Well, you jump all you want. I'll be doing the "hopping"
all i jump are the small jumps on the beginner track.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
c'mon with the suspension under that 450 you should be good for at least doubles. a quad like that will make even a first time rider look like a pro. hell by noon I'll have you doin superman triples. 
Posted by: seatec
Yeah well, i am 280 lbs so yeah its pretty plush. hehe.
As for the supermans. you are welcome to use my quad to do one but you wont get me that high in the air. if god wanted me to jump that high he woudve given me frog leggs. oh wait. i have frog leggs.
Posted by: Honda5
seatec you can cry all you want about your age but I think I'll be the old one in the group at 37 I have an excuse to be the slowest one there (if I start breathing real hard get me some oxygen)I'll have the 450r there and my buddy has a c-dale moto.
Posted by: seatec
hehe. damn. im not the oldest. oh well. cant win em all
Posted by: Honda5
Sounds like this is going to be a fun time. The wife isn't sure if she is going to ride or not but at least 2 of us will be there.It will be real easy to spot me I will hawe the only450r with front hipers and some trashy aluminum beadlocks on back.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
Hey I am in the running for the youngest at 31, but I bet I am in the lead witht he most kids. wooohoo
I am really getting syked for Saturday. Now they are saying a high of 54deg... bring it on!!!
Posted by: seatec
ah you are going for the rustic look.
I am easy to spot too. im the 6'4" 280 lbs guy with a white ifz450 with hipers all around and is rolling the peewee jumps.
I have a 2500HD Chevy Duramax Black.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
damn looks like the big guy has big pockets!!
I'll be the broke midget on the old raged out quad!!! look for the '75 pinto w/the boat trailer converted into a quad hauler

Dude, you crack me up. Wrong about the deep pockets though
As for the pinto. can it do 70? THats what ill be doing to get to easton. BTW, WHere exactly is the park and ride on 152/95?
I cant miss it? I usually get on 95 via 24.
I still have some prepaprations to do for tomorrow. Gotta clean my air filter. Replace a bolt on the air boot to the carb. check the tire pressure. work work work, <sigh> And my WIf thinks this is a hobby. It's hard work i'll have you know. NOTTT!!!!
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
dude my pinto hauls instead of getting it painted I just left it primered so I could put nitrous on it!! Man that little 4 banger really screams. I think it will do 65mph on the bottle. Man I can see it now me and the pony pullin the x down RT50 jammin to some Styx (you know ridin the storm out) it will be just like goin down da ocean hon.(spoken in the worst Dundalk voice ever)
Well if you are going to be doin 70 I guess I will have to leave the pinto at home and forget about relivin the early 80's.
I'll be in a white F150 w/the x machine in the back
when you come down 95 get off at the next exit (74) go through the light then turn left, go across the bridge and then you will see the park and ride! I'll be sitting there waiting at 7:30am
Posted by: seatec
I could always just trow a tow strap on the pinto and haul you out there. hehe. Wish i had a trailer. that way we wouldnt need two trucks. oh well. First i have to find a house where i can park a trailer.
The arrow in the pic below points to me where i will flip the quad on the peewee track double. KNarly ***** man.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
LMFAO. I have a trialer coming. It is a 16' tandem landscape trailer. but that don't do us any good. Ahhh I will have it next week. 'till then it's just me and da pinto baby!! I'll give you a call later this morning I have to get some things going for work then I'll call you.

Delaware152, who is going to riding the Polaris? Your dad?
You could always ride your EX....at least if you do that, and stay in 2nd gear I will have a chance to ride with you...lol
I will be in a 1500 Chevy...grey, with a pewter bottom...And a white 400EX with white plastic and the number 187..
Can't wait
Posted by: seatec
Good news (for me anyway) My riding buddy has succesfully Talked his wife into letting him go out to play tomorrow and will be joining us. Good for me as in he has a YFZ450 also so i wont be the only Yami dude out there. J/K It's all good. I am getting very ancy here and want to ride bad.
Go ahead Eric. give me a ring. if i dont pick up , im in a meeting and will call you back on your caller ID if that is cool?
Anthony
Posted by: YLW400
You guys with these new yammies and Hondas are going to have to be easy on me..... I have a very slow machine, and I can't ride worth a lick..lol
Posted by: seatec

i got Delaware152, Ericthered rdr, Honda5 and wife, pgregg131 (maybe with Kevin), a friend of mine and you and me!
8 to 9 peeps. we should have lotsa fun.
I vote we do a little contest. Who gets around the peewee track the fastest.
(watch some 8 year old beat us on it)
Posted by: YLW400
Cool, I am sure a few others from aroud here( they don't come on here though) will show up as well......Delaware152..any word on those Denton boys?? It seems like we are going to have a good turnout!!!
Posted by: YLW400
And by the way, those kids on the peewee track are a little too fast for me...
Posted by: seatec
THat would be cool if we can get even more people out there. My buddy will hope fully bring his new digital camera so we can make some cool group shots. before and after.
Posted by: YLW400
I can bring my digital cam too!! We should be able to get some good action shots too.
