[QUOTE="Plushpuppy, post: 10281, member: 348"] k, taters are cooling all I gotta say is when we go trail with people who ride mx mostly--they are good for an hour (if that) before they start whining and poof out. I think it's the mental fatigue of not knowing the trail, and that the trail is groomed like a track--sure there are jumping ops, but there's usually a tree hugging the landing, and a big rock and, and (ya know?) And then usually they forgot to adjust anything so they're getting beat up riding their track bike over crap, and then they usually have no sense of direction so you have to nanny them back to camp cuz they need a beerRIGHTNOW (haha) I do like mx, watching mx, n stuff, and like others have said the mx skills are sure worth taking time to master...but offroad people are just funnerer. I know guys that if they get lost in the woods they are not askeered of just laying down and going to sleep for the night--and I just bet they are happy for the op to BE LOST out there and not have to come back--the fun of whatever it is they do out there in the dark of night is worth facing the pissed off wife at home. It takes a level of mental endurance to make it all day on the trail--there is a lot of info to process over terrain that is never the same. MX is balls out for x-minutes in a relatively controlled repetitive enviroment, off road is constantly rationing what you got to be as much balls out as you can for HOURS in an uncontrolled changing environment. In closing I have to say, regarding off-road is funnerer, I have NEVER EVER seen a blow up doll at MX event. :moon::prof::banana: I guess maybe a Monster Girl would count, but she wasn't naked and strung with xmas lights...
