Hi, based out near Bathurst. Back into riding after 15years off. Road an XL250 when I was a kid and raced motocross in the Clunker Class (older bikes with drumbrakes etc) on an '83 IT250 for a couple of seasons before buying a '91 CR250 to race with the big boys (I was pretty average). I had 5 or so XR500's during that time as well.

I really wish I had kept all my old dirtbikes, damn things are back in fashion  ;)

Anyway, hit 39 and have got some bikes again.

This is my '83 CX500. Might have to sell the old girl though.



A '96 XR600 with all the good gear, but needing some TLC.


and a '94 KTM400 that I picked up.


I swap back and forth between the white and black plastics.


Pretty keen on getting an older bike to do some Vintage Motocross on. Eyeing off an '85 CR250 but not sure if that year model is eligible?

Did a decent ride today with some guys and it is very much a case of the older I get the better I was  ;D
Still, had a great time and would like to do more.

Cheers
Rod
