Canondale owners should be proud!!! I saw and raced a cannibal at the Gordons well Dunes this weekend. I was watching this guy beat all sorts of machines, from Raptors to piped banshees and every thing in betweeen. Very impressed. He got through the whoops nicely and just kept motorin on after that. After he took out my friends 330R, I figured I better go see if I should go home ashamed. Well I was able to beat him with my banshee, but only 2-3 lengths. After talking to the guy, he said he had an aftermarket silencer and that was about it. Anyhow, just thought i would let you guys know that your Canondales not only smoke the competition at the track, but smoke most of the competition at the dunes as well.

I experienced the same thing here in Utah at the dunes. Some guy on a Cannnondale smoked my brother and me up Sand Mountain on our raptors. Our machines were piped, jetted, geared, and opened airboxes, and he beat us up the hill by at least twelve bike lengths. His cannondale was bone stock and that thing ripped. I was very impressed.

I have a new Suzuki on order and I'm hoping it runs and handles as well as a Cannondale. I was hoping to read a test report today but that fell through. If I didn't have my Suzuki on order the Cannon was my next choice. Who know's I might make a change. Hmmmmm?

I raced a cannibal up sand mountain (utah) i i ate him alive. My bike is ported and polshied and all the stuff to make it fo fast. It was pretty fast though it was kickin lots of banshee's butt and it was beeting raptors by about 4 bike lenghs. I want to ride one they look pretty fast for a stock quad.

RoostKing, I'll send you some recent pics of my Dale as soon as I get them, if you want them. Let me know... I got some pretty cool pics on my site (no dunes though... yet) here. Let me know what you think.
