Chief Gunner 2 Posted October 4, 2009 Thanks for posting up the ride Tree, I had a good time meeting up with you guys. I was trying to be extra careful with the 500 starting out. That bike is a total beast...I can't believe I have not ridden dirt since March, that is so wrong I gotta do something about that.....Like shut up and ride By the end of the day I think I was doing allot better, finally got into third by 2:00 I was so beat I had to call it a day. I left at 2:30 and headed home. I'm gonna be sore tomorrow! Sorry I forgot the camera, the only picture I got today was a cell phone pic I took after I got her all purdy again.

Chief Gunner 2 Posted October 4, 2009 Thanks John; I enjoyed it too. I also enjoyed watching you cut some laps on my five hundy. I liked the idea of having someone who rides better than me take it for a ride and confirm to me that I picked a good one . I am always up to ride with and learn from people who know more and ride better than me. I adjusted that front brake so the lever mount is out of the way and I ordered an new longer shifter for my size 13's. I am also going to throw some decent hand guards on it too,. After you guys left I was trying to following that kid on the white YZF around the track, damn he's fast!!! I got nailed in the hand by a good sized rock that made my knuckles swell up a bit to add to the insult of getting smoked by a kid more than half my age . 2 Strokes Rock!!!!!

Tree 0 Posted October 4, 2009 When we got to the track I was a little wary about the layout. Not any huge jumps a couple of table tops. After taking a few warm up laps it got pretty fun trying to attack the track and find ways to get around faster. altough those sandy corners did suck me down a couple time. Overall I think a fun time was had by all. It's a great way to get back in shape after a long lay-off. And it was nice to see everyone out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ShocknAwe 0 Posted October 5, 2009 I rode Golden Acorn today for a couple of hours. There were only a few guys there and no one there to collect money so I got to ride it for free. It was fun, but I like it a bit busier so I can watch better riders ride. There is no real substitute to jumping out there and riding with great riders (even if it only lasts a few seconds).
