I finally got my new bike last weekend. Thanks to Nielsens in Lake Villa for helping me to get thar oh so sweet CRF 450. I took it to Buffalo Range the next day to break it in and get some riding done. It is an awesome bike, one that gave me lots of confidence very quickly and doesn`t need too much mods for my riding. I`ll keep practicing in the next 2 weeks before entering my first race.

I am keeping the 2001 KX 125 for my son Taao (15), and for the Vintage races at Byron :)

Happy New Year!
Went practice at Waterman Indoor Racing yeasterday. I took a 2 hours lesson with Brad Jerominski of club57mx.com and felt tired but very good about the riding. Lots of improvement needed still, but lots done too.
It`s fun riding the 2-stroke, but I can`t wait starting to zork on the 4-stroke.
