Title: From a 'Zilla to a Raptor 700!
Post by: Dobtown on March 17, 2010, 02:55:12 PM
Hey all,

Back in the day I rode ATC's and quads (80's and 90's). I had a 1987 Quadsport 230, a 1985 ATC 250R, a 1985 200X and a 1988 Quadracer 500. Been away from the sport for a while but recently sold my street bike and bought a 2007 GYTR Raptor. I can't wait to go riding if this winter ever ends! We have a decent riding area here in Nebraska called Headworks Park near Genoa. I grew up riding there. It is mostly sand and forest trails. There is a big jamboree there every year with a couple thousand riders. This looks like a good forum compared to most so thought I would join!

Welcome the the site!  Good choice.

I went to Genoa last year, not bad. Not sure I would go during Jamboree, it is unsafe when it is NOT busy :lol:

You in Neb then? WHereabouts?  :thumbs:

Yes, I'll be interested in when the rally is. I've always wanted to go to Little Sahara! Plus, now I've got a quad to fill the empty space in my toy hauler!

Yeah Dob, go to LS rally if you can. My favorite place to ride so far.

Oh, also, I am from far southeast Iowa, but my friend lives in Lincoln, so I head that way a few times a year if I can.

I Want to go to halsey sometime, and there is a little place near lincoln called Nehawka. IT is a gncc style track. Not a big area but looks fun. Also, council bluffs Ia, is decent too. not huge.
