I think you summed it up. I can't keep quads out of my head either. I think about riding & racing all the time. At home, at work, while I sleep(oh wait that's called a dream).
My wife harasses me about how much money I spend on atv's, gear, parts, oil,filters, etc., etc., etc. She rides "some", but I don't think she understands the true value of it. You can't put a dollar amount on the exileration and release that you get from riding. It allows me to step away from all the b.s. of every day life and just let it all hang out.
Thunderpower is right, people that don't ride; don't understand what it means to those of us that do. You just can't explain what it feels like to rip across a field at 70+mph, or what it feels like to clear a 65 footer on a 400lb. machine, or to shoot up a hill between some trees with your front wheels skiping of the ground. Or the ultimate; defeating that obstacle, whatever it may be, knowing the while it should but humanly impossible to do so. If you ride, you'll understand. If you don't you just won't get it.
What can else can I say?, "I live for this s**t!".[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

Why would anyone want to move here, unless it was Florence or Winchester bay? I told my mom that I was going to move to the East Coast, she asked me why and I said to race, she actually understands, so I guess I have the cool mom of the forum[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Too bad she won't help me get a quad[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

OregonMXracer:
Lots of people would give their left kidney to ride in Bend, Ore, with the HUGE East Fork Rock/Millican Flats ATV riding areas.
Be ye thankful, dude.
I consider myself blessed to be only 1 hour from the Tillamook State Forest (brown's camp) area, 4 hrs from Coos Bay (dunes) and 4.5 hrs from East Fork Rock.
Addicted? Naw, I'm possessed.
