History-
Grew up in a small ghetto town,ALWAYS wanted a go cart,something to ride.Built our own ghetto rigged go carts and mini bikes out of frames and engines found in the trash...always wanted more. Moved to the country,rode a bunch of quads and wanted a quad...too expensive and too big. Borrowed a friends a 91' Honda z50 for my birthday(gift). I took off on it like i have been riding for years,thats when i realized what i had.
I took my stock ttr90 and entered a supercross race at Winchester speedpark(my first time seeing a track) and placed second,following the leader the entire race. Parents said if i was going to continue race,i would need to get straight A's in school...3 terms later,i did it.Raced my first race on a BEAT UP kx60,placed well. I turned 12,age for 65's is 11...so i sold it for a Yz85.I took a "little tumble" at southwick,my first race in on it.I broke my wrist in 4 spots,and after a quick bite to eat at mcdonalds rushed to the hospital...I broke my wrist on hundreths of a millimeter from my growth plates,and it is possible that i did break the growth plate and its not showing up ...12 weeks later im back on the bike,95% movement in my wrist,turns out i didnt break my growth plate.I did recieve a fair warning though,if that wrist ever gets broken again,theres a great possibility ill never race a bike again,well,not be able to turn it more then 1/4 throttle anyways...
So,im back,with a vengence,first race back i khole and pull an 18th,then a 15th,then an 11th,get a few holeshots...
I end my 2004 season with a few top ten finishes,and some holeshots.
For 2005 i race 85B,i do pretty good there,nothin too spectaculur so far.I have gotten a few top 10's in jr.mini though.And ive been placing alot of top10's in d34.
Thats all for now really

Good topic... Ok about me, I am 16 with a licence but I don't have a truck yet. I like dirtbikes and motocross more than just about anything. I don't get to ride to much but when I go I ride all day. I've been riding for like 2 years, I started riding on a TTr250 only got to ride it like 5-6 times throughou the year. When I got my new bike Yz250f my dad bought a Raptor 660 so we started going alot then he flipped that and has a grizzly660 now but he never rides anymore. So that leaves me and my mom to go riding and she doesn't ride so you can see how much I get to ride. I do ride with my freinds as much as possible but its tough for me to get a ride everytime. I uhhhh... I used to skateboard and I was MUCH better at skateboarding than about anything else I've ever done but I've pretty much gotten out of it. Ok now for some pics...
Me washing my bike at Hardrock, thats me leaning over [ ]
Me riding up to the veiwing hill at Cullies
Me chucking some mud at a local clay pit
My front tire, after the chucking mud incident
And then my rear, it looks like a racing slick. Yeah I know I need a new tire.
Then me hitting the big jump at Cullies
Now for the turn secuence I made...
I just got all of my pics from Movie editor thats why there is no good ones.
Heres me and my nephew from our Pennsacola trip movie.
And my full body I know I'm very beautiful
Lol sorry for such the bad shots only movie with me in it at the time was our little road trip and I only make limited appearances.

Good topic!
Here's a little about me, and my experiences with motocross/dirt bikes:
Name: Jake
Nickname(s): KTMRoost and Free Willy (long story... only some know about that one... )
Current Bike: 2004 KTM 125SX
Age: 16
Current Class: 125C
Past Experiences: When I was little, around 6 or 7, my parents bought me a bike, XR70. At first, I didn't really like it, and it just sat in our garage collecting dust for YEARS! When I turned 12 or so, my friend got me to go on a trail ride with him and his family, and I had to bring my bike with. From that point on, I was addicted to dirtbikes, and did not want to stop riding one! So, I then told my mom that my bike was too small and I needed a bigger one, so, we went out and bought a bigger one. An XR100R. I wanted to get the idea down of a clutch before I hopped on anything too dangerous. I rode that for about 4 months, then decided that, that was now too small as well, so I needed an even bigger one! I told my mom mom that I wanted to get a motocross bike... A LOUD ONE, as I refered to it back then. So, after some research and some major begging of my mom, I ended up getting a 2004 CR85R Expert. I rode that for just over a year, and went around to the local tracks and got familiar with them. I was not allowed to race though, but my mom said that if I got good enough on it and rode it for at least 1 year, then I would be allowed to do a few races, 2 or 3 a year. By that time, I would turn 15 and would be one of the older people in that class, so I decided to get a years experience in the bigger class, the 125 class. So, I went out and bought a 2004 KTM 125SX from our neighbor, it was practically new, it only had 6 hours on it! So, I got that in the Fall of 2003, practiced on that for a month, then had to put it away for the winter. I took it out in the Spring time and entered my first race a few months later, and here I am now with 1 season under my belt, as well as some injuries... lol.
Here are some pictures of me, and some riding pictures.
And just for the heck of it, here's a picture of my bike now...

sorry, no pics, but about me:
NAME: Marco yaylaian
BORN September 7th 1990
Age: 15
RIDING FOR 3 Years
BIKES: 2002 ttr 125 and 2003 cr 85 expert
HOW I GOT STARTED: Well when i was little i always love dirtbikes but i never had money and neather did my parents to get me one. So in 5th grade my 10 or 11 b day my parents got me a mini bike i rode that a little bit but got really boring becuse it was slow and i couldnt hit jumps. So after 2 years of resaerching and begging and trying to get some money my dad and mom gave in and got me a ttr 125. I rode that alot and got use to it. But i knew my true passion was racing i always loved racing my pals so i need to take it up. So I saved up about 400 bucks and sold my ttr 125 to a friend and spent the dirtbike money and the money i saved for a my cusen 2003 cr 85 expert. It was in perfect condtion. I rode that to get use to the power and this year im finally racing.

Name: Dexter
Nickname(s): Dex, Big D, DC..
Current Bike: 2005 YZ250F and 2004 YZ125
Riding for: 10 years
Age: 17
Current Class: 125 B
Past Experiences: Well lets see... when I was 5 I almost died from a virus that attacked my liver. Luckily the doctors caught it in time and I survived after being in the hospital for 2 weeks and living on milk shakes. When I was about 7 my uncle gave me a hand-me-down PW80. I rode that until I was almost 10 and then my dad bought me a brand new 1999 XR100. I really started getting into dirtbikes then and a couple years later at the age of 12 I got a brand new 2001 YZ80. After a year or two riding that I entered my first race in May of 2003 with my best friend Shawn. He raced 125D on a 98 RM125 and I raced 80D on my bike (I was to big for it, almost 5'10"). He finished in 4th and I crashed on the last lap while in 3rd and finished 5th out of 20 riders. At the end of 2003 I got my 2004 YZ125. The following spring I began racing on a regular basis in the 125C class. I started out at the back of the pack but towards the middle of the season I was finishing top 10. Eventually at the end of the season I was winning more races than I was losing. In January of 2005 I got my YZ250F. Last spring I raced one 125C race and was bumped to 125B. I got smoked alot at the beginning but after alot of practice and getting used to the pace.. and practicing with my buddy Shane (he races pro) I got the hang of it and ended up winning a series in 125B and unlimited 16-24. Back in September my friends Shawn and Shane were in an accident resulting in the death of Shawn.. since his death I've been inspired to do my best and live life to the fullest. Next year I'm going to attempt making it to Lorretta's in 125B stock and mod. If I don't make it theirs always next year. And I guess most of you have seen my pictures so I won't post them lol

Name: Miles
D.O.B: 17th of October 1990
Residence: Australia, NSW
Riding:5-6years
Current race class: Junior Lites.
Racing: 3 years.
Past Bikes: 1998 Pw80, 2003 cr85, 1986 KX80, 2005 CR85 (moded), 2005 KTM 85sx BW (stock).
Current bike: 2006 KTM 125sx.
Bio: When i was little i always liked my Dad's road bike and so i started asking for one, but instead Dad got me a dirt bike thank God. I got that bike in 1998 and just did backyard riding and riding on drive ways and stuff, lol. I think it was maybe 1999 i tried out my first race and did not like it. I took my helmet off and rode in the pits for fun and got like banned. Hahha! Then i got my Cr85 and started racing that and did averagely well, it has a FMF fatty, FMG shorty, Tag T2 fat bars, renthal Sprockets, V-force rad valve and some other small things. I raced that for like 2 years or something and did ok on it.
Then i got my KTM 85sx BW, and i started to do really well, usually placing secong and third in the under 100cc class. the bike was bone stock because it was already a ripper of a bike. After a while i just didnt really wanna turn up to every club day they had, like the actual races because i thought they were a bit boring with the track being not much bigger than 4-5 acres. . So i just mainly came to practices they held and just had heeps of fun. I also got way better doing it too, got so much more confidence.
Ohyer, on my Cr85 i broke my arm. I did what KTMRoost (Jake) did but broke my arm. If it was off a Table-top, wasnt that big.
Now, i just gotta 2006 KTM 125sx and will be racing in the Junior Lites class doing motocross, maybe some stadium cross events and hopefully supercross. The only reason i dunno if i wanna do supercross is that our Supercross freaks all race at this track, and i dunno if i want to get my arse spanked. But wee'l see, time will tell...
Here's a pic of me on a bike called the "madass"
My bike.
Ill get some action shots later on when i go for a ride. I have NONE at the moment.
Thanks.

Name: Brendan Wales
Nickname: B, BW, Little B, B-Unit, B-Dizzle, Wales, Nineteen
Born: 02/11/92 (13)
Residence: Caledonia, Ontario, Canada
Bike: 2003 Yamaha TT-R125LE (SOLD)
Years Riding: 3
Biography: It all started when I was 8 years old. I was at a friend's birthday party when his older brother (12 years old at the time) brought out a Honda Z50 and started showing off to everyone. I was very curious, so I talked to him for a while about the bike. He told me what all the parts were called and what they did, then he offered me a ride on the back. Naturally I accepted, and I thought it was the most amazing thing ever. 3rd gear tapped, on the back of a Honda Z50 in my friends backyard. I was hooked. The minute I got home I started researching, making folders and talking to my parents about getting one. I looked in the newspaper every day and cut out sutible bikes. I must have cut out 100 ads in that week alone trying to convince my parents to let me buy one. I had my eye on a Honda XR70. A few months later I ended up actually riding the Z50, and I was absolutely addicted. I researched every day on the internet, made many folders with bike information, talked to my parents and visited the local Honda dealership whenever possible. After doing this persistently for a few years, my parents got me a 2003 Yamaha TT-R125LE out of nowhere in July 2003, along with a complete set of gear. They told me I was going to motocross camp in 3 days with my friend (The one who had the Z50, and an XR100 at the time). After having an amazing time and doing the same the next year, I broke my foot at a local track that I rode at almost weekly. To make a long story short, I ended up with two surgeries and very severe knee problems. It got to the point where I couldn't walk up a flight of stairs or even walk when I first got up in the morning. Although I also took up kart racing, I still rode all the way through until 2005 when I had to sell my bike. My knee injury just progressed to the point of 2 physiotherapy visits a week. I ended up with osgood slaughters disease, patella fomoral syndrome, patella tendonitis, tendonitis and arthritis. I am currently racing karts with Team Hurricane all across Ontario and working for the local kart racing track/dealership/shop as a junior apprenticing mechanic. I travel with the factory team across Canada and the USA and still being able to race locally. I am always travelling, next week I will be in Miami, Flordia. I am hoping to puchase a new 125 in the next year and slowly get back into motocross, because I love it more than life itself!
