thank u i just ditched my tc and pt a n motion on it i need some updated pictures haha

[Sjorge450R]

Damn. I really need to get out there. AND i really need to get to Atco. There are so many people on this site that I want to meet in person and I think the only one that I have actually met is Josh (MXJunkie)

Pappy. We need to have an official ATVRiders.com group ride. I joined right after the last 'Official' one. Why hasnt anything been established like this since 05? Maybe we could do an East Coast at Breezewood and then you west coast guys could do something at Primus or something.

[Which 450?]

For everyone that has been there, how intimidating is it? My friend and I just got bikes about a month ago and have been outta the sport for about 2-3 years. We really would like to make a trip there this saturday but arent sure if it will be a good trip or not since im sure we both really suck.

Tried several times, but noone ever seems to have a good weekend etc. Usually on the big BPG event weekends, the place is filled with members....its the ones who ride the keyboard that never show!

BPG offers so many option lines that you can build up to the bigger jmps....its about having fun not who can go the biggest!!

the intermediate track would be great for you to ride on...lots of tables and stuff to move up on once u get comfortable

[Mattman88]

hey thanks for the words of wisdom, we would like to come out this weekend but not sure if we can fit it in our timeline. We only have Sat to ride and wouldnt be able to camp friday night. That would make for a long day Saturday with getting up that early. Who knows though we might try to make it out.

Jesse, did you get a new bike? It looks a lot nicer since the last time I saw it!

Also, is anyone going to be there this Friday? I'll be there with some people....hoping for NO RAIN!!!

And I live 5 minutes outside of York and it takes exactly 2 hours to get there, like ATVMX33 said..not a bad drive at all and worth every mile!

[Redrider99]

Iam going out either friday or saturday for the whole weekend.if it looks like its gunna rain then were going out early saturday

[Which 450?]

[dan harris]

Tracks and weather is looking good for this weekend. They did call for a shower sat morning. But they just changed it and now its suppose to be friday night. I expect the tracks to be in good shape no matter what the weather does.

[Mattman88]

Dan do you have any trails along with the tracks? I thought I read somewhere that you had a small amount of trails so I figured I would ask.

[jesseweaver]

yea there is a loop out around the 3 tracks. pretty fun, i've riden it a few times. not sure exactley how long it is? 3 miles?

[ATVMX33]

also a short enduro type course

True. One day there it rained 3 times during the day. It dried up within a half hour after the shower each time. But I had fun riding the track while it was raining anyways!!

I doubt its 3 miles, I'm bad at judging distance though. Anyone gonna be there Sunday?

[diangelo#67]

I should

[jesseweaver]

Originally posted by Which 450?

yea i was kinda thinking the same thing but i always underestimate the length of trails. it just goes out around the perimeter. maybe actually a mile?

[jesseweaver]

i cant wait to try out the uphill triple but man am i gonna miss some of those jumps :(

Im headed up now, look for the hotwheels 400ex

[Mattman88]

That was the most fun ive ever had in my entire life, even though I sucked hardcore lol. I dont know what to compare the track to because I havent been there before, and I think it has changed. I certainly liked it alot and plan on going back and making another day trip during the week before it closes for the winter. Only had one small layover which surprised me and came home unscathed, just very sore and tired.

[Which 450?]

On the way home now. Had a good time today, awesome track conditions, dont really even have to wash the bikes. I cased a double on the intermediate track and goofed up my ankle. Jesse weaver got intimate with the flag jump.

[outacontrol]

define intimate

[Which 450?]

Up close and personal!

[Which 450?]

I'm sure he will explain, lol.

[ATVMX33]

Originally posted by Mattman88

thats how i feel every time i go...haha

[jesseweaver]

yea lol not too much to explain. i hit the flag jump and came up short, no problem i just skipped out over. next lap i tried a gear higher and shifted way to late and had zero power and the nose just dropped. i'm not too sure where i landed but i think it was a little over 3/4s of the way to the lander. i landed all on the front wheel and it was a little sideways and i flew out over the bike and out over the lander. if you've been there lately you know now its a long kinda steep downhill there so i sailed the whole way down. bike went cartwheeling from what i hear and i ended up down towards the tires down there probably a good 50, 60 feet from where the nose of the bike first hit.

i alright i think, just sore all over. my right knees pretty swollen and bruised and same with my right elbow. and my whole back is scraped up and bruised and it hurts like crazy, thats probably the worst part. every time i move my spine like bend down for something or anything it feels like its on fire. other than that just a bunch of scrapes and a bad headache still and my 3 middle fingers on my right hand are pretty purple from the last knucle up and pretty swolen. dont think they're broke though.

and the rear of the bike is a little corked lol the subframe and exhaust points to the left. my pipe is pretty much over my rear tire now. yea well it was time for exhaust anyways.

and i think 2 other people today did about the same thing as me on the same jump. i know at least one other guy on a yellow LTR did.

