That's a good question. I see a lot of OldMiniBikes members' bikes there, and it seems to be "the" authority on a lot of the old bikes.

 

[trailhopper]

Yep. I got my Trailhopper on there (imagine that). That use to be the goto site not to many years ago. Still is but I dont go there much.

Jay Leibowitz or something close to that I believe.

I find it to be incredibly lame.....:shrug:

It's been around 10 or 12 years I'm pretty sure, started by a guy named Jay, that's all I know. I used to post on there all the time, but now it seems pretty slow. Lots of good pictures and links though. I sold several things on their classified some years ago, but now it gets spammed a lot.

It is Jay and he is a super nice guy.

Is he on here? It's a helpful site. I built that Cat Hustler based on the brochure he had on his site.

Of course you do. You have an original brochure of Cat bikes. :wink: I need some high quality graphic scans of some by the way. I have beer caps, or if you insist, cash.

How about the old "mini bike club.com" the one that only gives you a taste of the most info compiled on the net :doah: Of course the last dates I see posted anywhere are from like '06 and it was like $5 to become a member, of course nowadays the member login directs you to paypal for $25 ut:

 

[maverick1]

Don't know but I can email and find out if you want.

since we are on the subject of minidoodle, I would like to give props to Jay :thumbsup: I know back in early '08 when I started buying mini's I spent ALOT of time navigating through that site, and I still refer back to that site alot and am grateful that its still there with great info :thumbsup: I know when I did use the message board regularly Jay was always helpful as he could be etc.. I Even bought and sold a couple of my "bucket list" bikes thanks to that site.

It was and still is a great site and I know alot of people still use that site for pics and reference that ends up over here.......so thank you Jay :thumbsup:
