I was missing the track, but without a "proper" bike what were we to do?

Yeah go on the grocery getters, just the kick in the butt needed to get the above gold pitbike ready after not getting finished over the last two years, only beakdown was the shock coming undone, even the knobblies were good enough! my purple Dax didn't miss a beat, and after an hour and a half of track time we were both also beat.

(Alright to cross post like this between groups?)

Q: what are pitbikes actually for?

[–] TerraRoot@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Well they started out as something to literally get around the pits on, got out of hand and now they are just small cheap bikes for fun and racing. I can fold the bars down on my Dax with no tools and sling in the back of my car one handed
