Howdy ya'll!
My name is Dan and I am a novice. I am from Minnesota, the land of the cold air. A quick glimpse of me, would be I started riding dirt bikes when I was around 7. I grew up in the woods getting dirty on the trails. I began freestyle skiing between the ages of 15-18. During that time, I tore two acls, and a whole lot of other ligaments.
I always had vouched, to myself, I would one day get a street bike. And with skiing out of my future, that day came. I grew up being taught the front tire should never leave the deck. After a few years of riding on the streets however, I had realized i wanted to learn to wheelie my bike! With that being said I had a very nice litre bike at the time I could not afford to drop.
So after a bit of poking and prodding and searching, I found a man selling an 01 f4i semi geared out. I hoped on her and brought her back to life, kinda
! This is where I began finding out what stunting truely is, where it came from, and where its going. I fell head over heals once I began seeing videos of what people were capable of doing!
By the time my bike was done, it was nearing winter. After a bit of riding I was able to "wheelie". But I was completely incapable of catching idle. Around this time, Jeff my buddy, convinced me to ride ice with him. So we studded our tires and went crazy on the lakes!
Which brings me to now, after much time in the lot I have found idle which makes me very happy, and im also begining to start cutting into circles! I'm sorry this post dragging on already!
Bottom line, I hope to meet as many of you guys and ride with as many of you as possible! Stay up guys
