lol well, like most of us in the nothern part of the country, i've got the blues..... i wanna ride so bad but with temps hitting -3 degrees F, without factoring in windchill it hasn't happend. i got bored today and found some pictures of some trips. we took last year... thought some of you might enjoy them. warning.... not all of them are 400ex's.... but for some it might take you back..

the days of the old, cold blooded honda 350X are back again. this was taken on a friends property. the hole was doug with an excavator. you can stick to the walls if you go fast enough

as you can see sometimes it needed a little bit of encouragement to make it back down the hill. this was very tricky because you had no run at it. had to treate it like a pendulum Sp?
