Where did you start on this site?

When I first joined, I was, I think 17. I owned a Grizzly 660, sold it from word of mouth on here. Bought a Z400 from a guy named Mike in Apopka who was on this site, hasnt posted much though.
I sold it to a guy by the name of MAV400 in Tampa. I since then bought a YFZ450 and a KTM 250xcf.
I am 19 now,20 in a month, still have my YFZ and XCF.
Met a few people who I raced with plenty of times, and some who I met at seminole who happened to be a member of the site.
How did you start?

I started under another screen name "Never Enough" and was here and forgot my password (too much Beer... lol). I had 2 Prairie 650's @ that time 2002 and was riding the ONF alot camping in the Big Scrub and having a blast in the bear holes!! I raced Moto X and Hair scramble races when I was 8 to 16 and always had 3wheelers or dirt bikes.
Since then...bought a Mule (hence the name SWAMP DONKEY) a Polaris 500efi 4x4 a 2005 Polaris Ranger 500 a 2005 King Quad 700 EFI a 2003 Honda Rancher 4x2 a Eiger 400 4x4 auto a 2007 King Quad 700 a Yamaha Rhino 660 4x4 and a 2008 King Quad CAMO 450 4x4 Auto. I have met some of the most increadable folks here and have become like family...the best of the best so to speak.

Ok well a friend of my aunts named Keith told me about this site, when i was like 12 or 13. So I almost immediatly joined it. At the time i think i had a little Chinese 150 and my dad had a 1994 300EX. I moved to a 1992 250X, then traded with my dad for the 300EX. I stopped coming on the site for a year or 3 lol. Then became friends with Jesse (Klutchbuster400) i met him at my school and started riding with him earlier this year. He convinced me to make a new account. But i somehow found my old one and just put a new password lol. Well i bought a 2001 300EX off a guy on this site named Dave. Bike ran great. My dad sold the 250X, and bought a 400EX off another guy from this site named Carlos. Ironically from the original person who told me about the site I ended up buying his 450R 2-3 weeks ago. I thank him for introducing me to the site. I have met soo many great people and ridden with quite a few of them.

I joined in January of '05 after buying a new 400ex in december of 04. I was 18 and just upgraded from a 1987 kawi bayou 300! I was a member of flatv.com first and switched over here after a few months because there were a lot more sport riders on this site. Met atvtrailer on here and found out he lived just up the road from me and we have been riding together ever since. Started getting into group rides and met a ton of awesome people and so on and so on! Best site on the net!

I rode 3-wheelers and dirtbikes as a kid @ 12 or 13. I went to street racing for many years. I sold my race car to a friend in 04 and part of his payment was a 01 Yamaha Blaster that I raced out the best I could.
My neighborhood has alleyways which I would ride down every now and then with my Daughter. I went by a house with a bad azz buggy and some quads in the back yard.
It turned out to be Hoss400 and Suzieblazer. I remember Hoss riding my Blaster and after that, he bought a Z400. Shortly after, I sold the Blaster and bought a 400 from my friend Chris Pritcher when he raced QS's and got a new LTR.
In the next couple of months, I'll have another quad!!

Been ridin 3 wheelers since the late 1970's ,rode my first ATC 90 in the Cypress in 1977 . Got hooked on the whole outdoors thing when i was a kid and never got tired of it .I've owned just about every model of ATC Honda ever put out and had blast ridin back then.
I joined the site some 3 or 4 years ago ....maybe longer .My screen name was robert4570 and at the time there was alot drama goin with some members and the site just was nothin but negative posts so I deleted my account .
Some time passed and kinda missed it , after a while things seemed to have cooled down a bit so I joined again as Foreman1 , just happened to have a Foreman so that was the name i used. Currently have a 2007 Artic Cat 650 h1 and ride occasionally when ever I can make time which isnt very often.

I browsed this site a few months before I actually registered, since I could view everything without doing so LOL. I believe I was 15 or so.
I had a late 80's Banshee that I got from a local dealer (J-Arms FTL!). Had it for a few weeks then sold it because of noise complaints. I live near a bunch of woods and I would ride it there, the tress would drowned out the sound but I guess they didn't like me putting down the street to the woods. Had no way to get to Croom with it either, so it seemed logical to sell it so I didn't get in any trouble.
I never got another quad after that, I got my permit and focused on money for a first car. Plus family issues failed to aid in the process of another quad. Now that I have a truck, I can focus on obtaining another quad. I'm 17 now BTW.

We got into quads about 5 years after our daughter (dirtygrl80) got her Trail Boss 2000 as a 19th B-Day gift from her grandparents.............we were still active in our Tampa Bay Buggy Club until it was disbanned cuz most of the older members were gone, and Ken Fisher got too busy with the shop...we got our quads, 2005 Z400 and 2005 Trailblazer and 2005 Phoenix, wanted to ride somewhere other than ONF for awhile, found site for Croom with a link to ATVFlorida and here we are.....and told that alley-ridin' neighbor about it.....
........and the rest as they say..is history....have met many great people and been on the Eureka and Rodman rides...nice times....

I started on this site when I was 12 or so in 05, and was buying a Blaster in the next week or two I think. I found this site on a Google search. So I got the Blaster that gave me nothing but problems and dumped alot of money into it, making it a 240 eventually. We bought a 03 250ex for my little brother from ds650kid, and an 01 300ex for my mom from rubicon500kid(Rode with him often) I then sold my DRZ110 that used to be my little brothers before his 250ex for 950, and my broke Blaster for 900 and put a down payment on a Brand new leftover 05TRX450R in 10/06 and have been slowly paying it off. Ever since then I have been riding alot and have $1500 in my 450R and alot more coming....lol

The details of my life are quite inconsequential... very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it.
