    Shit it's clean. Wouldn't that cost a bundle bringing that in tho?

    Hey good on yah Ive been thinking along the same lines, I want to do something competitive
    but not full on MX, been thinking about VMX, will have to go check out some racing
    just to see whats involved.

    Or otherwise go the road racing, I would try postclassic or bucket racing.

    How many sleeps, till it arrives.

    Why would you ride that long and that gnarly stuff if you don't have to, Its what we do, we love it.

    What! and Crasher steered you onto a RM250?Give him an uppercut won't ya.

    Good onya for going VMX and the 125 route, you won't regret it.Cheap as chips to keep these bikes running as well.
    The vintage 125 classes have all been combined for this years series so there is someone for all abilities to race against.

    Heal well and I hope to catch up with you & Pete at the first round.

    Oh yeah i own the same model RM so don't show me up.
