Yesterday afternoon Dwayne ("D") brought in his 212cc mini-bike to the shop. After outfitting it with some Knuckle pegs everyone at the shop took turns riding it.


It moved out pretty quickly, but the brakes (or lack thereof) led to some near misses. :laugh:


Devin rode out onto the street and narrowly missed getting a ticket.

By the time I got to the shop, in the afternoon, everyone had taken their turn and wanted to see and video their old man boss ride it. I complied, and they had some fun watching my 57 year old ass riding around on it.


It's been many decades since I was on a mini-bike and it was a ton of fun, wheelies, burn-outs, little jumps and power-slides.

It was a blast! Here's a vid of me getting used to it and then hitting a little bump and getting a few inches of air on a completely rigid frame. :)
