    i will be racing Bills bike for the first two races. then when i get the feel for it we will build one set up for me. just remember i have ben off of 3 wheelers for 10 years. i will be rusty. i will also be hitting my freestyle ramp with it next year. we will see what kind of tricks can be done on a 3 wheeler.

    here is a picture of me with my 4 wheeler at a freestyle show last month.

    Three wheeler guys probably have the biggest balls out of all the ATV/Motorcycle riders. You just have to be a little twisted to ride them, and you have to be a great rider to do so.

    The OTC guys are some of the best guys/gals you could ask for to ride with. You should have a blast!!!

    Just did a woods ride this weekend with half a dozen or so of them. It was a good time.

    A couple guys were doing some small jumps and hillclimbs. One was pretty crazy, in my opinion, but nobody knew he was going to do it and had a camera ready. Short hill, only about 15' tall, but the last 5 feet were vertical with an overhang. He just pointed the 250R and nailed it. Popped up on top and the trike landed flat, he kinda bailed off before it landed, but the trike's position would have probably allowed him to ride away.

    Quick shots of Brian jumping his 350X. No freestyle, just popping off a small jump. I wish I had my "good" camera with me, but the point&shoot was all I took.
