothing like reving your bike to the max for 15 minutes straight. The only thing is that it gets pretty expensive after a while.
