Back again after a short break from this blog stuff.. This time around, a few more pictures from our ATV riding days in Iceland. We are still in the early 90s and this time around we are doing some free-riding! Listen kids! Doing wheelies in the neighborhood street is NOT legal!!! Don’t do this at home!!!
In the early 90s me and my twin brother started racing our ATV’s in the Icelandic Championship series. Well actually we started the series by convincing the Motocross championship comity to let us compete on the MX tracks. The events in those days where not sponsored and the level of security and other things where at minimum ;o) But it was fun and I can’t recall any accidents during this period. After a few years of racing most of the guys went riding off-road or MX bikes and the ATV series was dropped! A great period in our lives with many great people and lots of fun both on and off track!
More ATV blast from the past… The 1990’s has started and the hair is getting longer ;o) Grunch music has taken the world by storm and we have advanced from the little Mojave thumper to more competition style ATV’s with 250cc two-stroke engines. The riding area is still the same in our backyard at home in
Ps. The Sævar you see in the photo, is the same person that you can see with the PanTail elsewhere in this blog ;o)
In 1988 me and my twin brother bought our first ATV. ATV’s where getting very popular in Iceland at that time and we wanted in on the fun. ;o) Our first ATV was a 1987 Kawasaki KSF250 Mojave. Rear wheel drive only and 30 something horses. We rode the hell out of it! Because when one was riding the other was waiting.. well you get the picture c”,) We traded what was left off it a year later for a Yamaha YZ 80 motocross bike. The Kawasaki Mojave was produced unchanged from 1987 to 2005.
