Have you guys ever gone to Carnegie in livermore. It is a nice hilly place to ride, couple of tracks. that is where i go since i live in fremont, it is about 1/2 hr from my house. for all the new riders to dirt i have a few pic's for you, the things not to do kind of photos. I went down i hill i was not familiar with and oh lord, did i reget it, the quad rolled over me and down the hill, i was fine, plastic all scratched, new handlebars, and a little stitch work to the plastic. I broke all the rules that day.
1) riding alone
2) in a place not familiar with
3) in the expert, not recomended for atv section(i know, i knw)
4) going down a hill i have not gone up yet
I want to put a plaque next to my stitches on my quad to remind me of that day and all of the mistakes i made. I was very lucky i was not hurt.
here are the pic's, you may have to copy the link and paste it to your browser to view, i am still learning.
