Let’s go over the calendar line-up….

Every Thursday we support the Twin Peaks Bike Night and have started our own “Bike of the Week” to show off the coolest bikes in attendance and their owners.

This weekend we will be running the 10th Annual Maiden Voyage Poker run to benefit Camp Quality Heartland. Ten years ago, the Maiden Voyage was Dillon Brother’s first ever poker run. Dillon Brothers has always been close with Camp Quality and we look forward to continuing to built on our participation.

Ladies’ Night, this is the crown jewel even for the ladies. All the spring and summer fashions with VIB double punches, take stationary rides on the Jumpstart system, professional photos on a new Harley and more!

Easton Memorial Poker Run benefits the “Hand in Hand” Program at Children’s Hospital and Medical Center in Omaha. We take pleasure in supporting benefits that place a hand on the care of children and finding cure for disease.

“Run for the Border” is our first Iron Butt ride. We’ll be crossing borders into Iowa, South Dakota, and North Dakota and then back to the dealership. On this ride you’ll be completing the Saddlesore 1000 which is 1000 miles in 24 hours. Do you have what it takes?

The 2nd Destination Ride is all about freedom. The freedom to leave whenever we want and the freedom to take whatever route we choose.

Our 9th Annual Day of the Hog benefits the MDA. The Muscular Dystrophy Association is voluntary health agency dedicated partnerships between scientists and concerned citizens. Their goal is to conquer neuromuscular diseases that affect millions of Americans and our goal is to help.

The MetricFest Show & Shine Swap meet is a ‘free to the public’ event for all metric motorcycles. Bike lovers will bring out their favorite motorcycle to the Show and Shine or bring in old parts to set up in a swap meet booth. There will also be a place to buy and sell participants bikes.

So there’s a line-up of events and we look forward to a great turnout to support these benefits as well as have an awesome time. We don’t want to forget that there are always some form of special running for all our departments, right now we are offering 0% financing for up to 60 months on the purchase of a new Triumph.

We love to ride as much as we appreciate our customers and their continued participation through out the years. Dillon Brothers events are a way for us to give back to the community and have fun while growing together. With your help and support, we will be able to continue funding these benefits through our love of motorcycles for years to come.

“My cousins and I would take out ATVs out after a spring rain and mud up our tires and clothes.”

I remember as a child one of my favorite activities was to hop onto a car hood tied to the back of Dad’s 3wheeler and he would pull my sister and I around on the ice and snow. We would return to the house with Rudolph noses, dusted in snow, and our fingers would take hours to thaw. As I got older I became aware of the term “mudding!” My cousins and I would take our ATVs out after a spring rain and mud up our tires and clothes. Those are the memories that are forever locked away in my memory closet.

As summer rolls around the corner, we’re going to be pulling out our ATVs and dirt bikes. Fine tuning the engines, replacing oil, gassing up and checking the tires. But why stay in your backyard if you can load up in a Chevy Silverado and really tear up the dirt?

With a large selection of Silverado 1500 trucks, Chevrolet has built trucks that’ll get you where you need to be and keep your cargo safe so you can make memories. The Chevy Silverado 1500 comes in four different trim levels, the: work truck, LS, LT, and LTZ. Available in regular cab, extended cab, or crew cab there’s a truck to suit your needs.

“Put all these pieces together and you get one great “kick butt” truck to haul your off road vehicle in.”

The Silverado is available in two different drive trains, four-wheel-drive and rear-wheel-drive and V6 or V8 engines. MPG ranges from 20-25 on the highway and 15-20 in the city. If you’re worried about the color there are plenty of colors to choose from: black, blue granite metallic, graystone metallic, summit white, victory red and more. Put all these pieces together and you get one great “kick butt” truck to haul your off road vehicle in.

So go out and make memories with family and friends, but don’t forget the 2012 Chevrolet Silverado 1500! For more information and details on the Silverado 1500…click here!!

