Oh and yes a properly set up 300 2t works real good in the desert. Especially in the right hands, a guy who rides them all the time.

Message me with the particulars on your bike or better yet email me at marcvertoch@gmail.com. Pictures would be great also

Upgrading to a newer bike, moving on...?! Anyone who doesn't know REVERUP...skilled rider who takes great care of his equipment.

Here is some footage of Skyler in the desert. Dude is nuts. The terrain changes DRAMATICALLY at the 10:40 mark, this guy can ride.

I would assume if the orange bikes can do this well in the desert, the GG can't be too far behind. It's probably 97.4735% rider, with the remaining portion suspension tuning, but still.

That was pretty awesome, to watch. The only part of that ride I could've done with equal speed...pick my bike up, off the big rock.

Yeah all of his are good. No music except the sound of a 2 stroke.

Our race is coming up the end of January. Feb 1st is race day.

The course is a little tighter than most desert races. We have a kids race, and believe we are doing a short night race as well.

Can check some of the course on my youtube channel.
