now don't make fun of me... I probably will forget I already said it and say it again! :o :D

I do think I have a better story at work though... other guys my age talking about scratching their legs when shooting their golf balls outta the rough... and I say, Oh yeah? I wrecked my LT250R cranked out in fifth gear going almost 70mph!

But please... no comments on who is dumber! :o :p :D

[gyt-r450]

ive been riding for 8 years:scary:

[Flynbryan19]

I got my first quad when I was 11. Then from 14-22 I raced dirtbikes. From 22-24 its been back on quads.

So I guess in total I've been riding some sort of dirt machine for 13yrs. Looking back on it now, I wish I would've just stayed on quads..... I'd have alot less hospital trips, and ALOT sweeter of a quad. :D

just to let you know ive wrecked going 4th gear wide open and crashed but it was in a field and i only broke a couple ribs but it still hurt

[TRXRacer1]

Been riding since 1980. started on a kit kat mini sled and moved on to bikes, trikes, and quads.

EDIT: A master of all wheels...........lol

[MY450R]

actually ive had a lot of wrecks just got lucky and didnt get hurt to bad. imean ive had a broken collar bone when i was like 13 or so broken thumb wrist toes hand and ribs and ive broken like 4-5 helmets.the broken helmets are a good way to remind yourself to be careful so i hang them in the garage by my wheelers.
oh and i never get drunk and try to ride,ive seen way too many ppl get hurt bad that way
were you drinking at the time??

[flyingbyfast400]

Im 17 right now and Ive been riding for 12 years....:eek2: Carsh wise I think the worst one Ive had has been hitting a parked tractor 5th gear pinned ouch Long stroy and also coming up a little short on a 60 ft double.. But Ive been bucked off more times then I can think of.... Im sitting here thinking about all the bling Ive pissed away on quads.. wow.. I could be rich if I saved it... but whats the fun of that? I think I like being a poor person, and having lots of fun...

drinking before riding is definitely bad news! I wasn't drinking, but banged my head bad enough I have no recollection of that day or the next 2! Previously I've broken my left collar bone, and left leg from riding. This accident I broke my right collar bone, right shoulder, couple ribs on the right side, and left hand... and of course head trauma, which is the second time I've done that. ALWAYS wear protective gear when riding! I was... my helmet and chest protector were trashed... I may not be alive if I wasn't wearing my equipment.

[SRH]

almost 12 years, quads for 6 been racing for 4

[sam the brave]

i got my first bike at 6 years old a yamaha fat cat 80
had that until last year then got a warrior and now my 400ex

[FastHonda400ex]

I started riding when I was 9 yrs old, so it looks like I've been riding for 30 years now. Man where has the time gone....hmmm:rolleyes:

[iceracer65]

started riding a minibike when i was 4( i was so small i couldnt touch the ground so mom and dad had to catch me when i stopped!) so that would make it 23yrs!!:eek2:

[250rAL]

20 years for me. Started out on a 110 went to a 200X then the ATC250R that I have now. Who else can say they've been on the same machine for the last 14 years? And it's better now than when I bought it.

I broke your key yor flipped my ol racin 300 down a hill I think we are even besides it was even more pimp without a key but the gas tank was just awesome it was one of those quick chang gas tanks lol she wasn't bolted down you just had to be careful when you ramped cause you couldn't turn when you landed lol

[kwatts400]

I had my first ride on an atc back in 85, and was into it ever since.
Almost 20 years and still going strong!

[muddkitten]

let's see i've been riding since i was 12 and i'm 24 so that makes it an even 12 years now
:D

[JTRtrx250r]

started at 5...now close to 34:o
29 yrs

[sharkinthepool]

Got a honda 50 when I was 5. up to a 75 then a 100. Then came the cr80 the 125 and then the cr250 and the big crash at 18.

Out of it for 4 years and back on the 125 and 250 then my first quad was a trx 300ex in 1995 and a TRX 250R in 1996.

First 400 in 1999 and the next in 2003. So roughly 22 years!

[MY450R]

whats wierd is that when i got my first bike when i was 6 i just got on it and started riding
no help needed.then i remember my friend came over and tried it and crashed cause he didnt let go of the throttle
oh well i guess im a natural lol

[sharkinthepool]

Yeah!:D After I got a little help from POP on getting going I was off to the races. I got a new CRF50 that I have been adding to here and there. The funny thing is I enjoy riding this one now just about as much as I enjoyed that one when I was 5.:D

Just a big kid I guess

[bama400ex]

[TRX250X]

Started riding dad's 84 200 Big Red 3 wheeler at age 4. Been riding ever since, so 18 years.
