Neil San Diego 0 Posted December 17, 2013 New member in Vista. I've been riding street bikes for 30 years, but haven't been on a dirt bike almost that long. Just got a Husky Terra 650, and my wife got an XT250. Hoping to get some off road riding in soon. The little bit that I have been in the dirt with the Terra has been great. I've already learned a metric ton from reading here, hope to learn more soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagstr 288 Posted December 17, 2013 Welcome Neil, glad to have you with us. There are a few husband and wife riding teams on the site. My wife is happy to follow my travels on the SPOT map. The best way to mingle with other riders is to Post a place and time, then wait for the riders to sneak up on you. SandBagger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That would be perfect for me. Unfortunately, no free time for me until after the new year. I also still need to put together a tool kit complete with tubes. That will should be a fun learning curve... :)/> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
