Ok, maybe not that â€œofficialâ€, but it is a thread for atv/dirt bike/ SxS themed stuff (pictures, discussion, etc.). I've seen similar threads on other forums, so I figured I'd start one on here. So feel free to share a photo of what you ride and discuss away.

Here's mine. It's a 1982 Honda Big Red 200E. No rear suspension. Minimal front suspension. No reverse. But it was cheap and it's a blast to ride, even if it does beat the crap out of you.

It also fits quite nicely in the bed of a ranger (excuse my weirdo friends creepin the photo. Haha)

I have a few from way back in 2006. These pics are from when I was stationed in Vegas. I had an '02 Ranger FX4 (my most favorite vehicle I've ever owned) and a 20060 Yamaha YFZ450 sport ATV. I loved it, that thing was a blast!

And a pic of 22 year old me being stupid with no helmet!

I know these don't count as dirtbikes/ATVs or SxS's but who doesn't love toy pics?

I've had several bikes since then, my favorite of which was a Ducati Streetfighter 848.

And now, I just have a Seadoo GTI SE 130. I was stationed in Fl for 4.5 years and never had one, now that I'm 3 hours from water I finally own one. haha. I've had it for about 1.5 years and it only has 16 hours on it.

Thank you. If only I could stay in one place long enough to really enjoy them.

Yeah, getting transferred all over the place must really suck. I have lived in the same general area my entire life. Don't really like it here, but at almost 62, it's not likely I will move now.

Its not horrible. It has it perks like, once you hate your boss it's time for him to leave. Or you. Plus you get to travel and live in different cities.

I'm from FL and never traveled out west until I joined. I got to spend 5 years in Vegas. I got to experience the different demeanor of people who live in different places.

There are downsides too though. When you make friends, someone (or you) always leaves. It's hard to establish a home or make big plans to your house if you know you're going to leave in a few years. Plus, I have a garage full of tools and a shed full of yard equipment that took me years to afford and collect. But if I end up overseas I have to sell all of that stuff as I'll have no need for it.

Sometimes, you're just ready for a change. My job is real monotonous and it's different at different locations depending on aircraft. So sometimes a good change is needed.

I would love a change of scenery, but that would require rolling back the clock about 30 years.
