Thanks Derek. This will be my first time to one of Dave's Cross Country races I'm told that he likes to put on a challenging event.

Re: Crowsnest XC

I don't see a poster for this race on the ADRA sight. Is there a link to a map somewhere?

Re: Blast from the past

Thanks for posting those articles. I never did get a chance to race Vega when Rudy was running it. I heard a lot of good things about it. Vega was a 24 hour race back in the eighties I think Carl Kusters dad was running it, Vega was a lot bigger area back then. What year did the CMRC come in? Alec t...

Re: Canadian Extreme Hard Enduro Announcement - XTINCTION!

The Sunday race was awsome to watch. I didn't care for that much grass track on Saturday but the racing on Sunday more then made up for it. :thumbsup:

Re: Second Gear Club , MESS UP of " Sportsman Division "

Trying to make a course to easy can actually make it more dangerous because he speeds increase. There is more chance that the beginner riders are going to make it to work on Monday morning if they are struggling in first gear then if they are tapped out on some easy trail. Off road racing is all abo...

Re: Second Gear Club , MESS UP of " Sportsman Division "

My first race Rennie Turner asked my how it went. I complained about all the wet roots then she asked me if I would like her to go out and dry them off for me. That's when I realized that I better suck it up.

Re: Second Gear Club , MESS UP of " Sportsman Division "

Ziggy runs all kinds of different classes to include everyone in their races the truth whoever was helping set up the trails probably just ran out of time or the terrian didn't offer any easier alternative.

Re: Blue is coming out with a two stroke in 2011

It's just a move to help the Husaberg dealers in Europe, not enough people buying four strokes over there I guess. The 300 sure looks good in blue.

Re: If you ever raced MX

I remeber seeing him race the expert (Pro)class with his son in the seventies and being impressed. When I got back into dirt biking and found out he was still riding(and a world vet champion} I was super impressed. The guy was a legend.

Re: Diesel trucks

I have a 07 5.9 cummins 21mpg empty and between 11 and 15 pulling a 30 toy hauler. It has a manual and revs to high on the highway I'm thinking of an overdrive unit to bring down the RPMs down. No problems with the truck with 60k's on it. My brothers 96 cummins as 500k on it with just a clutch repla...

Re: Wheel Wobble

It sounds like what you might have is called head shake. The most common cause is the suspension is not set up properly .
Setting the rider sag to what your owners manual recomends is a good place to start.
