uh, im like 20 minutes south of st. louis

its not to far dude, my friends cuz lives up there and she comes down all the time

you know an alicia up there, black, smooooooooookin hot:D, like 15 years old

yeah man, im workin my butt off to get this 250r from this guy, he wants to sell it to me but he has to call me back, i'll prolly call him tomorrow, i don't wanna annoy him but i want it so bad, and my friend who is the quad god around here is helpin me too so thats a huge plus

i'd just, like to take a moment and say, thank you man, for helpin me and teachin me everything about 250r's and quads and stuff, your awsome, peace with 2 fingers bro, you are somebody, i love ya

ok, so i'll be goin down there A LOT when i get my r, so give me ur phone # and i'll call ya and pm ya

let me look for their site

and dude, it is SOOOOOOOOOOOO cheap, you can go there ride the flats, trails, swim, fish, everything for 3 bucks a quad, its so cheap, you get camping grounds for 6 bucks a night, its insane
it used to be 2 bucks a quad, but dude, its so cheap its amazing

just go to google and type in st. joe state park, or flat river, mossuri after them or somethin too

rules down there, you just need a flag and a helmet, no riding double or any of that stupid stuff, no drinkin

we gotta go man

go to wal-mart and get one that goes on a bike, its like 5 or 6 feet long, then bend the metal bracket and bolt it on your grab bar, we put another like 1/8" metal piece on it so it don't bend back easy

her last name is smith

OH GOD

it was sooooo dry dude, dryest its ever been when i was down there, that one huge mudhole was dried up, there were like 2 spots where mud and water sat

one there was like 5 water holes

then on the one side there were a long run of holes by the woods

and yeah, whoops everywhere, i go fast threw them, me and 2 other friends, i go 3rd gear and these are tall and spaced out,

my cuz brought his jeep and that was so fun, he winched a 400ex out of a mudhole, then he went threw it, lol, and he went up almost a wall of sand, dude, it was so steep, it was sweet

i was ridin and pickin up wheelies and goin threw whoops and jumps and i am sooooooooo sore, now i gotta go swim tonite, oh man it sucks

tons of breakdowns for us too, we had 7 quads and a jeep

jeep didn't want to idle

one quad overheated and radiator leaked, then it didn't start so we had to tow this 700 polaris back with our sport quads, talk about spinnin, lol

warrior quit, would only idle had to drive that back out of the trails which have hills and some steep hills me and him were climbin, idled out of the trails all the way on the flats to the parking lot

a 4x4 we were with comes down a hill in the trials ball joint breaks, no steering and front axle comes out, had to ratchet strap that so it would make it out, backed it out of the trails, got the jeep and our small trailer, drove that out on the flats till the trail, loaded the quad up. All that took an hour at least

saw a badarse 250r, drag, huge pipe comin on the outside of his leg, i talked to him a little bit and was the flag man for when they raced, he gave them like 30 feet lead at start and killed them majorly at the end, vs. banshee's, 450rs, predators, he killed them hardcore

Me was wheelies and racin and jumpin, and roostin, lol, and givin advice to some people with engine troubles






!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!EVERYONE IS SO NICE DOWN THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i was pullin up and a strap was in my way and this guy comes up and moves it and is like, "Looks like thats in your way there." im like thanks and we talked

i talked to so many people down there its nuts, becuz we are all friends in quadin

you'll like it

i wanna go again soon so tell me when you head down
