Day in the dirt - Princess Mud Puddle rides again


Friday was a cloudy warm spring day and  it was motoX day. We were shooting a segment for Farkle Garage at West Shore MotoX.  It rained during the night so I was gleefully hoping for mud and puddles. After all they say mud is good for the skin. 

I was riding a Honda CRF 150, I love how light and easy to manoeuvre this bike is and I can honestly say I probably wouldn't get a huge monster bike if I decided to do more of this. 

Jeff at West Shore MotoX  (far left) was awesome! He kitted us out and had bikes for us to ride and gave us a brief lesson.  This is a perfect family activity and you don't need bikes and gear they have it all there.  The Farkle Garage crew had a blast ripping it up in the mud. 
Co-host Steve on the left was having a blast! It was a good day in the dirt. I had a ton and f fun, even stood up on the pegs, but today I am definitely feeling the ouch, but at least I was having fun!

Great job Dar. Playing in the dirt can be fun, but it sure uses different muscles!

I was slower than oatmeal going around the track, but it was fun. My quad muscles however were not happy with me at all the next day.

Its hard work though, have to say with all that standing on pegs my quads were screaming the next day.
