nsaqam Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Half, I just had to get a bike after attending the '04 and '05 World Championship at Spirit Mtn. I even helped set up some sections for the '05 event. I live in Hermantown just outside of Duluth. I bought my 7 year old daughter a Gas Gas TXT50 last fall but some loser stole it! I recently traded my KTM 250 for a Gas Gas TXT321 and I've ridden it some but am very anxious to get out and see how badly I suck. If you live nearby I will be riding my land here alot and would like to get together. I'm a newbie here too. If you see someone riding a blue GG TXT50 let me know, they're rare as hens teeth around here as you know. Email me. umpierre1@hotmail.com Those World class riders are SICK!!!!
