Nice pics 230fanatic! All I did was copy and paste what you sent me in the email.

Looks like a nice riding spot. I noticed your email said something about the Packers, you from 'sconsin?

No I'm from northeast PA, but I do like the packers only not as much now. Betcha know why. Ya it is a nice riding spot its also pretty close so we can just ride our quads to there. I liked the spot that you were jumping your quad at. Where is it? You gonna try that jump with your DVX.

Nice, I really like the vault wish I'd found it sooner. I didn't see any pics in your gallery but do you like hill climbing? Or do you like jumping more.

Oh gotcha! Yeah there's still rumors flying around that he's playing for us this year in MN.

The places I was jumping at was Tri-County ATV park in Faribault, MN. Its down south from the cities about an hour. Really nice place! The track in front of the park was initially private, but the state bought it so everyone could use it.

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't going to try it! Now I've got fully adjustable shocks all the way around and nerf-bars that weren't designed by air-heads! I need to get it on the trails first though. I've only been able to ride it a couple times. Hopefully this weekend I'll get a chance.

I've got the main skid plate coming tomorrow, along with the black hand-guards, oil filter, and spark plug. That should hold me over until I build up some more $$$.

I should have pics in my gallery....but do you mean just hill climbing pics?

To be honest, I've never really tried a ton of hill-climbing. I wouldn't consider myself a super jumper either. I will say I'm a wicked fast, tight woods rider. I think you can see some of my helmet cam vids in the vault under the video section. And those are filmed from the top of my head so you lose the sense of speed.

Ya I meant hill climbing pics. I saw those videos of you driving thru the woods with the cam on your head and I was wondering what gear you were in when you were driving thru the woods and when you hit the jump. Also what was your top speed with your 230.
