Had to wait until I joined the Navy before I got on my first bike.

This is what my "pride & joy" looked like. I was lucky to have it.

Mine was a 1975 or 76 Honda XR75.

My uncle told them to get me a 4 stroke, as I'd kill myself on the 2 stroke.

I really wanted that YZ80.

I begged my mom for the XR75 to no avail and then two years later I woke up to the YZ80. I had no idea I was getting it. That 2 stroke power and was a beast I tell ya. I didn’t even know how to ride yet. Best years of my life.

I was a Bob “Hurricane” Hannah fan.

Mine was a Honda SL70. I had to buy it myself at 11. (That was a LOT of chores) The previous owner of mine owned a body shop so mine had a "custom paint job...black with flames.

when my dad was about 14 his friend has a dirt bike i don't remember what it was he was ridding it when he hit a bump and flew off the bike and he hugged
a fence post he said he laid there about 10 min. before he got back up and to ride the bike back he said it was painful when your still hurting in places and riding through a bumpy field

I only rode a horse once it had no saddle and when it bent down to eat some grass I slide down it’s neck and face planted. Never got on another one till this day.

My other ride. SX100 but I had the red v-bars, red sprocket and a red tuff neck.
