    Gas saving bike hauler

    Hey thanks Michael! We will definitely be at the Superfly Season Opener on May 5th, last year we were in Akron I'd say 5 times setting up for the event over the summer - keep in touch and we can set something up

    Gas saving bike hauler

    Gay? really? We needed something to haul our canopy and product when we set up at events. Wife's Fit wasn't cutting it anymore and she said she wouldn't drive a van unless it was sweet. But you're right, it's totally gay. She should dream of a white suburban like every other basic wife in Ohio.

    Gas saving bike hauler

    Our bagged Odyssey gets low 20s with the bike on back. I took it down to Gatlinburg with just the Grom (and with standard wheels/tires) and was averaging 27. The factory hitch package can support just enough to haul the aluminum carrier and a 250f comfortably but a steel carrier might be...

    OMA 2018 More Updates

    It seems like a lot of the 30+ guys are discontent with the lack of bikes on the gate. Can I ask why the 30+ guys don't just ride 25+? Or why not combine those classes instead of trying to merge 25 with college boy? All three classes averaged 4.6-4.7 riders at the gate last year (3.5-3.8 if...

    ALTA Redshift Price Drop.

    was thinking the same thing. even if not when the bike is operating for some reason, it would be cool to automatically charge while you're taking a break. maybe put a panel under the seat so its can't be damaged, pop seat off between rides? with that being said this thing is already heavy...

    Does Anderson care?

    No one "likes" a run away title but it doesn't kill the sport when it happens. I don't think anything needs fixed. Anderson is one DNF from losing his lead, big whoop. Even IF he takes the title by 100 points, it doesn't change that the racing is great week in and week out. 10 race chase is...

    Privateer Standing Up

    The difference is that Camel was in it in the 90s. Flat track is even worse, at least the top moto guys get big sponsorship packages. Big tobacco has the money to spend, they just aren't spending it anymore because partially they don't want to and partially because no one wants them. Feld...

    Triple

    As opposed to the normal format? 24 minutes of heats, 8 of LCQs and 35 of mains for a grand total of 67 minutes so it’s not really any different except now it all earns points.

    Triple

    The LCQ aired on Live at 7:10et, same time as the first East coast heat races, not too hard to catch. I agree it would be cool to air that in the main show, but could you imagine racing your way into the main at 7:00 and then immediately racing again at 7:25? The show already starts at at 10et...

    Triple

    I'm so torn. As a traditionalist I don't think the format needed any tinkering, it was already exciting and efficient. It just worked. But man I'd be lying if I didn't say I enjoyed every lap last night. 6 different race winners? No one was ever so far in from that it was a sure thing...

    Ain’t just Ohio moto that’s dead

    Also its hard to judge a single-sample size in December. Sure we will ride all day in 50* weather but I know people in Florida right now (born here btw) that are wearing coats at 60. Their 60 is our 40 and no one here wants to race in the 40s either. Also when you have "raceable" weather all...

    Ain’t just Ohio moto that’s dead

    Local races are killing local races, or rather local tracks. This site lists what, 45 tracks open in the state? How many tracks were there back in these "glory days"? When every track is open every weekend the mass is going to get spread thin. I live 20 minutes from both Briarcliff and Route...

    2018 Local Moto Changes

    That problem already exists, the fastest guy in 250C at CTMX was 40 seconds a lap faster than the slowest guy. Not even the 50s have that kind of disparity.

    2018 Local Moto Changes

    at CTMX last weekend there were over 60 250C entries, I don't think combining the B into that would somehow make less motos

    2018 Local Moto Changes

    From an entrepreneur stand point, cut what doesn't produce, as long as it won't cause too much of a fuss. But is it clearly the lowest turn out and not able to stick in another gate drop?

    2018 Local Moto Changes

    25+ just seems silly, 25-29 is still in your athletic prime (and this is coming from someone in that age range). Personally I like D classes, not everyone started young and it makes newer riders feel like they aren't going to go out and embarrass themselves (or at least they are all...

    2018 Local Moto Changes

    How about some musing about something other than money and where it goes? At CTMX last weekend, wasn't able to race but still went to enjoy the weekend (first trip there) and there were 90 racers in the 250 classes, 60 of them in C. There were 4 or 5 riders in the C that not only could have...
