"When I was a child, I did childish things... when I became a man, I set aside those childish things and started riding motorcycles"... |

|
My first bike... a 1972 Suzuki MT50 Trail Hopper. 25 years later I found another restored MT50 on ebay for my daughters (yes I am a self proclaimed Ebay addict). |
|
My next bike, a Suzuki A100. Wow, this thing was cool! And check out my green jean jacket. My brother JR was sporting equally cool duds. |

An early 70s DT250... not actual photo, mine was way more thrashed with a lemon yellow tank with black flames I painted on it. Remember that Jimbo? Remember chasing chickens on the farm? |
|
My brother Jeff's MachIII 500. This thing was too fast! Two stroke rocket, it was a wheelie king! First time I hit 115 mph . Thanks for the memories Jeff. Wish we could go back to those days. |

Ahhh...my first new bike. 1980 KDX250...every farmboy's dream. My only 1/4 mile long wheelie measured by Eb Fuchs. Thanks for helping me with the loan JR, and check out the hair! Can you say 80's? |
|
|
|
CB750... rode it to work and college as often as weather allowed. |
|

YZ250... what a beast! First bike I studded for ice riding. Screwed up my knee and ankle jumping the driveway on Christmas morning 84" |
|
The glory days! Racing District 23 motocross. What a great time I had with all my buddies from St. Cloud. Guess I couldn't afford a haircut back then... |

Racing was the best! Learned a lot from my buddy John Witte, who still rides hard even though he is an old dog like me now... check out his website at: www.bartzmower.com |

Days of old before having daughters, owning a home, and running North Woods Laser. No wonder I could fly... there was no weight on my shoulders! |
|

|
Back in the day when all my hard earned money went into my bikes and Jet Skis and saving for a home. Check out my nephew James... you should see the man now! |
|
|
|
The Banshee ripped! That is all I have to say about that. |
|
|
 |
 |
|
|
650 Night Hawk... not a bad bike. But not nearly as cute as my oldest girl Ashly. |
|
250R - best 4wheeler I have ever owned. Fast, very stable, and jumped like a bike! |
|
|
 |
 |
|
|
My current street bike - 1995 Buell Thunderbolt. Thunderstorm heads & pistons, Screaming Eagle ignition, Vance & Hines exhaust. 1200 CCs of thump thump! |
|
|
|
Taking my "Pops" for a ride. Not bad for an 86 year old... |
|
|
 |
 |
|
|
My newest bike (remember, I am an ebay junkie). 2001 DRZ400s. Best dual-sport bike I have ever riden. Shown hear before many of the mods I made to it. |
|
|
Sleds are fun, but way too hard on the body! Better stick to bikes from now on... |
