i trail ride. the last time out felt like trials riding. we were on rock crawling trails.

here are some pics of the first time we went out when i got to phoenix a couple months ago.





my buddy dumped his 2002 KLX400 into the gilla river the last time out and hydrolecked the motor. Bent con rod!!! sucks! less than 2000 miles on a $7,000 bike.

Thats funny. Its one thing to have high asperations but to say you are going to get to bubba's level by riding 2 times a week is just dreaming. You want to break bubba's record? You mean RC's record he broke? Like wheels said. quit school and ride every day for many years and maybe.

And who does not know bubba? Maybe SR5_Dave, but that's only because he lives in a cave!

...Good one... get to bubba's level...

I have an 02 RM250, mototassinari reed block, RG3 suspension. I race hare scrambles at the local VDR motocross track (when I actually have time to) and do trail riding. I also have a 92 RM125.
My daughter has a Xtreme Machine 90cc quad, my wife has a 84 200X 3-wheeler. I also have a 74 Honda ATC 70, and a 78 Honda MR50 (both restored) for my son when he gets older.

As far as being like Bubba....no way without 100% dedication to motocross and training. Bubba is more than human on a motorcycle and the best the sport has seen. Beating locals at the practice track and whooping up on bubba are two completely different things. My friend has a son who races in local pro races and is the fastest person I have ever seen on a motorcycle, he can lap most anybody at the track on his 125 and wins pretty much all the harescrambles (even with fuel stops) but he couldn't even stay on the same lap as bubba in a race.
It's good to have dreams, and keep trying, but aim a little lower...like Mike Brown or something.

I have two bikes to my name. The first is a 1998 xr250 bored .80 over and also has a k&n airfilter. The second is a 1990 yamaha xt in the works of being a 4 second dirt drager or faster. It will inclued a white brothers header and pipe, bored .60 over, NOS nitrous system, dualcarb setup, race cam, and a 4 inch extended swingarm.
