motoman 0 Posted January 7, 2012 Hi Everyone, I moved from Oregon to Carlsbad a couple of years ago, and gave up riding dirtbikes cold turkey at that time. Needless to say, my life has been empty, bitter & void of any happiness since then. Hahaa. But really, I'm stoked to have just picked up a plated KTM and look forward to riding off road and learning the area. I grew up on tight single-track in the Pacific NW, but I love the desert and am anxious to be back on 2 wheels again. Here is a picture of my 2011 KTM 450 XC-W with plate and sicass racing dual sport kit. I'm ready to bust off some turn signals! Looking forward to meeting all of you :-) Ryan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrophyHunter 15 Posted January 7, 2012 Looks like you came back in style. I've given up the land missiles but I may see you on a moderate ride or technical ride. Glad you found the place.....look at the Desert Dash for a SDAR immersion. Great time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