“CONGRATULATIONS on your Pro License Chase!! Here’s to continued success in the future” 

To even qualify to compete in the championship in Las Vegas he had to finish in the top 4 in regional races. Having finishing 4th in the Expert event at the Southern regional and 2nd in Pro Sport at the Western regional he had earned a trip to Vegas to finally get a shot at getting his Pro license. Considering that most pro riders devote 100% of their time to riding and competing it’s even more impressive that Chase has achieved his life long dream while continuing to work full time as the parts manager for us here at Dillon Brothers.

He will be competing at the Spring Creek Motocross Pro National Round 7 of the Lucas Oil AMA Championship in Millville, MN coming up in July. Everyone who is interested in motocross is strongly encouraged to make the short 6 hour trip to Minnesota and cheer him on as he continues his lifelong passion of racing.

This is Chase’s 12th year of racing, having started at the age of 15 on his 2000 Kawasaki 125cc motocross bike. Nowadays he’s ripping up the tracks on a 2010 Honda CRF250. He is truly an inspiration for the rest of us here at Dillon Brothers as we’ve gotten to follow his career through the years and we celebrate the achievement of his life long goal of becoming a Pro rider.

Those of you who are into motocross racing or are looking to get into the sport you will find no better source than Chase  for information about the parts and gear you’ll need. Whether you’re looking for protective gear, engine parts, replacement body panels, tires, helmets, suspension upgrades, exhausts for either 2-stroke or 4-stroke bikes, brakes or even some new graphics to personalize your bike Chase will get you what you need. Just give him a call at 402-556-3333 and ask for the parts department.

As we continue on down the path of what is a motorcycle I’m going to jump around a bit and cover the off-road class. I know, I know, you’re probably wondering why I’m not going in chronological order as laid out in my original article but with motocross season in full swing I’ve been geeking out on the Speed channel every weekend and I just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to talk about one of my favorite types of motorcycles. Who among us didn’t drool over the old Honda scramblers and Yamaha enduros as a kid, longing to go tearing up trails and jumping over creeks.

Ever since Siochiro Honda first introduced Americans to the world of small, affordable motorcycles in 1959, we’ve become enthralled with the idea of taking motorcycles off road. In the mid 1960’s Americans were buying these small bikes by the truckload.  They started appearing on the backs of RVs and in campgrounds around the country as people started using them to get around the trails and carry them to their favorite watering holes.

By the late 1960’s Japanese motorcycle companies began challenging the European manufactures for supremacy in the motocross world. In 1972 the first stadium motocross event was held at the Los Angeles Coliseum and in 1975 a 125cc world championship was introduced.  During the late1970’s and early 1980’s the world of off road motorcycles experienced major leaps in technology with the typical two stroke, air cooled, twin shock rear suspension giving way to water cooled, single shock rear suspension bikes. The 1990’s brought along the first four stroke dirt bikes striving to become more environmentally friendly in the face of ever increasing pressure from the government and new environmental regulations.

Like countless others I was introduced to the founding fathers of the off road riding and racing world by what has often been called the most important motorcycle documentary ever made, On Any Sunday.  Even though it was made before I was even born it is a living tribute to the legends of dirt like Steve McQueen and Malcolm Smith. Now thanks to DVDs and streaming video companies like Netflix it will continue to be available for generations to come. Thank god since my trusty old VHS copy was just about worn out.

“Like countless others I was introduced to the founding fathers of the off road riding and racing world by what has often been called the most important motorcycle documentary ever made, On Any Sunday.”

The greatest thing about the modern dirt bikes is the variety of sizes and styles.  With sizes ranging from 50cc models complete with optional training wheels for the youngest of riders all the way up to 1000+ monsters in the newly emerging adventure touring class of motorcycles that allow you to enjoy the highways as well as the back roads and trails once you reach your destination. Todays off road motorcycles cover all of the needs of those of us who love to go play in the dirt. From motocross dirt bikes, to dual sports, to even what many of us would consider the ultimate adventure touring bikes like the Triumph Tiger Explorer, there is no limit to where you can go no matter your age or experience level.

