Anyone into dirt bikes?

[dirtbag]

Seems like exotic cars and Harleys are the norm for the "AA" crowd.
There must be someone that loves to muck it up in the dirt. I still love to ride as a way for our family to have some fun together. We plan our holidays around going to different places to camp and ride. I ride a 2011 KTM 450XCW. My 11 yr. old son rides a Yamaha TTR125 and my lovely wife is on a quad, 2010 Can Am Outlander 650. We even take the dog! It's a great way to stay young!

Probably not too many. But I do ride a Yamaha TW200 for quick trips to the post office on the steep, curvey gravel ranch road (0-1800' elevation in 5 miles) as well as a Polaris RZR 900, Yamaha Kodiak 450 ATV, and Kubota RTV for ranch work on the trails. 69 years old. The dog runs ahead.

Kids are the reason I still ride

I sold my last dirt-bike a Yamaha 360 Enduro a couple years after I got married. That was a long time ago. It was fun but riding it beat the hell out of the body.

I bought KTM 350 freeride 5 months ago. On my first ever serious ride on it, i broke my tibia, tore my ACL and screwed my meniscus. Still nursing the injury.

And because of that, i got into audio hifi. ps i hv been riding overlanding last 20 years. I will riding again when i fully recover.

Really? That's great! What kind of racing? I grew up on a snowmobile. My home town was Beausejour Manitoba. They have a 5/8 mile ice oval and sno-cross track.
I remember the days when the late Gilles Villeneuve would come to town to race sleds before he became an F1 Legend. Snowmobiling is the only thing I truly miss from the prairies.
