    Happy 2-stroke Thanksgiving!

    I haven't gotten to ride for 6 weeks (some of you lucky guys may have a heart attack hearing that!). The stars aligned for me today. Track groomed, 61 degrees here in Wisconsin, wife's blessing, etc. Conditions were epic and my CR144 treated me to the best Thanksgiving I've had, maybe ever! I fall a little deeper in love with this bike every time I ride it. Can't wait to race it! This is the first time I've gotten to ride it in near-perfect conditions, man the handleing really impresses me and the suspension is the best stock (for me) suspension I've ever had. YEAH YEAH YEAH! I'm getting excited all over again just typing this!

    I've only ridden my 2011 3 times since I got it a little more than a month ago and that's exactly how I feel about too. Although my suspension was already done, I've never ridden a bike that turns like this. I can go in as hard as I want, turn, and come out on the throttle with no drama. I've raced my last 125 since I bought it new in 07 and think I'm already faster on the Husky after 3 rides.

    We had the same weather here today, but I had to work. :(

    Sweet looking track and the kind of jumps I love. Thanks for sharing. You are right on just how much fun and how good these little bikes turn. Think I'm going to be getting my WB165 out for sme MX tomorrow and Saturday!

    Nice post! And excellent table at 1:55. I got a Thanksgiving ride on mine, too. Easy 74 miles of fire road on the WR144. Dad and daughter day while she's home from college.

    Cool riding and you did not even do a warm up lap to check the track!

    Thanks guys. And yes, Ray, I did do a warmup moto where I checked the track! Mandatory at that gravel pit! That table is fun. The hardest obstacle is by far the blind jump out of the pit at 2:30 and the triple after it. It's a mankiller!

    I had several people come up to me and compliment the bike and the way it sounds. I also had two people ask me if Husky makes a 250cc 2stroke MX bike, it hurt to tell them no.

    The bike sounds great and you're riding is too.

    Where in WI is that? Those must be some of the biggest hills in the Midwest!
    I grew up in N. IL., so I love to toss out the flatlander and cheesehead jokes :D

    Thanks guys. This is Aztalan MX track in Lake Mills, about halfway between Waukesha and Madison on I94. They offer memberships and race MX the second Sunday of every month and flattrack the third sunday.
