Do you ride your cannondale?
Scale of 1-10, 1=barely leave the trailer, 10=Beat the stew out of it,
How hard do you ride on average?

I ride at least once a week. 5 hours runtime. In the summer I'll get twice a week.
Average intensity: 6

What about you?

Well I drag race all the time in sand with paddles and I hit the rev limit in every gear so that's about as extreme as you can get, extreme as far as strain on the motor so I'll say a 9.

Awesome guys, how often?

intensity is hard to rate. When i'm ridin it usually feels like about 8. but the machine probably thinks its a 5-6. ahahaha

Great question deserves a well thought out answer.

In my mind I'm riding at a 10+ level of abuse to the quad, long hang times off jumps. Jumping buildings in a single leap.

Everyone that sees me is probably thinking 2.

I bought more quad than I needed.

It's not weather you win or lose, it how you LOOK while playing.

About an 8 here. Mine has never seen anything past third gear except for the short bursts through the fields. But those three gears that are used catch hell!!

Oh...Corndog,........that's not antifreeze. That's you wizzing on yourself with every gear change.

Hey corndog why must u down cannondale? The cannibal kicks *** and you know it. You must not maintain yourz well or something. Anyway,if you are lieing about the probs with your cannibal......your're not very good at it. Lay off cannondale dick-on-a-stick.