From all the way back to the Christmas morning when my parents got me the Evel Knieval model bicycle with the handle bar mounted rev up motorcycle sound machine to my first mini-bike I’ve always loved the freedom of taking my 2 wheels off the pavement and into the world of off road adventures. I will continue to look forward to the future of off road motorcycle innovations and hope there will always be places to ride them.

See you there.

Previously we discussed what is a motorcycle. We then broke them into 7 basic categories which included Touring, Cruiser, Sport, Standard, Dual Sport, Off-Road and Scooters. Today we will focus on the Touring class of motorcycles and the 2012 Honda Goldwing in particular since for decades the Goldwing set the standard for all other touring motorcycles to follow.

In 1980 Honda released their GL1100 Interstate model, the first ever mass produced Japanese motorcycle to roll off the production line fully fitted as a proper touring motorcycle. Even back then the Goldwing was fitted with accessories both standard and after-market that no other brand could compete with. In the decades that followed their commitment to innovation has made it renowned as the ultimate touring motorcycle, a title that the Goldwing has held more or less unchallenged ever since. Every major motorcycle manufacturer has  full dress touring bikes to choose from not to mention Harley-Davidson and their near limitless number of available ‘baggers’ but the Gold Wing has been setting the standard since day one.

“Like all motorcycles touring bikes do more than fill a highly specialized niche.”

Touring motorcycles often mean different things to different people. Since their inception people have used them for a variety of purposes. While many riders enjoy taking long distance cross country trips on their touring bikes others never leave the city, preferring to use the the immense storage capacity of the touring motorcycles to make trips to the store or just to carry all of their riding gear.

The large amounts of storage really sets the touring class of motorcycles apart from the rest. Combined with the full front fairings and windshields, hard bags and large displacement motors they truly are the Cadillac of the 2 wheel world. Smooth and powerful, todays selection of touring bikes are so well balanced they can be deceptively nimble and easy to ride despite their size and weight. In addition to the highly advanced level of engineering modern touring bikes have almost all of the comforts of home. Integrated stereo systems, GPS navigation, cruise control, accent lighting and even heated grips and seats. Many riders even incorporate helmet to helmet communication systems so the riders and passengers can talk to each other as they cruise down the highway.

Like all motorcycles touring bikes do more than fill a highly specialized niche. With versatility and power supplemented by endless options and accessories they really have a lot more functionality than just long distance traveling. With all the choices these days you can trust the Honda Gold Wing to lead the pack in innovation,  design, and function.

In the coming weeks I will discuss the other categories of motorcycles, giving a brief history, more detailed description and popular examples of each.

New for 2012 is the Triumph Tiger Explorer adventure touring motorcycle.  With the BMW R 1200 GS Adventure and Yamaha’s Super Ténéré squarely in it’s cross hairs, the Tiger Explorer is primed to make a huge splash as it enters the ADV rider scene. Five years in planning and designing has really paid off in the end. Focusing on comfort, durability and of course stunning good looks, Triumph continues its long history of excellence.

“The beating heart of the Tiger is a powerful 1215cc inline triple that pounds out an impressive 135 horsepower at 9,000rpm and 89 lb-ft of torque at 6400rpm.”

With an impressive list of goodies including traction control, ABS, and cruise control on the base model the 2012 Tiger Explorer is bringing some serious game to the table as Triumph enters the adventure touring market.  Triumph will offer a wide variety of Explorer accessories for riders to cater to the varying needs of adventure riders including 60-liter panniers, 35-liter top box big enough to hold a full face helmet that has an integrated power port, heated seats, and heated grips powered all of which are by a class leading 950w generator.  Of course a variety of crash guards are available to keep your Explorer protected from your off road adventures.

All things considered, the Tiger Explorer should prove to be a more than worthy competitor in the world of adventure touring. With it’s smooth and powerful engine, long travel suspension and traction control, no longer will you be limited to the highway for your cross country adventures.  The Tiger Explorer will readily take you to the end of the road and beyond.

