For general conversations chatter away HERE
Have fun!!

Start with a Kermit joke:

Why can't Miss Piggy count to 100?

She has a frog in her throat when she reaches 69!

Sampson you ever see anyone with 2 and 3 kids on a big quad? NOT smart.

Been once. Did the same thing. Just long enough to make us pack everything and turn the suv around. Little cool in the evening for me right now. May have to wait until spring to try it again.

Did you try a chihuahua? Hear they're good but I didn't want to wait 2 hours in line.


And I've been know to tote my youngins around on mine. But it's OK because I haven't learned how to wreck yet.

first thing I wanted to know about a quad was how to crash it...what are the limits??? 3 times the first day...the over the back flip, the side slide and nose drop!! Once I had that mastered...I had every thing in the middle down pat!!

Looks like you may get some rain, if you trust the weatherman.

The pig joke will be ok, as long as no pigs were harmed in the telling of that joke.

First ATV I road was about 17-18 years ago. I was used to dirt bikes and the first thing I did was put my foot down and run the rear tire right up my calf. Think I limped for a week.

I need a sticker on my quad "CAUTION: Rider may BAIL at any time" ! Duck and roll.
On sand the landing is not much worse than water skiing...The last thing I want is to get tangled up with the machine!! Of course, I'm not worried about breaking my neck cause I got a bucket on my head.
On rugged terrain I'll ride it out.
Should have included in the guideline page?
RULE #1 Never put your feet down. Sampson it will make you walk funny. Also my worst injury (that or the hole). Can some one get the quad off you when it chews you up, racers do not have reverse?!
Rule #2 Do not use front brake on downhill run. My friend demonstrated this manuver T-giving. Brand spanking new Raptor 700, she had that moment of hesitation about direction to take at the bottom...did the full front filp with a half twist and was still mounted at the bottom of the hill. Yea, her neck was SORE.
Rule #3 Feather the clutch on short uphill run. Do not rev the engine and pop the clutch...lol a Tecate 3 wheeler will shoot out from under you like a bullett. Yes, I did that one on a sand (ramp) bump not ten feet from parking (I was not in 2nd gear like I thought). My favorite place to pull a stunt is full view! Or on the trail..."do you think you can make it up?"..."oh, yea...I'll GET IT!"
Rule #4 They don't call it a FIXED object for no reason.
Rule #5 Nylon rain pants are slick. You could loose your mount in the turn. The Kid demonstrated this one.
Rule #6 Your not Tarzan. Stay out of the trees. Only time blood was involved, right Tarzan?
Rule #7 Dismount on uphill side and hold on till help arrives. I didn't want to break my plastic!
Rule #8 A quad is not a bumper car. Dad, unless you knocking someone off a tree stump before they tip over and roll down the mountian side.
Rule #9 Carry at least 1 extra spark plug for each quad and/or a tow rope. Happened several times.
Rule #10 If the quad is steaming or smoking...get off, walk away!
Rule #11 Once you launch the quad, THE BRAKES DO NOT WORK IN THE AIR.
Rule #12 Gas it! Ride it like you rented it!

Had a buddy trying to learn how to wheelie and wrecked like 15 times in one day. Had a bloody chin from where he hit the handle bars but that was it. I'll give him credit though, the guy kept getting back up.

Been funnier though if it hadn't been on my trike.

Could have been worse I guess. I was pretty good at doing wheelies doubled up but the first time I took my wife out (then GF) we went off the back and I landed right on top of her.

And you guys thought running out of gas was slick?

I've only dumped one person. It was their first time on a quad too. If that wasn't enough, it was a Quadzilla. Didn't think I'd ever here the end of it. Occasionally, she still does remind me. Sorry honey.

I no longer ride on asphalt.
Helpless is sitting on a Kawasaki Ninja street bike (I'm the passenger) at the red light; alone no one on the street. The light changes to green, we begin to accelerate and I'm sitting on this idiots hood.
HOW THE HECK CAN YOU RUN OVER 2 PEOPLE IN A LIT INTERSECTION WHEN THEY ARE AT THE TIP OF YOUR NOSE!
6 MONTHS in a leg cast, 8 stiches to the back of my head (no concussion, whew) and a very small scrape on my ankle.
