    I got out last week with a friend and rode a new spot and tested the helmet cam a bit. Day one was a bit cold and rainy, but day 2 cleared up and was a blast. I'll be cutting the video of day two together today. It's at a different location called Dove Springs (near Jawbone).

    Thanks for the share. I'm looking to get back into dirt bikes again. I had a Honda 90 and a Bultaco 250 in the 1970's.

    there wasn't much that was jumpable. A few decent leaps for better riders, but there were also abandoned mine shafts all over so you had to look out when you went over a pile of dirt.

    Day 2 had us in different terrain. I'm trying to cut the video, but I have over 30 minutes and I'm not uploading that to youtube. It took hours to do the last one. I'll prob cut this one and put it on a disc.

    Nice clips. I ride off road on an XR650R. It would be perfect in that terrain. Instead, I ride on 100 acres of land in Central NY where I have a 1.3 mile loop. For me, riding dirt is #1. The street is #2.

    Good stuff Reg. Desert/Trail/Street riding will be it for me once I can hold handle bars again. No more "Big Air" or Motocross for me...
    I was practicing for the Glen Helen Grand Prix this weekend and I don't think I'll be racing/riding any time soon. 25+ years of riding, 12 years of racing without a serious injury and my luck finally ran out...:frown:

    Cool Reg, been thinking of maybe getting a KTM, but dirt riding in Delaware is slim so not sure yet.
