Had some fun at St. Joe here in Missouri today. Very eventfull!


A bit after we got there, two guys were airlifted out. It was a quad dirtbike collision, high speeds were involved and they crossed paths. Thats the bad part about the flats in St. Joe, it gets so busy, theres to many people not paying attention. No deaths thankfully, just a compound fracture in the arm, and a collasped lung. Thats still bad, but nobody died.

Then a little while after that, we came back to the trailer to the park rangers, and an ambulance. Turns out the guy next to us had a spill going up a hill on his dirtbike, ended up rolling backwards and he grabed the wrong part to balance himself............. ended up losing his middle finger to the rear sproket and chain! His finger stayed in the glove when he pulled his hand out :eek:



On a lighter side, had a lot of fun. Weather was great!

I just picked this 350x up last week from RichinMO. Heres a pic with the new ITP's I just put on.

I really like the bike, its a torque monster! Wheelies across the flat in the top of 5th gear is no sweat!

Heres a couple more random pics.

Your good,

What I did was set up a free acount at www.photobucket.com

After you download your pics there, you copy the IMG Code under the pic in your album, and paste it straight to the thread.

Good luck

Thanks Bro.

Looks like you guys had a blast out there.

It's great to live close to somewhere to ride like that.

Hey Eric, looks like the X is standing tall at St. Joe! Those tires are bad-ass too! Do they give you a rougher ride? That's too bad about those people getting hurt. In all the times I have been there, I've never seen anybody get evac'd but I knew it had to happen with all the crazies running around the flats.

Hey Rich,

I love the Holeshots. Those are an all around good tire. The ride is smooth, they give you that extra confidence the OEM's couldnt provide.

Ill be hitting St. Joe pretty much every weekend unless something comes up, let me know if your going to be there. :beer


Thanks TravEX. Its a sweet ride! I recomend any trail rider out there with out one to pick one up! :w00t:
