Bike laws? Requirments? Restrictions?

GermanTrooper — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 19:39:59 GMT

Okay, I've found a nice bike, but its a bit old and I'm not sure of the rules, if any, on age of a bike and such.

Its a YZ 490, a bit of a bruiser and in need of some work, but would it be race worthy?

Where can I send 4 kids to MX school?

Racer needs a shot!

GermanTrooper — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 20:23:08 GMT

Okay, I know this sounds rediculously stupid, but I need to get into racing these bikes. That of which, yeah, I don't have one yet.

I've been riding a bike for the last two years, but its one of the ****tiest bikes I could have EVER bought, and off a kid who told me he was my friend. HA! Never trust a person who starts at $1,000 and settles at $300. Not worth the money or the damn china metal they made the bike out of!

Anyway, I need to get into this sport because I've always wanted it. Its been that shining star off in the distance that I've been reaching for, and with no support from my family or friends. Its just, unnerving... really, I mean, your family is supposed to back you up when you make a choice, aren't they?! Never the less, I just want to make it clear that I'm not asking for a hand out. Just a bit of hope from other riders who know whats its like.

So, for anyone willing to help, please do and trust me, you won't regret it. Its my way of life to work for others in return for what I want to do with my life. So, even if it seems like a worthless hand out at first, it will not feel that way at the end. I REALLY want this, and I'll do anything to get it. Anything, for anyone who really knows. And trust me, I won't let you down!

Thanks to anyone who took the time to read this whole thing out. I really appreciate it. Have a good one and ride hard!

Gottask8 — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 22:15:02 GMT

Camping at Hemonds or 207?

driven — Sat, 27 Mar 2010 10:07:21 GMT

Since I'm 2 hours from Hemonds and 3 hours from 207 I will need to head down the night before. Do either of these tracks have camping? Looking at buying a van or hotel reservations. Man this is gonna be more expensive than I thought, especially with Valley out. I could have driven there the morning of the race. *Might* be able to do the same for hemonds but not 207.
