Title: Hello from Central CA
Post by: KenV on April 07, 2010, 01:08:47 PM

Hey all.

I just joined up after seeing the opening page and saving it as my work desktop  8-)

Rides: 1995 KDX200, which my wife rides, and a 2001 KX250 which flattens my eyeballs when pinned.  The KX was my first dirtbike, second one I have ever ridden.  What a blast.

My first real ride (i.e., not the RR track areas near my house) was at Dove Springs.  I learned that the KX deals with the thin air far better than I do at this point, provided I don't snap the clutch lever at the beginning of teh ride...can't wait to go again nonetheless.

Anyway, off to cruise the site.  Neat place!

  Welcome Ken,
Glad you found the forum.  It's nice to see a husband/wife out tearing it up together.
 You know what they say, "A couple that rides together, Rides together".. :| well something like that...
     Plenty here to look through, and your wife doesn't have to worry what you're looking at :-D

Thanks much.  This area really is an all-year affair for hitting the dirt.  It's so much fun I don't mind the cleanup, the premixing, etc.

...actually, I'd rather premix all the time than spend who-knows-how-much on a 4T head rebuild.  I grabbed both bikes for under $3K total, for goodness sake...lovin' that!