[outacontrol]

yeah that jump doesnt have much of a take off ramp for the speed your going at it, so i could see it making you into a lawn dart if you werent into the power. its a pretty good distance to fall off that downramp. glad you werent hurt more serious.

[jesseweaver]

yea heres the only picture i got yesterday. i tihnk my front wheel hit somewhere towards the right edge of the picture. i ended up laying down in those tires

[Redrider99]

[KOG]

[dan harris]

New jumps are awesome on the big track. I just got a chance to ride my 400ex out there. Still didn't nut up enough to try the downhill tripple. Doubled it, and I think I can get it - next time for sure. The uphill tripple tripple is killer fun !!!! The new flag jump is alot of work on a 400 but still very fun. Should be excellent on a 450 !

No rain today even though they called for it - don't believe me check out our new weather cam that shows a live shot of the tracks every 10 seconds : http://www.breezewoodprovinggrounds.com/cam.html

[Which 450?]

Hey does anyone know the condition of the guy that got flown out today? Or what happened? I didn't even know someone got hurt till I saw the helicopter coming in.

AND BTW Dan, I found my backup gloves.

[warrior12]

i hope that guy is ok.

and dan i love the big track set up cant wait till im there next. when i come i will have all new sprockets too =p

[diangelo#67]

from what I heard he was committed to one of the back triples, and the bike shut down. get well soon


don't know the extent of injuries but they said the bike was pretty tore up

[jesseweaver]

man that sucks :(

anyone see a yellow can am there sunday?

[diangelo#67]

yeah two dudes one riding guy was pretty fast on a scam am

[hondaracer31]

Pretty sure it was on the high speed step-up after the downhill triple, my buddy was second on scene(and set up the LZ).
He had feeling in his legs, but could not move them. Hoping it is a bruised spinal column.

[warrior12]

anyone have any word from him?

[sunco]

I don't hit the big stuff like FlyBoy but........

^^^^^:macho ^^^:macho ^^ turn left :macho :D

Once again Dan - yeah make me look good. If you didn't do such a great job building em I'd probably be just another old man on the track :devil:

See ya next weekend

[wgw11]

He went down on the high speed step up. I was tripling to go to the be uphill triple and i hit it and saw everyone just stopping to ride and then got the the bleachers and saw him down.

[flyboy62]

that was a great weekend the big track is SOOOO smooth! we will be up this weekend as well.

[JR3]

looks like snow and 34 degree temps for our trip awesome

[lonnie1977]

Cheer Up JR were gona have a great timer.

[ATVMX33]

yeah...was just checking out the weather....

think snow chains on my 450 would work??...haha

[KOG]

anyone gonna be up there tomarrow ill be up after work

[dan harris]

......First off - NEVER Trust the weather man, I think he's a crack head. I'd dress warm for this weekend, but definately wouldn't worry about snow or rain. It never rains in Breezewood, and if it does I'll just till it in.

Keith Appleby was the guy on the Can Am that took a nasty spill on the step up this past Sunday. He says his motor cut out right at the take off ramp and the bike nose dived. He did break his back, somewhere in the t12 area. He does have feeling and movement in his legs and the Doctor says they will have him up out of bed and walking soon. We are working on having a ride day at the park to help keith with some of the cost of being laid up so long. I'll have more info on the ride and fund raising later this week. I'll be sure to post it here as well. In the mean time I hope everyone will keep keith in their prayers.

[outacontrol]

well thats better news. let me know when the ride day is, ill try my best to make it..

[wgw11]

was he low on gas that his engine cut off?
does anyone know?

[warrior12]

i talked to him before it happend and he said his quad was running like **** and kept cutting out. and i dont think it ran out of gas because his friend road it to the trailor.

dan thanks for all the info.

[wgw11]

oh ok cause i know when i was there that day mine was low and it cut off at the lip off the down hill triple and i cased it bad and almost went down. but saved it. and im yet to clear that triple

[ATVMX33]

yeah, my last trip there i ran out of fuel on the old ski jump...engine died in the air

Tracks are hard pack now and draining great. As long as its not raining the tracks will be in great shape once I run over them witht the tractor.

[Les Davis]

I like the sounds of that Dan!! I'm doing my anti rain dance right now!!!

[quad2xtreme]

Gotta watch Dan, he will redirect his IP address to a web cam at a track in Florida. ;)

[lonnie1977]

[dan harris]
