Who thinks flatlanders cant ride

On the other hand, I have never ridden in the "Flatlands" so I'm pretty sure there are a few things I could learn about....ditches, or curbs, or whatever dangers abound in the flats but I'm sure I could probably ride just fine there.

I have been riding strictly mountains since my first sled in '88 (I'll save you the math, that's at least a full year before you were born) and I would not be so bold as to spout off about how awesome I ride because I will always have a great deal to learn about mountain riding.

Let your riding speak for itself if the recognition is so important to you.
You come across as a punk when you have to brag about yourself.
Have fun in Revy. I have mountains within a 45 minute drive from my home.

BTW, Look up the old story of the two bulls standing on the hill over the herd of cows in the valley below.
One is older and very wise and the other is very young and....well, dumb.
You figure it out.

I'm glad to see that a 47 year old is comparing himself to me. I'll be glad o back myself up. Better hope that xtra 9years of riding pays off!!! Pretty sure that other flatlanders on here will back up the answer to this general question of if a flatlander can ride. We can. That's all that needs to be said. None of this other bull shiat about my age and what kind of sled I ride. you guys care way too much. ride on and if we ever meet hopefully I can prove a point.

good. I didn't bring it up. Addren. adick did. Thank him. Read my last post in case you missed it.
 
I'm on a family and friends trip so you more than welcome to tag along to tog if you want. I would be more than happy to ride with you there!!!

TRANSLATION:
Daddy's driving and Mommy said we can't stop anywhere until we get to Tog.
I would like you to come there and teach me how to ride.


Are you serious about riding with this kid Phatty? and he's gonna keep up with you?
Does this kid not buy videos?:confused:

Mom is dead. for the second time on here. but no dad can't ride b/c he has a bad knee.. Got a scrub last year and got staff. And now b/c of the way he has been walkin he has to get akilies tendon reconstructive surgery along with his total knee in Jan. I ride with my brother, or my friends. And I drive if my dad doesn't, which is most of the time!

LOL I will give him a copy of the Boondockers 3 and 4 after he buys me pizza :)

Ya i would love to ride with him. How many other people get the chance to come ride with us and be filmed for a day? If he owns me then he can come on here and talk all the smack he wants...

Togwotee is too open... we need the tight technical chutes and trees in alpine, straight up huge bowls and lots of make it or wreck it spots, not to mention there is a 40-50 foot cornice drop up there i have been meaning to film... 10:30 :clock:

M&M may have moved to their new store, but Troy still has his shop and thats where were meeting... Heck i bet we could even talk old Troy into coming along with us (he is a fantastic rider!)
 
Well Boostboner, I wasn't referring to you in particular, but to the author of the post. But since you felt like jumping in, allow me to rant a bit. This site seems to being overrun by people that like to "brag" themselves up. You seem to fit the mold. I think it is pretty funny that you need to let everyone know what a skilled mountain rider you are, instead of letting your skills speak for themselves. Kinda like the guys that walk around telling everyone how big their Johnson are, when in reality they have mangina's.

yes troy is a great rider. but i'm goin to tog so. Yea. need to get used to the new sled. 340hp is a lot to handle. another 100hp than what i am used to, but I'm sure it won't take me but a day or so to get used to it. You are more than welcome to come to tog and ride with me though!!! Would be great to get on film. Got some firends coming along that are pretty good riders too. They will try just about anything. One of 'em loves to fly!!! Loves to drop. But alpine doesn't really have enough snow either to go anywhere in case you haven't been following the conditions there!!! Tog sounds good though. Plus I don't wanna ruin the sled my first time out...

PPL asked if flatlanders can ride so I just put in my .02!!! Some of us can believe it or not!
 
Glad that you guys have no life. Drive 3.5 hrs to meet up with an 18yearold kid. Thats good. Im picking up the sled and goin to tog. You can meet me there. I don't care when your gonna be at Tj's and they moved into a new store if you didn't know. I'm on a family and friends trip so you more than welcome to tag along to tog if you want. I would be more than happy to ride with you there!!!

I believe that YOU were the one who made the initial challenge of being able to outride anyone who wasn't on a boosted Yammie. You had better be there to ride with Phatty. So man up! It sounds like you are starting to make excuses to get out of riding with him (BTW, Phatty isn't that old) You started chit like a man, now you had better finish it like a man!

I don't care if the sled is yours, your Daddy's or paid for by your Daddy, just STFU and back your constant smack up. You have been challenged by a excellent rider on a 2 stroke and, if I were you, I'd be there on the 27th to ride with him or you have been OWNED by default.

We all are getting tired of hearing your chit! "I am 18 and I have over $100,000 worth of toys and I used to own property in Steamboat Lake, but I sold it to move to Nebraska (stupid move, there)" You have talked SMACK to a lot of folks on here and you have been confronted by every single one of them. And, for what I have read, NO ONE has come to your defense! I wanna see pics and video of you taking it to Phatty, Oberti, Burandt or any of the premier 2 stroke riders out there! Put your money where your mouth is and accept the challenge!
 
Boostboner, you make friends everywhere you go dont you. Imo we are all snowmobilers, not flat landers or moutain riders, just snowmobilers, we are all fighting to keep riding areas open, maybe we should be banding together instead of dividing into flat landers or moutain riders or what what ever else were calling ourselves. I know i sounding kinda touchy feely. But if your posting a thread asking "who thinks flatlanders cant ride" then maybe touchy feely was what you were looking for. now to answer your question flatlanders cant ride for chit, every one knows that!..........j/k. my .02

you're funny. But I don't even ride around here b/c there is nothing but cornfields. So that might just make me a mtnman!!!;) But I agree on the snowmobilers part. Tell that to several others on here. Tell that to the one who started the thread!

and I didn't claim that I could outride anyone that wasn't on a boosted yammi. but nice try. I'm positive that there are a **** tone of riders that are better than me. I'm just saying that I can ride well enough to be on the sled that I Own! Thanx for puttin words in my mouth. I never said I owned prop in steamboat. My family (DAD) did. I did accept the challenge. In tog!

On a side note, you had stated in an earlier post that you WEREN'T A FLATLANDER, because you grew up in Steamboat Springs. Make up your mind, you are or you are not!

**Note to flatlanders** It doesn't matter if you are, at least you are out there riding and having a good time! :beer;

50/50. Lived in steamboat and moved to NE. Live here so that kinda makes me one but don't ride here. I only ride the mtns. Snowies, RE, Steamboat Lake, Cooke, Tog., Vail pass. so that makes me a mtn rider but I don't care I ride a sled and have fun doin it!
 
Hi guys, I'm a mountain rider and I can't ride worth a chit, but I sure have a lot of fun trying.
 
BACK TO THE THREAD
