I did it in the dirt/gravel on my Honda 50 step-thru once, racing a dude with a 90 (he wouldn't take no for an answer and gave me a head start; never caught up), and then again riding on a dirt road with my 90. Again, once. It was scary, but I was "motivated" to win against someone who out-powered me in both instances. Stanley
