Default First Ride Report of the Season!

Pulled them out out of the basement today and then proceeded to ride up and down the driveway with my two kids for about 20 minutes. Phew... Time to hit the showers! Good times!

(I be you guys want your click back now, right?!)

Left to right, my KLX351S, my son's KLX110, and my daughters CRF50 clone. (and the polaris all the way over).

We can't wait to get out once the trails have dried up a little bit!

Yeah ,,,, I was looking for a bit more riding there Army. Any riding is better than none ,and at least you got them out of the basement. Nice stable you have there. Great way to spend some time with your kids. Lifelong memories.

FYI It got to a crazy 86 degrees here in N IL today. 50 was the high a couple days ago. The warm weather is a coming.

We're waiting for that weather Dan! I was in Akron, OH last week and it was snowing when I got off the plane. Today was in the mid 50's here. Bike's running great. I have my new cam chain tensioner and it "seems" to have helped. The problem is, some days I think I can here a ticking and other day's I can't... we'll see.

I wanted a number two (Villapoto) but couldn't find one. Got a good deal on the 27 graphics kit on ebay. Spruced up the bike a bit. I bought it used and it's very clean but the plastics had a few scratches. Kid thinks he's racing...lol.

Good stuff! I'd like to get up to ME this season.. I keep hearing about good riding up there!
And it's cool that you got your little ones on bikes.. I just found out a few weeks ago that we have our first little one on the way Supposed to pop out sometime in mid-late November. I just hope it's a little boy so I can have a riding and fishing buddy

Keep on keepin' on!!
