Wouldn't it be easier if you stayed out of the mud! Just kidding I have been in the desert so long I forget about stuff like that!
Alan :lol:

I miss the desert. I grew up in the Mojave, CA area but never had a dirtbike when I was younger and could really use one. Now I have one of the best dirtbikes ever made and cant find anywhere to ride the darn thing without dealing with spark arrestors, transporting the bike from here to there or WAY over there blah blah blah.  At least it stays clean and I dont break anything though. What fun that is. Its starting to really get me down. If I still lived in the desert I could ride right out my front door and ride for miles and miles and miles.

I grew up on a horse ranch so I know what you mean, its depressing because if I moved to where there was good riding I couldn't get a job that would pay for my toys.

I've allways transported my bikes. Back in the bad ol days, we had to scoot them along the footpaths and be ready to kill the motor and hop off reall quick if we saw the feds. Then sometimes we'd get chased through the towns local "Senic Reserve" which was a choice place to ride after school (sometimes during school), by the feds.
 Lucky now days not to have to travel that far to get gooood riding in. 50 miles in 3 directions will result in some very exellent ride terrain. I try to ride most weekends in the 3 warmer seasons.

Timbowe,
  Maybe a dumb question, but how hot are your average warmer season months when you ride.  Here in Canada we ride march - june, hit the lake for July & Aug (35 - 40C) then resume riding in Sept until the snow flies in Nov. Then is snow skiing time until April. Skied a day with some guys from Taz last winter. Fun guys! Cam.
