Good to meet up with a few of you tonight. It's really hard recognizing KB'ers without numbers, but I do my best..... Some nice riding tonight, it's always entertaining.... :yes:

Nice shots, loved the KX flying overhead. Just curious did 809 (first shot) survive the tank slap.

it is about time #144 stepped up to a bigger bike. a 125 is just too small........

It might be a little "cheesy" (no offence Cheese..:dodge: ) but I think it sums up the atmosphere at Ardmore very well... Nice big grin says it all......

Yeah, nicely controlled slide, although if I remember correctly, the following jump was approached somewhat sideways. It's possible that a small amount of "wee" was expressed...........

Dunno what Drew reckons, but my read is that'll be tough to get rid of, unless you can use an external flash & sync to 1/500 then get high enough iso to keep the quality up, because it looks like your around 1/250 to me.

P.S. Damn nice work tracking.

You took a shot of a lowly enduro bike:woohoo:

Loved Ardmore when i had the YZ250F's but the WR's not so good on the flat landings. Trying to convince the other half I NEED a 250 smoker as track bike:Punk:

I have yet to meet a bike I didn't like in some way .......

I know what you mean with the flat landings, my KDX floats like a butterfly, lands like a bowl of porridge, but the trail /MX compromise is good..... I can see an MXer (as well) in my future.....

Am using an old external flash, 1/320. Will save up for a proper Canon EX flash so I can go faster..........

Thanks for the nice comments guys.....