Posted by: seatec
YEh, action shots of me bouncing of the ground
Isn't it funny how neonimpact started this thread but is not chiming in and riding out with us? Don't mean any offense by that.
Posted by: Honda5
I talked to one of the guys from denton and they are going to seaford on sunday (they are going to freeze their butts off!)
Posted by: YLW400
I saw that seatec....lol
Who did you talk to Honda??
Posted by: Delaware152
YLW400..I'll give the Denton boys a call. Last I talked to them they were going to Seaford on Sunday. I talked to Gil and they are going to Seaford also. I'll have to take it easy on Saturday so I can ride on Sunday. I am going to ride the Polaris and I sold the EX so that is not an option.
Posted by: YLW400
Those girls can't ride 2 days in a row?? lol Does that Polaris have a low range?? If it does, thats where you have to keep it.
Posted by: seatec
Just picked up some film for my camera. Yes i am a computer geek without a digital camera. Can you belive it.
Got some nice high speed film and ill just have them put it on a CD so i can post them. AM i the only patron? if so. take your pictures and send them to me if you want them posted.
Posted by: Delaware152
No, it's a 400 Sport. I think I can take ya!!
Posted by: YLW400
damn it, those things are fast!!!! lol....But I have better suspension on mine than you do on that thing!!
Yea, it looks like it Seatec...one of these days I will become a "patron"..lol I can always scan them and put them on imagestation I guess...
Posted by: seatec
I just talked to Eric on the Phone. He's seems like a pretty nice guy. He is totally psyched to go riding tomorrow. As am i of course.
Eric and i are going to hook up and convoy down to easton together. I hope i remember how to get to 97 from here.
Anyway, I got most of my chores done during lunch. Haircut (so my helmet fits) fresh exxon 93 test fuel for my baby. battery and film for the camera. all i need to do now is prep my twinair filter and toss and turn through the night until morning.
Good thing that there is a Truck race on or i would drive my wife nuts pacing through the house.
Posted by: YLW400
I have a few little odds and ends to take care of on the quad tonight, but nothing major....Seems like it is going to be a heavy beer night out in my garage tonight...lol You do know where you are going, right Seatec? lol You've been here before, right? I am ready to go!!! I am going to be a little late, I gotta do a little of that Valentines shopping in the am, but then I'll be there
Posted by: Delaware152
YLW400..Does the beer help you or is that just an extra excuse. lol
Posted by: YLW400
Oh man!!
I don't need any excuses, everyone know's I'm slow 
Posted by: seatec
DOnt worry about being late. we'll just warm tehtrack up for ya. Will try to save you a spot. have a feeling that its going to be busy there tomorrow. I bet we are not the only ones on hot coals.
As for the beer. My average intake of beer is about 3-4 cans a year since i moved to the states 7 years ago. before that i was a party animal. Funny, i was a lot skinnier then.hmmm???
Posted by: YLW400
Sounds good to me!! Yea, I bet it is going to be fairly busy..
"moved to the states"? Where are you from Seatec?
Posted by: seatec
I spend most of my life in the Netherlands with a 4 year stint in Germany. Army Brat. Sort of. Ill teach you guys some cuz words in dutch.
Posted by: YLW400
Ahhh Interesting!! Cool, I am all about bad words!! lmao
Posted by: seatec

Posted by: Honda5
I am almost ready I have the wife, and 2 other guys going another friend said him and 2 others will be there also. damn I feel like a kid on Christmas eve.

Posted by: kellam
i would like to ride with you guys. me and my buddies ride around my local area and dont get must exposure to new places and any thing other then trail riding. just got my honda on wed. and i havent got to ride it yet. we ride mainly off of 95 and route 198 on bg@e owned property. its pretty quiet there, and fun too. theres a tunnel under the highway and miles of trails to tear up. all right dudes have fun tommorow
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
It's go time heading out to meet Seatec now! See you guys there
Kellam come on and meet us the link to the site is
HTTP://WWW.THELANDINGMX.COM
cant wait to meet everyone and ride!
Posted by: kellam
cant make it this weekend because of v- day. but ill go next weekend if you guys want to go again.
Posted by: seatec
Well Guys and Gal. Let me be the first to thank all of you for a really cool time at The Landing. Everybody is even nicer in real life.
I especially had a good time since i saw somebody who was even bigger than me
THanx again GUys for making this a very enjoyable day at the track. Since i am probably the only guy in the world who doesnt have a digital camera, the pictures i took will have to be developed first and put on CD. Maybe tuesday. WHere are we going next?
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
Hey I had a great time today!!! It was great to see everyone and get a chance to ride. We had a good showing today at the LandingMX in Easton. I wish I had more time to hang around today. Now I have something to look forward to in meeting up with you guys again. I was very happy to get a chance to try Seatec's 450 man that thing was all balls. It better be I can't even imagine how much he has tied up in that thing. Honda5 is that thing for sale yet? Hell anything beats the old X machine! Well it was nice to meet and ride with you guys and I am looking forward to the chance to meet again, thanks for letting me ride the 400 and 450 now I am more ashamed of the X machine then I ever was so I guess I am gonna have to buy me something to be able to hang with you guys. Well gotta go and take some more Advil I hope I will be able to walk tommorrow I am already sore as Shyte!!!
