Was this your first quad? No, I rode two strokes prior. Plus my wife has a Lakota built for MX. I am still a rookie by all means, but I have a background in bikes and about a year or so on quads. Why do I look that bad on my jumps? :eek:

It's not too bad. He has about 50 acres behind Kings Island. We have a REALLY small MX track with a horrible jump that goes straight up then drops down about five foot on the other side. It really tests your suspension. Back in the woods is lot of nice short trails. Plus an enormous uphill jump. And along the far side is a 1/4 mile straight strech between the corn field and woods. You can really fly (just watch for the deer!!!).
It's a nice place to ride in the summer when you just want to relax. There is a private lake, outhouse, large fire pit and a half-football field sized roofed area with picnic tables.
During the summer we go and camp, take the kids, ride and relax on the weekends we don't go to the MX track or other busy riding areas. It's a nice place to practice things, test new stuff and tune in new setups.

No, you didn't look bad, but I am thinking about getting a cdale, and it would be my first quad. I have ridden a lot, though.
