tjay belt
I started riding on a 50 with fat tires when i was 8 or so. Then graduated to a yz 80 a few years later. A few years later, in junior high, my dad purchased an xr 250. He let me ride it, and I never got off it, except to goto college, and occasional crashes ( 1 broken arm and ankle later, i still loved riding).
During college, my younger brothers stole it from me. One of them still has it in his garage to this day. I got to ride it a couple years ago, and gave my two daughters rides on it while visiting them.
Just yesterday, a few months before my 35th birthday, I purchased a 1982 xr 500. I can´t wait to get back into riding. It´s been too long.
