I tried quad first time (If I remember correct it was 200cc ) at my friends summer place and that didnt go as planned. I came back from ride and in last corner I had bit too much speed so I found myself in ditch.
Had pretty luck good that nothing bad happened, only one t-shirt was ripped and had minor wound in chest.
At that point I was thinking to myself that I wont get any ATV never, but here I am currently making engine overhaul to Polaris Outlaw 525IRS