“Between government regulations, environmental groups and and liability issues in this overly lawyered up society times are tough for those of us who like to go play in the dirt”

It is becoming increasingly difficult to find places to take your off road vehicles to go riding, whether they be dirt bikes or ATVs.  Between government regulations, environmental groups and and liability issues in this overly lawyered up society times are tough for those of us who like to go play in the dirt.  In this article I will list and discuss all of the places to ride that I’ve found so far within a 4-5 hour drive of the Omaha metro area.

I read somewhere the other day that Nebraska is the last state in the country where riders young and old can use public trails for free with no extra license or registration required. That being said it also very few public places available to ride on including just 1 national forest. With no state funded trails or management program we’re almost exclusively limited to the kindness of landowners or forced to pay to ride on private parks.

Well I guess we should start with the closest places to ride and work our way out.  Since I don’t want limit this article to just Nebraska I will include all of the surrounding states [Iowa, Kansas, South Dakota] as well so long as the parks are within a 5 hour drive.  I will include all of the free as well as pay to ride places I find since we’re all just looking for as many places as we can find.

River Valley OHV Park is by far the closest place for Omaha riders to go off-road. Located just across the South Omaha Bridge in Council Bluffs, IA. at 4300 East S. Omaha Bridge Road this OHV park is open to the public at no cost and allows ATV and dirt bikes to ride the trails from 7:00 am to dusk. Since it’s in IA  you will need an IA DNR permit sticker for each of your vehicles.

Abbotts Sports Complex appears to be the next closest track. Located at 7600 N. 70th Street Lincoln, NE 68517 the Abbott Motocross Facility features 2 motocross tracks. The main track is 1.5 miles long and 30 feet wide. It features doubles, tabletops, rhythm-sections, rollers, and off-camber corners. They also feature a mini track that is open to riders 9 years of age and younger that ride 50cc or 65cc motorcycles or ATVs.  Abbott does have a daily charge of either $20/ rider for the main track and $15/rider for the mini track or you can purchase monthly or yearly memberships. ATVs are allowed on Mondays and Saturdays.

Unfortunately that’s about it for “official” places to ride within an hour drive of the Omaha metro area. I’m sure there are several spots on private land but without written authorization to mention them here it’s probably safer to leave them off the list for now.

“Hopefully we can turn around the disturbing trend towards banning off road riding in more and more places.”

Headworks OHV Park is a good place that requires a little driving to get to, just west of Genoa, Nebraska. This free OHV park features about 600 acres of sandy wood trails, hill climbs, camping and picnic areas. They usually close the park from the beginning of March till about mid May for seasonal dredging of the area so be sure to contact the Loup Power District first to check to make sure it’s open.

Fiddler Creek Motocross Park is located about 1 mile west of Homer, NE and about 10 miles south of Sioux City and is a members only track which runs $125/yr for a family membership.  They have practice runs available from 2:00-8:30 Tuesday & Thursday and races on the weekend.

Off Road Ranch located at 2900 Old Hwy 8 Norfolk,NE 68701 is a 30 acre ranch featuring a 300ft sand drag strip, a motocross/ATV track and even some snowmobile runs in the winter. They also have on-site camping available. The cost to ride is $20 for a daily pass or you can purchase an individual or family yearly membership.

Gypsum City OHV Park  is located at 2390 Mill Road, south of Fort Dodge just off U.S. Highway 20 in Iowa.  This 300 acre park features 15 miles of rolling hills and perimeter trails. It also has a 15 acre, 1.5 mile motocross track and a 0.4 mile kids track with beginner and safety training area.  The park is free to ride with proper DNR sticker and is open from sunrise to sunset.

Scramblers Motocross Park is located west of Yankton, SD.  Open 7 days a week, weather permitting when races aren’t going on and features a motocross track and a mini-track for beginners and kid riders. Cost is $10 per rider or you can purchase a yearly membership.

Rathburn OHV Park is on the southwest arm of Lake Rathburn off Highway 142 in south central IA.  Open to dirt bikes and ATVs this park encompasses nearly 125 acres in an abandoned rock quarry on Army Corps of Engineers land.  It is free to ride but as with all Iowa OHV parks a DNR sticker is required.

