So the wife has been reading articles in the newspaper about how this guy built an MX track and his the neighbors are complaining about it. She called him up and we went there today and rode it. It's alot of fun and proves to be challenging on a trike. It is mostly on wide enough for 1 trike, but boy is it fun. Thought I'd share some pics. BTW - I put Shelly on the 82 R today for the first time. I think it is better for her than her 200X - much easier for her to start.

Here's a couple pics. First one is of me hitting the table top - 4th gear 3/4 throttle get 's it done! Second is of Shelly - video to follow shortly!

Did the '82 250R hold up for what Shelly put it through? How did she like the difference from a 2-stroke to a 4-stroke?

Doug- I feel much more comfortable on my Auto-X and a little more comfortable on my 200X than the 250R. Tim said my extended 200X axle will fit in the 250R, and we need to customize the seat foam and rear shock a little and i think that will make me feel a little better. the 1st generation 250R is by far my most favorite & the only one he'll get me to ride!!! Thanks!

Here's a quick video - I just could not get the nards to attempt the rhythm section this time out. Next time for sure I will. Shelly did great for her first time on a 2-stroke. Doug - that 82 will make a great race bike for Shelly - I'll be looking at the top end soon - seems very dependable thought - we both love it!!!!!! Just needs a little love.
