    About me....

    Well I decided because I hang out in this area of the site I would just put a little profile about myself up so you know who Iam.

    I'm Wellyman or Dan,
    Ride a 2003 Honda CRF230F backed by my work Atomic Bike Wreckers.
    I'm based on the shore in dorkland and do alot of riding at Woodhill and all around the north island. I have raced GNCC for 2 years but took a year off this year because of family things. You can normally see me at most north island trail rides racing around on my CRF230 #588 as I ride when possible.
    I work part time at Atomic Bike Wreckers on saturday mornings with Spencer and sometimes his son Daniel aswell.

    My sponsorship deal with the shop started a while after I joined the shop, and it has helped me along and Spencer has been great to deal with about everything( thanks alot mate). I couldn't also to forget to mention Rodger down at Action Bike Wreckers who owns both the shops and also is a great help.

    Also I would like to thank:

    Blue Wing Honda for the shiny new bike they gave me a few years ago, Northern Accerories for the free gear that came with the bike, My family,Dave (Firefight) for all the great advice , cheers bud.,White Trash (the biggest sh*t talker),Riff Raff -for all the support and for the photos that you took on that day at Ardmore.

    Thanks and see ya out on the trails!
    Dan

    nice to meet you, i used to love motox bikes (ktm sx125 the last) but the rush at 200 + km/h on a sportsbike can't be beaten i reckon.
    Speed washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life. Ramblings of an adrenalin junkie

    joking man. the KTM bikes are nice but you can't beat a japper! the repair bils are cheaper (although I ride a Honda so you don't have to repair them)

    And you ride an overbored XR200

    They are crap.

    Oh, they're alright if you like that good brakes, good suspension, good engine type thing - Don't like the seat though.

    Harden up and get a 1980 XR200, put on some old dirt leathers and go VMX'ing

    eh hem! I don't ride a gutless farm bike! the CRF range have way better components then the old XR farm and slow trailriding bikes. Get a CRF man! they rock.

    I bet my 4-st has more guts than your 2-st.

    I could cover a workbench with the guts from mine.
    Your's would only take up a small corner.

    Any pre '80 CRF's on trademe?

    An alloy swingarm from a PE or RM is the next step for the seXR (apart from some dyno time) and then the 6-speed.

    I could get some crf rad shrouds and put them on but that would look silly on an aircooled bike.

    shut up an 86 XR200 would piss all over your 230 so will my XR250 and yes I rode a 230 so I know what im talking about and XR's are not farm bikes
    just cause some one has a cr125 for a farm bike doesn't mean it is one .XRB's are farm bikes tho....

    Dude!!!!

    when was the last time you rode a Modern F stroke dirt bike???

    cause to be honest, In a nice way, a new bike will always shit all over a old bike anyday of the week.

    just it seems all the GOOD riders ride old bikes, And there are quite a few AVERAGE riders on new bikes.
