I ride an 02 RM125 modded to hell and back. It's only slightly slower than a 250 right now and weighs about 40 pounds less corners better and the suspension is all Pro-Circuit so it jumps like a champ. Our local riding spot is Hollister Hills, we drive about 30-40 minutes every single Sunday to ride.

Hell yeah, we go just about every Sunday. You should meet up with me and some of my friends sometime. Do you ride the MX track or trails? We mostly ride trails up there do all the hill climbs and single track stuff. I love riding.

I ride up here in the great white north! Im racing in the CMRC southwestern circuit this year too. I ride a 02 cr125 with boysen reeds, fmf fatty pipe and shorty silencer, and Rethal twinwalls. The snow has finally melted up here thanks to some rain, so Ill be riding again in about 2 weeks time. I just threw in a fresh top end and all I have left to do now is greasing my head-stay and swingarm (and linkage) bolts and Ill be good to go.
I wanna come to the states sometime this summer and ride. Anyone got some good suggestions of tracks in Florida or ones that are with a 1-2 day driving distance from Toronto?

Those damn KTM's are straight line MONSTERS. They make more power than any other bike in thier class. I just read the 2004 125 shoot out in Dirtrider and the 125 SX made 36 HP to the wheel. They also mentioned that in 1984 they did a 250 shoot out and only one 250 made over 36 hp. So that tells you how far bikes have come in the last 20 years.

I couldnt afford the maintance if i rode my bike everyday....I would have to rebuild the top end and get new chain aprokets like every month. But it would be cool though!!!!

But i went to hollister yesterday druing school, and omfg. it was hot. WE got in a good four 1/2 hours of riding until i ran out of gas and had to coast/push the bike back. That sucked.


Then we refilled and rode THE BUMPIEST TRAIL EVER. Which kicked my ***. I"m soooooooooo sore this mornin.


But i'ma be at metcalf tomorrow around 1ish if anyone else wants to show up.
