| My Adventures with Mini NSR | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Welcome to my Mini NSR adventures page! Whenever I go out for a ride, I try to go out in a group with my other mini bike friends. Unfortunately this does not always happen! So I put up this section of the page dedicated to my personal road trip adventures. As you probably know, riding alone by yourself is not as fun as in a group, but there are some benifits to it though! First of all; No need to worry about the rest of your group trying to catch up with you (or vice versa) and second; you can pick when and where you want to go! :-) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| March 24, 2002-After the trip back from the local YSR race, it was still early and the weather way too nice not to go out for a ride. I decided to take the Rothmans NSR out to test the RC powervalve that I recently re-adjusted. This trip was not very far, but I decided to go up to Mt. Scott to do some mountain riding. Mt. Scott is about as highest you can get on the east side.. I don't know the exact elevation, but it's high enough that you can look west almost all the way to Beaverton. The trip took about 25 minutes to reach Mt. Scott.There were a few other full size sportbikes out there doing the same thing. It was fun. I think I gave my NSR a good work out that day! Some roads were VERY steep! I had to give the little 50 a break every couple miles just in case! Overall, It was a fun trip! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| If you look behind in the background on the second picture, this will give you a pretty good idea of the elevation. The last picture is when we got back home. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| March 30, 2002-This trip finally had a purpose behind it: Go to pick up some motorcycle parts! The destination was to my favorite Honda shop in called "Gresham's Mt. Hood Honda." Why do I like this shop so much? The guys who work there are super nice, prices are right, plus on Saturdays they have free fresh baked chocolate chip cookies! I was there and saw the new 4 stroke scooter. Its 49cc 4 stroke liquid cooled and looks very much like a Vespa! Since it was so nice that day, I decided to drop by this local park called Powell Butte to get some nice pictures. What an awesome day to go out for a ride! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
