    Why I ride

    Lately I have been really down.This I girl I like ALOT likes my freind.My R is apart and it is going to be about 2500 to build the motor the way I want to.All my pay checks have been going straight to my parents to pay fro school tuiton and car insurance.I haven't rode for about a 3 weeks before tonight.


    So I ask my dad if I can ride the 300ex and of course he says no.Then he thinks about it and says alright just check the woodstove.So I do and put the razr's on back and holeshots off my R on front.I had to go buy some gas and tighten the chain etc etc.

    So I finnally take off and head straight for my favorite jump.It is a tandem dump truck load of sand that is dug out really steep on one side.And a clear landing area.So I go hit it and really fly.Man I am starting to feel better.I go into a big feild.Probably 8 acres wide by 15 acres long.It is a really BIG feild.So I pull it up on a wheelie and start bangin gears and get her in 5th and just keep riding.What a feeling man.I almost forgot what it felt like.I Jump the jump and ride wheelie's for about an hour.Then I go play around on a dam by a lake and some more sand piles I am making a berm in.


    Needless to say I feeling so much better.I can't wait for tommorow so I can do it again!I love riding 4-wheelers.

    Why I ride :D

    I rode up my driveway and back the other day..its about a 1/4 mile. I remembered why I am so happy when i get to climb aboard my quad. I shifted to 5th gear, pinned the throttle and the front tires came up about 6 inches until i hit the rev limiter...aww the good times! :square

    Talking I am with you man!!!!

    I ride because it makes me feel alive and helped me to realize who I really am. It took me back to the great outdoors I grew up with that helped me survive growing up. I ride because I love the sensation of racing down trails at speeds that make me breathe a prayer of thanks that I survived another day's thrill. I love the thrill of jumping and floating suspended for those seconds when quad becomes plane I love the art in motion when carving between trees and conquering whoops (like I did last weekend down at Wamba Cycle trail near Charleston SC----over 100 miles of whoops in 2 days). I have met great people in this sport and experienced more thrills and adventure in a month of riding than I ever dreamed I would experience in a lifetime. I love trail riding with my friends but I will be lending a lot of my riding time to racing this year ahead!

    I agree with you guys. Whenever I am down, I just hop on the 300 and go riding, its the cure for everything. You know except like the flu or something, then you get worse. lol. But just being out there riding its just so peaceful, its just hard to explain the calmness I get riding in the trails, jumping a couple of little hills. So I guess if there is one thing we all agree on its that we all love to ride.
