Had a buddy I used to work with at Fastway fly in for some riding from St Louis. He is going home spent for sure. 155 on the DS bikes and 190 on the dirt. Great weekend with great friends. He picked the perfect weekend too as the conditions could not have been better. Coffee ground dirt, no dust and mild. PERFECT. Also scored a perfect camp ground all to our selves. rode almost every second we were awake including some night riding. Could not have been a better weekend. 2 tent trailers and 5 bikes... awesome camp spot that now has a MX track around it Dsing some cool roads and trails to a cool lake... Lets roll Great trail everywhere. We dropped gas for Sundays epic 95 mile ride that went off without a hitch... buddy Jason from out of town rode my WXC250 and LOVEd it. Said it was the single best all around trail bike he has ever ridden (he owns a 2010 TE250 and has a YZF450 and YZ250 as well). Rode my WR144 for a mile and stated "I'm buying one" Buddy Mike enjoying the ride (08 TE510) Mountain goats frolicking... More railing... sometimes everything just goes right and this was for sure one of those weekends.
Jason is one lucky dude getting to pull off a ride like that. Hopefully he won't be ruined on the midwest riding we've been doing as our season should just be getting good. Sounds like he's got a little case of the small bore flu as well. Great pics as always.
We talked about you some. He is stoked for good riding this year. He loved the 144 instantly, some people it takes a while to learn the motor. He hit it perfect, the conditions could not have been better. I was already setup with camp, his buddy Mike picked him up from the airport with all the camp / food crap, He slept in my trailer and rode epic guided routes with stashed gas, and is now out tooling around in my turbo Saab. He owes me one. See ya soon.
Are the husky that much faster than the other bikes, you have all that free time to take pictures? Fantastic RR, and pics. What kinda Yahoo rides a envirment killing dirt bikes, and owns a eco friendly Saab?
