Hannah Talks Loading Ramps

This weekend I was riding at one of the more popular riding areas in N. CA (Prairie City OHV) when I saw something I have not seen in many, many years. The incident reminded me of my very early years riding. I was parked next to a couple of young guys who were having a lot of fun riding. We talked about the beautiful day, the great rding conditions and they were curious as to why I would ride an old two stroke. I just laughed and told them they were just fun. They looked at me like I was crazy as they started their late model CRF450's.Towards sunset they started folding up all their high tech gear, roost protectors, neck braces, high end boots and helmets etc. Then they were ready to load the bikes in their new F150 four wheel drive pick up....this is when I had to stifle a laugh. They pulled an eight foot long 2x6 out of the truck for a loading ramp. Sure enough, even with two of them loading the bike it nearly ended up on the ground. I offered them my ramp to use but they insisted their 2x6 was just as good. I think they may have had their priorities a little mixed up. I suggested they take a look at this video and heed the words of the "Hurricane". I suspect they didn't pay much attention.
