Rocky Mountain Dirt Riders

...and while the mention of trophies is still fresh... I, as the knob-head who showed with the kid's trophies a day late, need to take this opportunity to formally apologize to the whole club, and especially the event organizers, for failing to deliver on Saturday. I have no defence for not being th...

The link to the website privided in the top post took me to the vdub website, but not the page. How does one find the bike once on the site? I'm not much of a re-builder...yet, anyway, but the big TM is kind of motivating. I did ride a couple and rode closely with a few guys who owned'em. Thrill a m...

Thanks for the replies guys! Zeal, I'll PM you with some questions on the 200 so as not to clutter up the forum with niggling detailed questions. The bike sounds interesting...to me at least. Although, being a KTM it's going to tie up a few more scheckles than a comparable Japanese scooter. See'ya i...

Hey Crew! My brother, intermediate skill level, is looking for a fairly recent used off-road bike. His desire is a KDX 200, but he will likely be interested in any, sub-open class, recent year 2-Stroke. A KDX 220, KTM 200 would likely be fine too. He might step up to a 250 if nothing else smaller sh...

Damn...." jump across the creek...."?!! Now I really wanna go riding with you guys! I can be the one who lands 3 feet short and get fished out 150 yards down stream.....by the beavers whose doorway I'll be wedged into......when you get them to release me for a ransom of pine bark & willow roots....r...

Hey C2W! I checked out the links you posted to the KTMtalk site and some of the 2-stroke e-start discussion. Depending on how serious you are, I do see the benefit of the quicky button...even on the easy to start 2-strokes. Being a second quicker on a dead engine start, or having the button to re-ig...

Cool! I learned something new already. Parade lap, eh?! Not having actually been to an HS yet, I did not know there was a practice lap. Bit more like an extended MX then as opposed to an XC where most of the pack is seeing a lot of the trail for the first time only after the start of the race. Nonet...

Anybody sitting with some still decent scooters they'd like to slide off? I'm looking for more than one for a special little event some nutcase buddies :bonk: & I are planning for a weekend in June. Don't need a perfect unit, but would prefer 2-Stroke as they seem to put out a little better. Looking...

This fully baffles me. E-start, 2-Stroke single? Why would this be a consideration unless the bike is sporting something like a 600cc barrel or bigger? I have no memory of even open class 2-strokes ever being hard to start. Did KTM do something to the 300 that makes it nasty to start? Like give 300p...

Hey Big Dog! Per my questions & response to Dobi about the HS, I am looking forward to finding ways to help with the racing events this year. I am hunting down & moving into some new digs early this year and will be trying to ride as many events as I can province wide throughout the season, however,...

Sounds like the kind of action I was expecting! Looking forward to getting into it. (gotta get me a camper...again) Did I read between the lines correctly understanding that we could work on setup and still actually ride the event too? That would be too cool. I was already assuming that, if we worke...

Neat peek at that country! Never really seen it except in a few pictures here and there. That rock is slippery stuff!

Thanks!

I want to book ahead to free up time from work to help with set-up tasks for these events. Looking at the ADRA schedule I printed out, I see: RMDRA H/S McLean Creek July 14/15 RMDRA X/C McLean Creek Sept 15/16 Can someone in the know confirm that these are our iron clad dates? :confused: Also, havin...

Right On! Glad to hear you got it hooking up good. It was kinda frustrating watching the struggle in the corners that the video showed. :bonk: I was gonna say it would be cool to see a video now of you guys kicking butt, however, I guess that would just be several laps of open track and then the che...

Thanks Dirtyboy!

With the size now jacked up to 147k, I'll take another shot at mastering the avatar.

If the system humilates me, yet again, I'll double back and fire my original to you as suggested.

Now for some pixel shrinking....