CYA
Eric 
Posted by: Honda5
Well guys we made it back all in one piece. Got home washed the bikes and then went to Kent Island for a V-Day dinner. That was rough to sit through dinner and being tired and sore!!
Well we had a great time riding with you guys and hope to meet up again. Will probably run the race at the Landings the first weekend in March.
Got everyones name except for guy with the blue 450. What was his name? Mr Honda is having problems remembering since he crashed! All his memory side of his brain came out his right ear and all his artisic side got moved to the middle now he can play the piano like Mozart. He really fine just hand is swollen and ribs are a little sore. Bike and helmet are great!!
Posted by: seatec
Eric,
Glad you had a good time. I'd say you where doing pretty good on that x. YOU might be supirised that most of the money i put in my quad was in the hipers and tires and the rest is just skid and nerfs and such stuff. only thing i did to improove preformance is change jetting pipe and airbox lid off. Glad you liked it though. i still missed the chance to ride honda5's trx but there is always next time.
I shouldve kept my mouth shut to YLW about usually not hurting after a ride because today my leggs are killng me. Oh well, advil will me my friend today.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
I am sooo friggin sore today! I guess I just gonna have to lay around and watch the Daytona race. The wife and I are big Nascar fans. I am going to bring the little dudes with me next time I felt terrible going home yesterday for not bringing them. I want to try Rausch Creek next. So when are we going?!?! Hope that wreck wasn't to bad honda5 hope you are ok.
Posted by: kellam
sounds like you guys had a lot of fun. count me in next time
Posted by: seatec
Cool, I am a bit of a NSACAR fan too. Its my wife thats obsessed with it. hehe. My main is Tony and second is Newman. My wifes are Jr and then Happy Harvic. If you are a 24 fan then you and my wife are going to have it out. lol
Anyways, i think Dave was ok. he could breath easily so no harm done.

Posted by: RTSE440
Well after riding with some great members of exriders, I had to register on the "RED" site. I'm Chris....seatec's friend with the blue YFZ. Had an excellent time riding with you all. Looking forward to a Rausch Creek trip too.......SOON! I got some pics on my digital. I'll try an post a few in the next couple of days.
BTW.....I'M SORE !!!!
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
Glad to see you join us Chris. So what is the pee wee track like at Rausch? Is this a place for the little guys? I should have my trailer for next trip.
Hey Seatec I guess your wife is letting you have it since Jr. took Tony. That was a good race between those two. My favs are Jr. and Tony so I really enjoyed this race. Well I am going to hop in the Jaccuzi to try to relax man I am getting more and more stiff as the day goes on!
Posted by: Honda5
Well Eric if we knew you had a jacuzzi we would have been over. We are both sore too. Dave is fine just sore. His hand was swollen this morning but has gone down down. His ribs are just sore-not broken. Rausch Creek sounds great! When are we going? We pick up the new camper tomorrow morning. We will then be ready to go ride and camp, just let us know.
BTW-tell the wives to come too so I'm (Becky) not bored with just the guys...just kidding but it would be nice to have some females there too!
Posted by: seatec
Hey chris. glad yousigned up on the board. if you want the pictures posted i can help you. you have to be a paatron to do so.
Yeah, that was a good race wasnt it? Michael wrecked out big didnt he?
GLad Dave is ok, Becky. We cant wait to get up to Rausch creek aswell. i understand its going to be 50's next weekend.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
So Dave let's hear the details of the wreck. I want to learn what not to do! I hope it wasn't on the pee wee track
hey Seatec what's the deal on the taking the kids to rausch, is it a good idea or is this a big kids track. If it is more advanced then the one at the Landing it will be too much for them they are on 50's and they are only 5 & 6 y.o. and it will be thier first time to a track.
Becky I will try to get the wife to come with us on the next trip. MY only concern is she will make me buy her a quad and that will mean she would get one first before I get anything better
Posted by: seatec
Eric, Rausch is great for kids, they have two great peewee tracks, they dont let any big bikes on them either. Hey, give you x to your wife and you get a z.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
the X Machine is for sale 1500 takes it
the wife needs an auto clutch 250ex/z250 to the resue
me.....that 450 has me awfully excited!
Posted by: seatec
which 450?
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
yours
Posted by: seatec
Did you have a chance to try the TRX? I'd try it also before making a decision. Can't really go wrong with either though. I am sure Dave will let you try it next time we get together.
Posted by: YLW400
Thanks a ton Seatec for letting me ride the Yammie, thats a very nice machine. I had a great time, it was cool to meet some of you guys! I am ready to go again!! J.C.
Posted by: seatec
Hey, just ask and ill let you ride it anytime.
