I was living in Daytona FL for 8 months and now I am moving into Albany NY working in a motorcycle/atv service department. The name of the place is Phibbs Powersports. These guys have a large sales volume and some of their prices arn't bad. Check out the web page at www.phibbspowersports.com. If anyone is around the area you should let me know because I am new to it and don't know where there is any good places to ride.

At a point down the line I will be doing performance upgrades and suspension tuning and revalving, for motorcycles and ATVs, and eventually go into business making race engine out of new-age technology high strenth (nuclear level) PLASTICS or similar substance.

Need to pay off and save up for a few years though, I'm sure most of the older crowd knows where I am coming from with that lol. So if anyone is ever in that shop within the next few years (hopefully) just ask for Jayson and give me a shout.

-Jay

I've lived in Binghamton my whole life so I am from upstate NY, it's just I relocated for the job in Albany. But Lake George isn't to far away so that would definatly be possible.

Theres a track in Granville called Hickory Hill, pretty nice track. If someone is up for a ride, lets get together. The only thing is I dont have a Honda,lol I have a Polaris. We'll have a blast. Any 450r's around here?

Yea thats the only bummer. Theres alot of trails up here and what not. I have a riding buddy that rides a 400ex. Theres one that takes you to from Fort Ann to Whitehall. Theres alot of mudholes, but us 2 wheel drives go around them. We should do a group ride if someone is up to it.

Yea I am not so much into track riding because my machine isn't set up for that. But trail riding is always fun and usually US NY is notable for the trails that are around.

I'm in poland, its just north of utica, there are some good trails, and sand pitts here. Most of the trails are on posted land, but we ride anyways, if you wanna check out some great riding I'll be glad to show ya around the pitts.
