Yesterday's Riding Summary (and awards)! Well, yesterday was definately one of the best days I've had riding my fiddy (granted I've only had it 3 weeks and more great times will come, but hey ... I'm entertained easily).
I got there a little bit after everyone else (Adam, Mike Smith, Jordo, & rennan), noticing 2 things on arrival; 1) the wind was coming out of the north and was a bit brisk, & 2) the smell of death was in the air! It was either the river or a dead body. I hadn't smelled anything quite like it and unfortunately the smell didn't go away EVER! It was so aweful that I thought my clothes were going to pick it up for the trip home. Someone said later ... "it smells like bad vagina!".
After a little bit of riding Jordo convinced me to burn down my dirt tire, so him and Mike proceeded w/ the burn out. I was skeptical at first because I do live in a rural area, however hitting better wheelies is my goal at the moment so I said "git er dun"! Mike & Jordo used this old *** abandoned Ford sitting there in the lot (who knows where this came from). Once that was done I could definately tell a difference. My wheelies have improved somewhat, but I still have a long way to go.
Once this was complete, Mike brought out a box of chocolate donuts for everyone. After he chucked a few at Jordo we then started playing "football" w/ the donuts and throwing passes to one another. This then turned into a "throw 'em @ Adam" game. We chased him around the lot on foot, then got the bikes and proceeded across the street for the chase.
Once the chase was over, Adam figured out how little traction there was in the wet grass. We all raced around and around, running thru puddles, and doing burn outs. Seeing Adam run into Jordo's rear end wasn't the safest thing now that I look back on it, but it was funny as hell and noone got hurt.
I've havn't laughed that hard in the longest time ... what a blast.
From here we moved back to the parking lot to regroup and decide where to go next. Mike looked out at the group and said "it looks like a gang from Mad Max." Adam had his neoprene (sp?) mask on and Jordo had a hard hat on. Before we left I decided to join in on the fun and threw on my MX helmet (I should have done it earlier b/c it was nice and warm in the cold wind).
We decided to head over under the bridge next to the river and see what was going on. Mike ventured out thru the gate next to the tracks and we all rode about half way down the tracks. I was a bit iffy on this choice due to the large "no trespassing" sign, but all was good so I followed (I know, I know ... I'm a puss). We all got about half way down the bridge, looked down thru the grates at the fast flowing river and decided to head back. Brennan rode down to the other end, but I have no clue what's even down there.
From here we went down under the bridge towards the little concrete house. At the end of the little access road we all stopped due the huge amounts of mud and water standing there. As we sat there and thought about our next move, we all jerked our heads around as two homeless guys came out of the little concrete house (looks like an old track switching station to me). I said jokingly "what if they grab one of us" and the look on Jordo's face was priceless.
We now come to the first award of the day ...
MVB (Most Valuable Bum):
Someone (I believe it was Jordo) decided to see if one of the bums would take a few dollars to ride a fiddy. I believe the amount given was $2.00 ... this was offered to the first guy who declined. He motioned over to the other bum and this guy accepted. Bum #2 tore off down the access road about as fast as possible. We all followed just in case the dude ran off w/ Jordo's bike. Jordo was left standing there until he jumped on w/ Mike Smith. As the bum turned around and hit this one muddy spot, I thought for sure he was toast. The bike's front tire came off the ground, the guy hits the trottle, and the bike almost goes flying.
The guy turns back safely and hands Jordo the bike back. I just wish we would have had a camera ... hilarious!
Now, back at the end of the access road, Jordo says to Mike ... "I'll bet you can't go thru that puddle of water". Mike blows thru it, we all follow, and proceed to ride thru the muddiest patch of earth ever! Adam, Mike, and Brennan make it down to the other end, but Jordo's bike stalls and now won't start. I stay back with him as he gets it started, he does, and we turn back. Mike, Adam, and Brennan now had the muddiest bikes.
We then came back under the bridge and hit the wet grass again which brings me to the next award.
Best Crash:
As Adam screams across the wet grass he hits the back brake, does a 180, and flys off the bike hitting his back and head on the wet ground. It looked a little painful but he recovered and rode off. Wearing a white hoody on a day like that wasn't the best idear!
Anywho, thanks for the ride guys. It was damn fun ... purchasing the little fiddy was one of the best things I've done. Being the geezer @ 29 sure doesn't matter when I'm on that thing!
