My dad bought me a Yamaha MX80G in 1981....one of the dozen or so times in my life I can remember him doing anything or wanting to see me.

Been riding ever since.

Brian (RIP) and Clay taught me how to ride FAST

My old man... 4yrs old or something... Clutchless 2-speed Yamaha Zinger... I figured out how to take the throttle stop screw out real quick. Then a few years later, learned the magic of the clutch on an XR 75 with my old man screaming at me the whole time ... so wheelies were fun... whatever.

I will say that I've learned more about riding street on the old TWF though... Brought me in from squidville and pointed me towards excellent reference material and more competent riders.
