Spring is around the corner in every sense, hopefully.
Apropos of nothing, I will say that after a lengthy lay off, riding the two strokes is SO much more fun. We had a funny mix of bikes - my mates little 1974 CR125 was a total gas. You need to wring it’s neck but it’s a fine handling little bike.
That XT500 in the pic was a surprise too - motor had been fully rebuilt with a slightly bigger cam. Extremely well set up and very fun to ride. You can definitely see why they worked for flattrack - crack the throttle and dial in the angle. Awesome gags.
