Thanks to everyone for the great welcome to DBA! I will be sure to recommend this site to all my dirt bike riding buddies. I will also not hesitate to ask you guys about bike stuff if I have any questions that I need answered, which I inevitably will.

Hey Johnny, welcome to DBA. :cheers:

So what kind of bike do you have? You ride track and/or trails?

I ride a 2007 YZ250F, all track. First year riding...or should I say, first couple months? Here in Alaska, we only have 3-4 months of summer where the ground isnt covered by snow, and I dont have a snowmachine, so I ride as much as possible, as does everyone else here.

Do you guys actually have a race series or is it just mostly riding on other people's private tracks?

We have a racing series. Its not quite as unorthodox as I may have made it sound, lol. Many people really do have private tracks, but most people wont let you ride there, because they're...well, private. There is basically one public track in each major city. The most popular motocross organization up here is the Anchorage Racing Lions Motocross. It is named after the city of anchorage (largest city in Alaska, where I live) and they maintain most of those public tracks. You have to pay to join, but then you can participate in organized races on groomed tracks. we have a racing series for quite a few cities (anchorage, kenai, fairbanks, etc.) and a State series, with the races for the state series being held in various cities.
