Spreading the OldMiniBikes infection

[GASOLINE]

I just wanted to share that my 11 year old daughther's best friend, Sonia reluctantly got premission from her parents to ride our mini bikes. I gave her the operating run down, a helmet, a little OldMiniBikes talk, and then she was off down the road breaking the laws!! It was a lot of fun!:thumbsup: She's a very good girl.

BTW-The bearings, jack-shaft, and gears on my Bonanza BC 1300 T project were so rusted that they had become one on a molecular level. It took two saw-all cuts, and 1/2 hour of torch time to get the stuff off. It felt real good too. That's what I call progress!

Now that's what mini bikin is all about:thumbsup:

Yeah starting them at a young age is always the best way. They will remember it even when they are grown and have there own kids.

My 12 and 14 year old girls love minis.
Nothing better than getting the kids involved:thumbsup:.........well that is if you don't mind a PURPLE Bonanza now and then:doah:

That >IS< what it's all about, bet you had more fun watchin and worryin than riding. :thumbsup:

 

[GASOLINE]

You guys are right, I'm having too much fun with this! I'm known as the biggest "old" kid on my block. It does make me worry a little, but I suspect if it's handled correctly, EVERYTHING will be OK. Old Mini Bikes Rule!

So far, I'm not taking any color advice though, but who knows. Purple is pretty cool!

Hell yeah! I've taken my 3 year old daughter on a couple slow rides down the street on my lap and she loves it, hopefully she'll like riding someday.

This little 60 lb guy right here was on Mansville at the local racing spot.
He was clocked doing 90 mph on this little bike yesterday.
That seems way to fast for only a 10 year old kid, but his dad said he can handle it, and he did, about 7-8 times.

Delray-you are living BIG! Cool pictures.

My 7 year old son Ady has not gone solo yet. He practically wants me to build him a "Knight Suit" before he will!

That Mansville scene is just crazy! Has the right name!
I can't believe that kid pictured was there. 90mph must feel like 300mph to him.
Do you guys ever get arrested?

I can remember what it was like being fearless! Usually one good hard crash cures you of it though!

Naw never get arrested sometimes they make us leave once a month. usually because of the cars doing donuts.

Your right Neck, until you fall your fearless. Anothing thing is he wears so much protective wear he doesn't feel the air blowing yet. The air blowing over your face, or fliping your eye lid, or entering your mouth is scary.
