2006 YZ250

My favorite place to ride is the backwoods of conconully wash. I know the place so well I can ride allover the place at good speeds and there is a few techniqule trails but also fast ones you can race on and there is mud pits and a small sandpit. Its a just a great place to ride with friends and family. basically could ride there allday without seeing a soul and could even end up in canada, eh.

Hands down, it's Hatfield-McCoy trail system in West Virginia.  It's offroad heaven.  500-600 miles with expect 2,000 miles when complete.  There are about 6 towns now that past ordinances that allow you to ride legally in town with a non street legal bike or quad as long as you follow traffic laws.  You can ride into these towns and get gas, food, whatever.  It's dirtbike/ATV Heaven!!  Anyone into offroad riding that lives anywhere near this place should check it out at least once.  I make 2 trips there annually.  Got one coming up on Labor Day, kick azz!  

well, i have no favorite place. depends on th day and how it's prepped or how the condition is if it's not a track. there is a track in salmon i like and i like the one outside of twin falls. my local track, noise park, is fun when the dirt is good.

Tragedy and hardship are the forge that produce men of steel

A motocross track with lots of tabletops big and small, so I don't break my old fragile body trying to do Ricky Carmichael style triples.  

no kidding, i hate big jumps, unless they are table tops where you can jump 5, 10, 20 ,30, 40, 50 ,60 feet, depending on how hard you hit it. i have no desire to jump anything much more then 50 feet. i dont like jumps so much.

I'll jump up to an 80 foot table without blinking, but somehow whenever I try a little 40 foot double it always feels sketchy. Must just be in my head, and remembering those times I got hurt on similiar obstacles.  

Myplace to ride is Hagermanvalley in southern Idaho. It has been a long time sence i have been there but it was owned by the BLM and you would run out of gas in your bike before you could get from one end to the other. I rode there with Bob Hannah in 1982 when YAMAHA told him that he would have to drop down to the125 class so Ricky Johnson could chase Donnie Hanson for the 250 championship outdoor. Needless to say Bob had no comment on Yamahas decision. Lets just say that he did not finish the year on his 125 and he went to HONDA for the 1983 season and the rest is history  

sweet, i don't think i'm that far from there. cool story.
