Hey everyone! 👋🏍️ I’m Crystal from North Carolina! I race harescrambles and ride a 2026 Beta XTrainer 300 and a Husqvarna TE 300. I’ve been racing for a while, but now I’m dipping my toes into the world of hard enduro. Although, at my skill level, I prefer to call it SOFT ENDURO! 😂 Fair warning: I’m a sllllooooowww learner AND a slow rider! I’m definitely not the person who’s going to watch a technique once and magically nail it. I’m more of a practice-it-147-times-and-then-maybe-figure-it-out kind of girl. 🤣 But here’s the thing: I genuinely enjoy the journey. I love learning, challenging myself, laughing at my ridiculous attempts, and celebrating those tiny victories that probably wouldn’t impress anybody else. My goal isn’t to be the fastest or the best. I just want to keep improving, have a whole lot of fun, and laugh as much as possible along the way. And if sharing my adventures, struggles, and occasional spectacular failures encourages a few more women to throw a leg over a dirt bike and join this amazing riding community, that would be the biggest win of all! 💗 Looking forward to learning from everyone here, making some new riding friends, and hopefully graduating from soft enduro to something a little harder someday! 🤘😂

I'm Greg, I'm a fresh 54 years old, based in NC and been riding ADV and dual sport for several years. I bought a Beta 480 XPRO last winter to use as a DS bike. I wanted to have a day to tune the suspension and get the bike set up to my personal liking and went to Brushy Mountain, a closed course so I could make frequent stops back at the truck if needed. While riding on the new bike, I realized I was missing out on a whole different style of riding and a very important skillset. Working on technical skills is fun and really helping my all around riding. Will likely be on a 300 2 stroke soon. Looking forward to picking up some tips in here. Also looking forward to some in person learning in October from Catherine at Brushy Mountain. 🤘

I'm a motocross rider on a 1983 Honda CR 125 soon to be switching over to a Beta 300 RR XPRO this Fall to learn off road racing in AZ. I'm considered a beginner and live in the desert.

Hey everyone! I’m Vittoria, and I’m learning how to ride my 2013 KTM 350 xcf-w in northern Colorado. A new skill I’m working on is fixing my kickstand! Thank you Catherine for sending over visuals to get me unstuck 😂