All you guys have given me a dilemma. I thought i was a woods rider but now that i am little more confident on the MX tracks (well, the beginners track anyway lol ) i am leaning towards MX. its very exciting to cut through the corners and head towards a jump and landing it perfectly.(ok laugh guys. you call them hops but to me they are jumps ). Maybe i should work out some more so my quad wont have a heart attack when i start jumping bigger stuff and give a C-Vet MX race a try. Wadda ya think? Budds creek comes to mind.
I should have my pictures back today in digital format so i can post a few tonight.
Posted by: YLW400
Thats a very easy dilema to get out of...Set it up for MX lol
Eric, are you looking for a 400EX??

Sorry for the picture quality. I promise i will look into buying a DIgital cam as soon as funds permit it. FIrst have to mod the YFZ a bit more.
I dont have any good pics of RTSE440 and Ericthered but will get you guys next time. Sorry about that.
One last pic of Delaware152, YWL400 and another exrider who's name i didnt catch.
Looks like YWL400 was telling tall tales again about how he had to jump over that moose to take the win in his latest MX race
Posted by: YLW400
that must of ben right after I bounced my head off of my handlebars..lol That is Pgregg in that pic Seatec
Posted by: kwatts400
Looks like you guys had a good time. I hope to be able to go next time. (Holidays in the restaurant business suck). The landing may only be 45mins or so from my gf's house, so next time I should be in.
Posted by: Honda5
Seatec, need your email address so I can send you a pic of your new camping spot.
Eric, the 400 ex is not for sale until maybe after July. I (Becky) have to take it to Michigan to ride the dunes. You tell your wife to come to the track the next time I'm there and she can try the 250 ex out and then you can go buy her one. She might in return buy you a new one later.
JC-as soon as our track dries up, I'll have you over to try it out and if you think the rest of the guys from ex-riders might like it we will have them over for a ride and picnic!
Dave is ok. His wreck was not as bad as we thought! He doesn't know who he is yet-but that's ok! He wrecked on the beginner track-on a flat right-hand turn-go figure?? Can't wait to get together again.
Posted by: seatec
YLW400, oh forgot about the head bounce.
Thanx for Naming the other person in the pic.
Hope you can make it next time kwatts
Posted by: Honda5
By looking at the pics above it looks like Dave is getting more air than JC-and they both got hurt that day. What's up with that?
Posted by: seatec
Well, you think there is a direct correlation between air time and pain? lol
Posted by: seatec
Guys, check out the motorhome Dave and Becky just picked up. Dang. Dave is pointing where they so graciously will let us sleep when we hang with them Thanx D and B.
Posted by: seatec
Sweeet!
Posted by: pgregg131
I just got back to Maryland after driving to Indiana to pick up my new trailer today. I had a good time at Easton as well. Its good to see they lowered the price to ride there.
Posted by: seatec
Hey Greg (i assume thats your name), What kind of trailer did you get?
I heard that The landing use to be 40 bux or something!?
THere is this ATVpark in southern maryland that charges people 50 bux a pop. how can they be in business?
Anywa, hope to see you on our next outing.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
Wow sure is nice to see how the other people live!
Posted by: seatec
yeah the daves family is definately doing well. good for them. i like it when people are doing well.
Posted by: Honda5
Seatec-if Dave stands on our payment book for the camper he is as talls as you. Anytime you would like to borrow the payment book we will be glad to give it to you. B

That just cracked my wife and i the hell right up. I hope you enjoy it enough to make it worth it though!
Posted by: Honda5
Seatec-Dave says that one night of you sleeping under the awning will make it worth every payment!
Posted by: seatec
Well, tell Dave that is very nice.
You guys crack me up.
Posted by: kellam
what are the tracks like that you ride on. ive never been on one
Posted by: pgregg131
It is a 24 x 8.5 ft car trailer. The brand is Vintage.
Posted by: seatec
Thats a pretty big tailer. Set up a shop in that thing.
Kellam, If you are asking me, i ride on all kinds of tracks. Woods and MX. Not very well, but i ride them none the less.
Posted by: YLW400
Dag on Honda5, that thing is nice!
How does your trailer pull Paul?
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
Hey guys I hope I am not the only one that is still sore! I need a ride with more suspension. I bottomed out quite a few time and I think that is why I am still hurting.
YLW to answer your question I am looking for a new ride. I am not sure when I am going to do it though because I need to get my knee's fixed and that is going to limit my riding time this year, but if I run across the right deal I am going to jump on it. I see people are starting to unload there 400's to get 450's at really low prices just to unload them.
So have we started working on details for our next ride? It sounds like Rausch is the place. WHen is the question??????
Hope everyone is doing well
Eric

Hey I saw that this thread had 299 replies so I wanted to give the 300th reply. Man if Neonimpact had any idea what he stared?!?!?!? What ever happened to him anyway. This is by far the most active thread in this fourm.(where to ride)
How long will this thread go???????????
Posted by: YLW400
I have contiplated selling mine this year, but I don't know if I would have the time to get another quad, set it up and get accoustomed to it for this race season....I am definitely going to sell it before next race season, thats for sure..
I am still a little bit sore, not too bad though.
I am hitting Easton again this weekend, or Seaford..One of the two!!!!
Posted by: seatec
Eric, i have to admit that i am also a little sore, still. THen again, i have a good excuse. I am a Desk Jockey.
Going out to Easton again. Saturday or Sunday?
I understand that there will be some rain around here this saturday.
Dave and Becky got me and my wife going again on the RV stuff so i am thinking about hitting the RV Show at the Maryland Fair Grounds in Timonium this weekend. Will have to find a place to park the damn thing. That's one of the things that suck about living in a Townhome. Dirt Cheap but no space.
Does Seaford have a website that i can check out?
Posted by: YLW400
I am not sure on what day yet.... What day is good for everyone else?? Are you planning on coming Seatec?
I think it is
www.middlefordspeedway.com
But they don't have much info on the MX track on their page though..
Posted by: seatec
Well, i might be persuaded to come up. I have to get with Harlen and see when he wants to go to the Motorama in harrisburg.
And then there is the RV show. I am thinking about this bad boy here.
Toy Box
What do you think?
Posted by: YLW400
That thing is money!!!! Will you buy me one too????? lol
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
Damn all I can say is when I grow up I want to be rich like you guys. Until then I will stay the little Italian man....Meafundsalow
Anthony that is so friggin awsome I like some of the options on that thing especialy the screen room. I stopped and looked at a 28' similar to that one at Chessaco and it was about $22,000. They have a storage lot there I don't know how much they charge.
Sounds like bad weather this weekend
Posted by: seatec
YLW. F'n financing dude. THats al i got to say. Unlike Dave and Becky who will let you sleep under the awning (how generous of them ) i will let MY Friends sleep in side. Plenty of room. Thats why i am looking at something like that. With you pigs (and me!) i can just hose the thing out.
Hey Eric, you of italian decendants? We are paisan then. I know, i dont look much like an italian but my grandpa was. I am what you get if you mix and italian guy with a tall blond Northern European woman. Scary aint it?
Can you see us tracking down to H/M with that thing. Good times!
Posted by: YLW400
lmao, thats too funny, and very considerate and nice of you!! lol Those are very awesome..I have looked at them before, and you got the truck to pull that thing!!

Yeah, its about time i used that truck to tow more than a measly little quad and me around. <insert Tim the Toolman Grunt here>
Posted by: seatec
BTW Eric,
here is a pic of rausch creek. i outlined the Peewee areas for you. Between the two Peewee tracks is a small covered area where the Proud parents can sit and observe their little heroes.
Posted by: seatec
Might help if i actually posted the pic.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
Thanks Seatec! that is awsome wait until you see the little dudes in action you will lyao! BTW I am so many nationalities I lost count all I know is I am an American! I am told I am mostly Irish and Italalian that would explain the hight deficit.
It does not look good for riding this weekend mother nature is back in action again. The eastern shore is supposed to get the worst of it. The RV show sounds like a good idea I could find many ways to spend more money there. If you are serious about buying now is the time of year to do it, plus interest rates are only going to go up.
Posted by: YLW400
Doesn't look like I am going to be riding this Saturday, I am going to East Coast ATV to get my a-arms rebuilt.....Sunday might be a go though.........
Posted by: Honda5
Well I thought we were being very thoughtful in offering a free place to stay under the awning. But Seatec, I think you should go buy the Toybox! The way we feel is that you should live life to its fullest and you can't take the money with you when your gone. Love our camper! Also you can write the camper off on your taxes as a second home. This is true!! Let us know how the show goes and if you bought anything!
Posted by: seatec
Hey, i am just joking Dave. i thought it was a nice gesture. I will keep you informed on my RV endeavours.
Posted by: YLW400
I was perfectly happy sleeping under an awning!! lol That way noone needs to hear me snore! lol
Posted by: Honda5
Well JC you are more than welcome to stay with us. Seatec-we know you are just kidding but go buy that Toybox!!! We can sleep a total of 6 in our camper and that's not counting the floor. When are we going to Rausch Creek????
Posted by: YLW400
I'll be going with whomever has the DVD palyer and PS2 lmao, I am only kidding guys, thanks alot for the offers!!! I do snore though
Posted by: Honda5
Well it did come with a DVD and a 27" TV. Sorry but we only have a PS1 that could be hooked up. I guess you will have to stay with Seatec!!! lol
Posted by: YLW400
It sounds that way You all getting any snow over there?
Posted by: Honda5
Just flurries off and on over here. Went to Milford, DE after work and there were some heavy flurries down there but nothing on the ground. I know it was snowing early this afternoon down at OC but I don't think it amounted to much. I think the storm is going out to sea. I hope so, I want spring to get here so we can ride. I'm sick of the cold. Becky
Posted by: YLW400
Yea, we are only getting some flurries here too. I wish it would either snow it's butt off, or turn about 80 degrees. I hate the weather like this. I was down at Georgetown earlier this afternoon, and it was putting it down pretty good.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
I am open to go to Rausch any weekend except Easter. I am excited to get my boys up there. Lets try to get a date set up so we can all make a great day of it as soon as everyone can.
Who all is interested in going?
Eric
Posted by: seatec
I am game for Rausch but probably notthis weekend. J.C. No ps2 here. its Xbox all the way!!! XBox live Rox.
are we watching two wheel tuesday on speed?
BTW, you bring the DvD player and i have the DvD's. I got about 250 DVD's. i know i know. thats weird but i just gotta have some movies.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
omg I finnaly outdid you seatec I have over 450 dvd's
Posted by: seatec
no kidding. you got me big time. lol i bow before the DvD master.
Posted by: kellam
I want to ride as soon as possible. Just let me know where and how to get there. Does any one live near Anne Arundel county? I would rather meet with someone so i dont get lost on the way.
Posted by: seatec
Well, now the weather forecast is saying that we have 40%chance of rain on saturday and mid 50's weather.
Interresting
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
Kellam--- no worries about you getting to where you need to go to hook up, between mapquest and cell phones I think you will be ok.
Seatec-- it is funny when I go into some of these mom and pop video rental stores and I have more DVD's then they do. I have all of the good box sets too. My wife is a movie junkie I have my Saprano's Band of brothers, Gladiator and American pie movies and thats good for me she gets the rest for the kids and her.
I am looking for a set of stock front 400ex shocks and a rear Raptor shock... keep your eyes open for me.
Eric
Posted by: seatec
Hehe, you should ask them to sub rent the movies and you will get a commission.
I have some of the boxes too like Band OF Bro's and The Shield. We are also a little Sci-Fi so we have all Babylon 5 seasons except the last one cause its not out yet. Lotsa John Wayne and Clint. I also got some Ah-Nold of course.You will have to come over someday and check it out. i have been meanig to catalog them and dump it in a database and publish it on-line for my firends to see cause they always come over and borrow Movies.
I will keep an eye out for you but i suggest you check ebay and I see that stuff there quite often.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
dude I found some good deals on here I might have a set of fronts and I found a set of hypers w/r2's for 600 might not be able to let them slip I sent the guy a pm lets see what happens.
now I need a rear Raptor shock look out ebay here I come
Posted by: seatec
Sounds good. lets hope the dude will clen out his pm box. hehe.
Good luck on ebay. I dont know how familiar you are with ebay amd don't want to patronize you but be carefull and always check their feedback.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
ebay sucks I have never bought anything on there before but I know many people who have with good luck. I might not need to use them though
Posted by: kwatts400
I got a pair of 400ex shocks off of ebay for my 250r for $50. Pretty good deal I think. Is anyone going to motorama, I'll be there w/ a few friends on Sat.
Posted by: seatec
I dont know yet. I am torn between riding/motorama and RV SHow. have to see what the weather does for this weekend.
-Anthony
Posted by: Honda5
Well we have the DVD but no DVD's for it. So make sure when we meet up and we have the camper with us for you guys to bring some. We can't ride this weekend. Let us know when everyone wants to go to Rausch Creek to ride-we want to go too!
Eric-I will have Dave keep an eye out for what you need. I know he has bought alot off ebay and hasn't had any problems.
I'm ready for the warm weather to come on. I'm tired of this cold weather and rain/snow.
~Becky~
Posted by: cletusEX
I think I might have to join you all if you set up a Rausch ride. My buddies and I have been talking about going up there and it sounds like a good bunch of guys.
Posted by: seatec
the more the better cletus. we are gathering us a nice group of riders here.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
the more the merrier Cletus
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
50% chance of rain on Sat. doesn't say morn day or eve. If it is eve then it is perfect. It can wash that dirt that turned into cement off of my quad. If it is day rain then I am goin to the RV show to see what it feels like to be D&B in that new rolling castle.
Eric
still looking for a rear Raptor shock w/remote rezzi
Posted by: seatec
Speaking of washing dirt of my quad. I couldnt stand the dirt on my quad and just had to get the worst of of it Tuesday evening and i about froze my nuts off doing it. when i was done i had little icecicles hangin from my handlbar. God i am so stupid sometimes its amazing i dont forget to breathe.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
breath damn it breath!!!!
hey that crap turned into rock hard cement by the time I got home
on Sat. I broke out the preasure washer for that stuff.
I can't ride Sun I have a side job I am doing I have to pay for my new goodies!!
Posted by: YLW400
I know, I tried to get some of that crap off of mine the other night, and it was a mess....lol
Posted by: seatec
Yeah, and i dont even have a pressure washer.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
hey I got my craptor rear shock!
I still need front 400ex shocks
wait till you guys see what I am doing! I will be the laghing stock of the next ride.
Kellam what is the deal with the place off I95 under the BGE lines?
is it legal because it looks real fun???
Posted by: kellam
so when should i look to see if you all are riding this weekend
Posted by: kellam
that place is awesome. its not exactly legal but theres alot of people that ride there and no one really gets picked on. ive been there around 9 times and never saw one cop. even when we were on the shoulder of 95. wheres forest hill?
