Back in the saddle again…

Back in the saddle again. No, I’m not talking about the classic Aerosmith song though. As spring is upon us it’s time to get ready for another season of dirttrack racing. So, what have you been doing over the winter? Rebuilding for most of you I bet. For myself, I haven’t changed much for the 2009 season as far as equipment goes. I have however added a great group of new sponsors and kept some existing ones as well. Even though I live in the “frozen tundra” of Minnesota, all is not lost for racing. This winter I embarked into the world of ice racing. This was the type of racing I first participated in. when I started quad racing in the winter of 1990-91 and I was 15. Fast forward to now, it had been almost 15 years since I last competed on ice. Even though an ice racing setup is very similar to dirttrack, I wasn’t prepared for the surface that ice brings. The tracks were rutted with a lot of snow dust on top. I’ve ridden on whooped out terrain but ice has NO give compared to dirt. Not to mention it’s very cold. Regardless of my finishes I’m excited to hit the again next winter. I’ve learned a few tricks and know what to expect. But, ice racing aside, I’m ready for some great dirttrack racing myself. How about you?

I love that spring is in the air. We have laready geared up twice and headed to Moab, Utah. check out the trails on our site at atvtrailreviews.com. First ride was great, second ride was also great but very muddy. I love the mud!!!
However irreconcilable this difference may appear, it simply disappears in a semantic map. ,
