Time to feel like a kid at 48 lol. Some of my best memories were riding dirtbikes with friends and camping on weekends. I picked it up last Friday and can’t wait to start riding in the Fall.

That should be a hoot, enjoy!
Nice. Just be careful. You don’t recover like you used to when you were younger.
Nice.
Man, I've sure had the itch to swing a leg over another one lately... Been watching a LOT of old racing footage.
Kinda hard to justify, though, considering the nearest place to ride (nothing but flat/boring locally) is well over an hour away... Just not really a popular activity around here.
Y'all enjoy!
Who controls John Gill?
Awesome, go for it and have fun! You aren't dead yet! LOL
Enjoy it's always good to keep the kid in you.
I’m 48 also and rode a few times over the summer. I have an 8 year old nephew that just learned to ride and shift gears. My brother picked up a couple old Honda’s. One of them is like a 1974 xr75 Jeff Ward replica. Pretty cool. It has a pipe and some other mods, and beats the crap out of the newer xr80’s. We also have a mid to late 80’s xr80. Perfect bikes for him to learn on, although our family has owned a 1980 CR80 since 1989. It was leaning against a tree for the last 5 years and we got it running and restored it. That thing is a ripper and so much fun to ride. Awesome to see my nephew ride it. I am a smaller guy at 5’6” so I can move pretty good on it myself. My brother still has his old race bike from back in the day. A 1993 Honda CR250 McGrath replica. Fun to get on the old two strokes and ripppp! Although I don’t really do jumps anymore. Don’t need to get hurt.
My brother has 20 acres that is pretty flat and he built a little SX track so I have a good place to ride. Not to mention he has a pond stocked with bass. So the best of both worlds all in one place!
Love to snowmobile when when we have snow also. Way to many toys, but that’s how life should be right!