Posted by: seatec
So, what are you doing with your quaD? BTW. i just got my +2 +1 LSR Steering stem in . looks pretty good. cant wait to put in on.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
Seatec...
Now if I let you in on this would't it ruin the surprise????? Besides I think you would rather wait so you can lyao at me when you see it.
Kellam
forest hill is in Harford Co. N.W. of Bel Air
check this thread reguarly! one of us is bound to get something going soon. I think everyone is waiting to see what the weather does. Unfortunately I doubt if I will be out this weekend because I am on call for work and will be working on Sunday.
Eric
Posted by: Honda5
Seatec-I think I know what Eric is doing. He is using the raptor rear shock and the 400 EX shocks on his 250 X, the front end of a 400 fits the frame of a 250X. I did that to my old 250X. Great idea! Works pretty good.
Eric & Seatec-hope you go to the RV show this weekend and hope you buy your rolling castle. Get the toy box Seatec-you can leave it at our house. We have enough room! JC you are still welcomed to stay under the awning of ours.
Posted by: seatec
kellam. YLW might ride this weekend. he is die hard. ok Eric. i wont ask what you are Frankensteinng together in you garage. this oughta be good
Posted by: seatec
Hey Becky? Dave? I dont even know where you guys live. If it is close enough i might take you up on your offer. ill would make it right of course.
Posted by: Honda5
Seatec-we are 45 minutes from the Bay Bridge. Right on up 301. You will find out when you come over to ride when the weather clears up and it gets warmer. becky
Posted by: YLW400
Hey, I'll stay whereever I am welcome!!! lol But again, I am warning you!!! I snore!!!
Posted by: seatec
Wow, you guys are really generous. cant wait to come over and ride at your place.
Posted by: YLW400
I know, and they are going to have a bar-be-que too!!! lol Can we do it tomorrow???? lol
Posted by: seatec
If you tell me they gonna have Johnsonvile brats on the BBQ i will drive over right now and wait.
Posted by: YLW400
Oh, Johnsonvilles............My mom used to do those in beer on the stove......man were they good!!!!! If we grilled them, i could just drink beer to make it the same
Posted by: seatec
You got it amigo! I throw those bad boys n the grill almost every sunday. i always havw two neghbors on my door step every sunday. hehe
Posted by: YLW400
Those things rock...You ever had the cheesy brots?? THose are good as well!My mom is from Wisconsin, I think that is where they are made at if I am not mistaken..
Posted by: seatec
Hey, the cheesy ones are dangerous. the cheese squirts out and its really hot. good times, man
Posted by: YLW400
cheese makes you squeal
Posted by: seatec
YLW you are a sick individual
Posted by: YLW400
Thank you
Posted by: seatec
so are you riding this weekend? im hoping to get some good weather so i can put the stem in.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
Well honda5 knows what is goin on with the old x machine
I picked up a Raptor rear shock for $125 bucks and it bolts right on.
I bought a front shock relocator kit for the front and I am bidding on some shocks now.
This is a temporary fix for my jumping woes... unitl I get a better ride. I am going to look at an '01 Raptor tommorrow. I really don't want to buy it but it is loaded w/aftermarket goodies and he only wants 2grand because he is broke and needs fast cash. I have heard real bad horror stories about the '01 so I am not sure. I really want an EX or Z but for 2 grand I could part the thing out and get way more than that out of it?
Brats rule who's cookin
Posted by: YLW400
I am not sure Seatec...I am going to East Caost ATV to get my a-arms rebuilt, I guess I'll have to see what happens when I get home Saturday from there...
Eric, I have heard stories about the 01's as well, jus be careful man... For the right price my POS might be for sale! ..lol
Posted by: seatec
C'mon J.C. you are loaded. get a TRX or YFZ and sell your 400 to Eric.
Posted by: YLW400
loaded my butt, that thing has to go before I get either one of those...lol
Posted by: seatec
WHy choose. get them both!!!
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
dude now thats an idea
buy a yfz for mx
buy an "R" for xc
my roadmap has been laid out before me
Posted by: kellam
all right fellas ill check in tommorow to see whats goin on this weekend. i would get the raptor. sounds like a deal
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
here is the weather for Easton Easton waether
Don't look good for Saturday
I'll be out next weekend I'll be working on the X machine and going to RV show ( I just got to know what it feels like to be rich and famous like D&B) maybey I'll run into Seatec buying his TOYBOX. Hope everyone has a good weekend
Cya
Eric
Posted by: seatec
Hey Eric,
Yeah we might run into each other there. It's not like you can miss me or anything. Ill be the one yelling at the Sales person for being a total mornone to even dare to ask a price that high.
I just love dealing with sales people. It's like a little war.
Anyway, ill be wrenching to tmorrow and put my Steering stem in and new SS brake lines. THat oughta be interresting since i never ever bled a brake line before. i think i might pick up one of those automotive blleders from Pep Boys or something. Is there a style that is peferred or are they all the same?
