Title: Got to Dune FINALLY!!
Post by: pinned250r on May 05, 2014, 03:18:17 PM
Its been a miserable winter, but finally had a 50 degree and sunny day to hit the dunes. The wifes R ran great after the rebuild this winter!

I even took it for a spin towards the end of our ride and raced a predator 500, trx450, and yfz450, they looked at me so goofy, pulling up on a pink bike, until the yfz only beat me by 1/2 a length. :) Then they all slammed the brakes before the whoops at the end of the strip while i just pinned it through them. #girlprobs i guess.

Overall it was a good day, still some fine tuning to do on mine, but i love the Roll No Link Swinger! Got to hit the whoops hard, slow, everything, and it rode like a dang cadillac!

Do you ride Silver Lake dunes? I used to ride with a guy from Michigan and he had some crazy stories from there

Yeah I ride silver, it's a great place, small but it's enough for us and plenty of room on a weekday!

Yeah I am very blessed to have a wife who loves to ride(and isn't half bad at it either!)

When I ride with the wife, it is a totally different mind set, just out cruising. If someone rolls by and wants to get peppy I'll lay into it and just come back with my chest all pumped up to show the wifey I still got it though.

There's no need to wait, just let them go forward while you go sideways:quad:
