Hello/Newbie

[Ardfarkl]

My buddy and I are a couple mid and late 40's MXers who find themselves hurt and out of the game for a year or more. Recently at the ROT Ralley in Austin TX he saw the Hooligan race, and they had a pullstart class. Both off us went nuts. We now want in but are completely stupid to mini bikes. All I have ever heard of are Taco mini bikes. Are there others tout there? What is a preferred race bike?

Thanks

If you want to flat track race like they did at ROT then this is what you need

Welcome to the site! If you look under the photos section you will find a plethora of pics categorized under their brand names. There were literally hundreds of manufacturers of these cool little bikes. If you have any questions, there's a wealth of knowledge here also. You can search or ask.

Welcome. This is a great site.

The first bike is a Powell.

Have you been to the Handbuilt show in Austin? I went there last year. Cool stuff.

Closer to home, we have Dirt Quake USA and The One Motorcycle Show. Dirt quake has a pull start class. Here are a few photos from DQ '15.

The One Moto Show
