I've had hundreds of bikes over the years, but the Honda CRF450R was the game changer for me. I bought the first one to hit the dealer in 2001 (2002 first year model) and bought a new one every year until I quit racing in 2015.
Right now my dirt play bike is a Husqvarna FE350.

that's awesome MX! Never got into racing really other then the trackside spectator. More backcountry stuff or play on my own track. Was out of dirt by the 90s. Street rider after that.
Cooper Webb as you may know of is our local hero here. HIs Dad and I used to surf together when Coop was a kid. They owned a cool local surf shop and Cooper was always out back tearing up the track. Miss the bike days

Coop is one of my favorite riders! The guy's got incredible skills and incomparable tenacity. I've seen vids of him surfing too, very talented and could have been a champion at that also.

Not really, there are so many bigger creeks and rivers.

The bottom picture reminds me of one I used to go fishing with my father at a place called Bullengarook. It had trout and blackfish in it and he would tickle the trout that were hiding under hollow underside of the rocks on the sides mesmerising them then grabbing the gills.
Once in a bad drought in the 1970s we went there and the water was fast disappearing. We were scooping up trout up to 2 lbs with fishing nets in what was left of the small pools. We got heaps before it dried out.
