Riding Brewster Park

 

Jumping the KTM in Brewster park last September.

 

I ride a KTM mxc200 (yea, it’s a two-stroke), and my dad rides a Kawasaki Super Sherpa. My KTM is modified, with an aftermarket headlight, pipe, and muffler. My dad’s Kawasaki, on the other hand, is stock… (similar situation to our sleds!) But it still gets around.  They’re both are good bikes, and haven’t given us too much trouble – although I have learned how to get home with a snapped throttle cable…

 

The dirt riding season has only begun in the past week here. It’s the equivalent of a November snow storm: enough to get the sleds out, but not enough to ride very far. It’s kind of taunting. But, it’s only going to open up more, and today, I made it clear to Brewster Park. Actually, I made over halfway through, which is probably about 5 miles up the road.  Apart from a few snowbanks, it has dried out really clean. Unfortunately, I was, once again, stopped by an impassible drift.

 

It was fun to get back to really riding the bike again, and check out the road. Tomorrow, we’ll have to go and clear the road of some of the trees and rocks that fell over winter….
