Title: ISDE - KX500 anyone?
Post by: Rick on November 04, 2003, 02:32:42 AM

Don't know if anyone is following the ISDE that is happening right now, but with all that beach sand, and the low degree of difficulty (not very technical, unlike most ISDE events), I'll bet some folks wish they had the big green monster under them...

I have always tried to talk my wife into letting me try and get on a club team and race the six days, but she thinks it costs way too much money.  Heck, all you need is an extra bike to ship a couple of months before the event, air travel to/from the event, hotels, rental car, 5 sets of tires, brake pads, plugs, a barrel of race gas, 5 sets of riding gear, lots of extra parts that are legal to change, and oh yes, gotta take a test trip to the race site just to get to know the terrain.  I think 15 thousand should cover it.  Can't imagine why she won't let me live my dream  :? .

Take it to 'em Team USA :!:

Actually, for me personally, don't need one! Gets caught up on the riding gloves! :wink:

Besides...I think people should live out their dreams and I wouldn't stop them.  :mrgreen:  And THAT is not a typical chick answer!

I'm the one that coaxed the monkey into buying that new sweet '04 KX125 to use as a track bike...heh, heh.... :D

BZZZZT!  

The correct guy answer is to buy her a $500 clear rock that LOOKS like a $15K rock.  Then take the money you didn't spend on the rock and finance your ISDE trip.