Perry Lake ATV & Motorcycle Trail is located just off of Perry Lake State park which is northeast of Topeka, KS.  The park has over 140 acres and features 2 short tracks, a dedicated children’s riding area and a longer trail with both easy and more challenging terrain. Riding is free open during daylight hours.

Tuttle Creek ORV Area is located near Randolph, KS which is about 24 miles north of Manhattan, KS.  It features 310 acres of steep hill climbs, rocky terrain sections with sharp turns, deep ruts, creek crossings and scattered mud puddles. It even includes some very cool jeep trails, which I know isn’t what we’re talking about in this article necessarily but I’m partial to anyone who likes to play in the dirt. The best part of all is it’s free.

Nicholson-Ford OHV Park is located just outside of Marshalltown, IA.  It is a 110 acre park featuring approximately 20 miles of river bottom trails. It is free to ride with an Iowa DNR stick as usual. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to gather much more information or reviews beyond that. .

Bluff Creek OHV Park is what seems to be the biggest and best place to ride within a 4 hour drive, just southwest of Oskaloosa, IA.  This 350 acre park with most of the area available for dirt bike and ATV riding features nearly 20 miles of trails, steep hill climbs and 3 motocross tracks.  A long abandoned coal mine, this park has well maintained and marked trails with some cool bridge crossings and even has camping available. Riding is free with the usual appropriate stickers and the hours are from dawn till dusk.

Talsmas Trail Park is located just across the South Dakota boarder at 404031 313th St. in Avon, SD 57315.  This is a private ranch with several hundred acres of designated riding area. The trails consist of climbing hills, creek crossings, overlooking bluffs, brush and open prairies.  The cost to ride is $25 per rider/day and camping is allowed overnight with 2 day rides. Hours are 9:00 to 1 hour before sundown on Saturday & Sunday and the same with Monday-Friday but they request you call ahead for weekday rides.

Tama OHV Park over is over in Iowa just south of Tama on State Highway 63. With 300 acres of tight wooded trail riding and some hills it also features a 15 mile perimeter trail, a kids track and 23 campsites, 10 of which have electric hookups. Riding is free but you’ll need the usual Iowa DNR stickers on your vehicles.

Harlan County Lake is located near Republican City, NE. With 9 miles of trails for ATV and motorcycles located on 475 acres it has a little something for everyone. The trails wind through a variety of terrain, ranging from rolling hills full of prairie grasses to streams to nice wooded areas. There is also a 2.3 acre area including a mini-track separated from the rest of the riding area that is specifically designated for beginner riders on a 90cc or small motorcycles and ATVs where young riders can develop their skills in a controlled, safe environment.  Riding is allowed from dawn to dusk and is free to the general public.

Dismal River Trail in the Bessey Ranger District of Nebraska’s one and only National Forest is located just south of Halsey, NE.  Unfortunately only 11 miles of sandy trails remain available to OHVs, down from 300 miles just a few years ago and only 18 acres of open riding, down from the previous 90,000. This is a painful reminder of the ongoing struggle with the government and environmental groups over areas available to ride your dirt bikes and ATVs.

Lakeview OHV Park is located northeast of Iowa City, IA near the northeast edge of Coralville Lake. This 160 acre off road park has 2 motocross tracks, a children’ area for 100cc and under vehicles and a mix of wooded and open trails. Riding is free with the appropriate stickers from the Iowa DNR.

Riverview OHV Park is located on Hawthorne Street in Waterloo, IA. This 180 acre park is surrounded by the Cedar River offering up some scenic riverside trails.  It features 2 motocross tracks including a Pee Wee track for the younger riders as well as a small hill climb. It’s free to ride provided you have your up to date DNR stickers.

Well that’s about all I can find for now. I will try and update this article if and when I find more places to ride off road around Omaha.  If anyone knows of other good spots that are relatively close please feel free to email me with them. Hopefully we can turn around the disturbing trend towards banning off road riding in more and more places. A good start would be for people to quit suing landowners when they get hurt riding on private land opened up to for some good clean and dirty fun. In the meantime we all need to do our part to be respectful of the existing laws and keep the places we have left clean and safe for future riders.
