The truth of the matter is I was the oldest and slowest last year. The only one who crashed, and quite often everyone had to stop and wait on me while I fixed crash damage on me AND the bike. I was unworthy of the talent that surrounded me.

I was truly impressed with the exemplary riding skills of the esteemed XR-nut. Nobody, and I mean nobody can push a big red pig thru the forest like that guy. He once went by me doing a wheelie while standing on the seat. I heard him mutter something about KaTooMs being for pussies. What was most epic was, when he flew by me like I had just dropped anchor, launched off a terrace and came down and smacked his nuts so hard on the tank he had to almost stop, (come to think of it, he did stop, that's the only reason I caught up with him). Between taking heavy roost off of Stacey's '25 all weekend and trying to keep up with the legendary "BIG RED",...... I was truly humbled.

So there, let the truth be told. :mrgreen:

Did Stacey find out who hit & run Andreas car at the banquet last Saturday nite? Oh yeah, No pee-wees at Milford Joe, you gonna come out and race on the 5th row where you belong?

I'll for sure be on the BIG ORANGE PIG in Arkansas as I found out last night that somebody beat me to the five-two-five. I was on the fence on the damn thing anyway. You and me XR-Nut, we'll be pushin' some iron thru the woods. WOOOOHOOOOO!

Hold the phone XR-nut, I just got a line on an '07 EXC450 that's all blinged out. Bad thing it's a 2.5 hour drive to get it. I'd have to sell my RXC400 to make room in the garage for it. Man,... I don't know what to do......

If the price is right go get it! The 450 for '07 is an awesome woods bike. 2.5 hours isn't bad for a pickup.

Don't worry, I'll be on the Orange Pig, I talked myself out of it for now. The 450 is in Nixa MO and for sale on KTM talk, totally blinged out with a set of street wheels and cush rear hub too. If someone wanted a properly dialed '07 450 this would be a good one. I don't really have the time or energy to put into a new bike right now anyway.

Talked to Donnie and he said he was going to try to get his 650 back together and make this ride. We'll see.