Posted by: Honda5
As soon as the weather clears and our track dries up from all the snow and rain. We will let you guys know when to come over to ride. It's not a big track but it closely resembles the beginner track at Easton with a few doubles and whoop section. I also have a small woods trail to ride. This is fun for a one day ride. Bring the brats, wife, kids and quads!
Posted by: Honda5
Seatec- it's real easy to bleed the brakes. Just take your time, and go slow and just do one side at a time by pumping the oil thru. Don't let the ressy go low. You shouldn't have a problem
Posted by: seatec
I was wondering how i would do a doubel brake line bleed. Its not the split kind but a dual line right from the banjo bolt. Just keep one side closed on the caliper an the other open? and the reverse?
Anthony
PS i bet it will be fun hanging out at your place with the guys.
You guys are really close to Budds Creek right? are you going to race MX or HS there?
Posted by: Delaware152
YLW400.. I am going to Seaford on Sunday. It is supposed to be nice and the track was is good shape last weekend so this week should be even better. You better ride b/c 4 laps at Budd's Creek next weekend could be ugly. Whose are you meeting up to East Coast b/c I figured all of them would be at Motorama.
Posted by: YLW400
If i can get up there Saturday and get it home at a decent hour..and put it all back together again, I Will be there Sunday. I am meeting with Matt, he said between 1:30 and 2..I have to call today and confirm with him though.
Are any of you guys coming to Budds next weekend for the mX race??
Seatec, if I were you I Would buy one of those tools, I have had nothing but problems with bleeding brake lines...lol Maybe I just suck at it..lol
Posted by: seatec
I am on the fence about going to the MX event at Budds Creek. I will probably come to watch at least to get some idea how it works. Never done the MX. I probably wont even be able to do 4 laps on that track anyway. Ill be "that guy" who looks like a fool , head jerking back and forth and almost falling of his bike from exhaustion and all.
I'll definately get one of those bleeder tools to make the job easier for me. and if i mess it up ill just use engine braking and rear brake to slow down. 
Posted by: YLW400
I don't think you would be "that guy"...lol You will see some of "those guys" there though...lol You oughta at least come out and check it out!
You have a Jake brake on that thing, right?..lol
Posted by: kwatts400
Hey Honda5, you said you are 45 mins. up 301 from the bay bridge. Sounds like you are pretty close to Galena or Millington? My g/f lives right outside of Galena. I work outside of Galena as well, at my families restaurant. Next time there is a ride at Easton (schedule permitting) I plan on crashing at her place so that I can make the ride. This weekends out for me though, I will be at motorama all day on Sat.
Posted by: Delaware152
Seatec...Try opening both bleeders and let them gravity feed. Just make sure you keep the master cylinder full or so it doesn't get air. When fluid starts running out the bleeders then bleed each side. This works for me. Hope this helps. Let me know if any questions.

Thanx for the tip. thats wat i will do.
Posted by: Ericthered rdr
Seatec... definately gravity bleed the brakes first! just keep the rezzy full then beed left sie first then right side. If you have any probs I am only 5 mins away. You know the number.
What is motoramma all about I have never heard of it? My friend at work mentioned he was going. It must only be for cool people because I have no idea.
Delaware152.... I saw you riding at Seaford last Sat but didn't get to meet you. You are a damn good rider. Mabey after I get done growing up trying to be rich and famous like Dave and Becky I will be able to ride like you!!!
Posted by: seatec
THanx for the offer Eric, i will definately take you up the offer if i need it.
Posted by: kwatts400
I've heard it is racing all weekend long. Everything from bikes to quads to karts. There should be a lot of venders too.
Posted by: Delaware152
Ericthered Rdr...Thanks. I don't know about being good but I am definately not rich or famous. lol. Just many years of riding.

Ahhh, false modesty. J/K Delaware152

Delaware152 rides?
Posted by: Delaware152
The way this year is going I am doing more mechanicing than riding. The motor has been dropped 3 times between the two bikes. My wrenching skills are improving. lol
Posted by: seatec
Whats the problem wiht your motors? You know that black luiquid that some people put in their motors? You really cant replace that with tap water you know. J/K
Posted by: YLW400
Thats true Delaware...Since your wrenching skills are going up, could you give me riding lessons, and be my mechanic??
Posted by: YLW400
Cannondales require oil?
Posted by: Delaware152
Maybe that's been my problem. I was trying to save a little weight
Posted by: seatec
Man, i cant wait to try the YFZ with the longer steering stem. I hope the SS lines make the brakes a little better too. One of the things that could be a tad better IMHO.
Posted by: YLW400
Just do like Brady, and only use 3 lug nuts on each wheel..lmao
Did you get them bled Seatec?
Posted by: seatec
Dude, i am at work dreaming about wrenching on the quad right now. I also have to wait for good weather before i can wrench. some of us dont have the luxury of a Garage you know. See how poor i am.
When i had the bike i used to walk it down these really steep steps just to be able to wrench on them in the basement. It's amazing i hadnt killed myself doing it. Just to indicate how steep these steps where. We had to winch the bike out of the basement. thats how steep it is. Crazy stuff.
Posted by: Delaware152
The things you will go through in order to ride. lol
