I started riding desert and MX almost 43 years ago, when the jumps were natural and the woops got huge. Then the woops got small and the jumps got huge and it scared my mother so I started Hare Scrambles and Enduro. Now in my (late) 40's I'm back to Motocross and the jumps are bigger than ever!

49 years old. Started on a mini bike when I was 10. Got an Elsinore 125 when I was 14. Started racing desert when a family friend took me to a CRC enduro in 1977, Later switched to AMA D37 Desert series.
At 49 my riding has not changed much in the last 10 years, Looking forward to turning 50 and chasing points again...
Riding dirt all these years has taken its toll on my body, But it has kept me young at heart, I've also made some great friends.

17 Started riding quad at 12 and bought a 1994 kx250 for my first bike at 14.  Have since been through one thumper (wr400f which was a trail monster) and am now happily on a 05 yz250.

almost 40
took my first ride on a motorcycle at 2
first solo ride at 12
started riding regularly at 27 when I  got my first clapped out 1990 YZ250. I've been a fan and Moto tech junkie my whole overly protected by my mother life. And Have a collection of Dirt Bike and MXA mags at my folks that runs from the early 80s to 1992. And now boast a collection of MXA, Dirt Bike, and Dirt Rider rags that run from 95-current.
I was very serious about BMX, freestyle, freeride dirtjumping in my teens and early 20s so the transition was pretty easy for me.
I now have my youngest son involved in riding at 9.
The only 4stroke I own is a Suzuki DR650 dual sport.

I'm 22 and took my first solo ride around 8-10 I don't exactly remember so I've been on a bike pretty consistently for 12-14 years. Started racing about 7 years ago worked my way through the ranks pretty quick until I was a fast b classand had to quit racing bc of financial issues. Now I'm just a local b rider that never races lol
