Wanted to get my grandson a Suzuki 70 for his birthday but my daughter was not receptive to that after she rode herself from age 5 to 16 so don't get that one. Ended up getting him a pretty nice Razor MX350 battery powered motorcycle that will go 14 mph so guess next best thing? Maybe he will...

My last Maico as can't race anymore but went all out on this one as 4-1/2 in the making and a good friend helped me finish the project. Bike pulls extremely strong and feels like you could drag the bars in the turns even though I can't...liked it has the famous Maico handling!

How did everyone do for the year? A big congrats to Jack Babbit as he won two #1 plates in the 250 B and 125 B intermediate classes overall. He also went undefeated in the 125 B and won almost every moto in the 250 B events. Maico Mark

Only 1 day to go until surgery as I am finally getting my lower back fixed thru surgery. Having L-4, L-5 & S-1 fused with graph, rods & screws. Getting the trick Titanium rods & screws so that sounds better than stainless steel! Guess I am a little nervous about it but am way past the...

halffast unfortunately broke his right tib & fib yesterday afternoon, had surgery later in the day & hope the best for him. Major bummer as this was his good leg as the other side already had pins in it. Wishing him a speedy recovery & hope he heals up ok as he is in the older bunch on...

Guess we are lucky to still have an AHMRA event in Ohio for 2 years in a row. Pre-entry for Action Sport in Athens, OH closes on June 8th. It sounded like everyone had a good time last year. Anyone plan on racing this year? http://www.actionsportsracing.com/vintage.html Maico Mark From...

After many years of sandblasting & painting parts I finally took the time to take a batch in for Zinc Plating. Started off at Medina Plating but went there discovering they had a $150 minimum charge & had a few more things to get in as the cost was fairly high so did not leave anything with...

Seeing 49 showed up for me today. March one was in like a Lion, ok at least back in 1963 & again in 1979 as 16 was quite a memorable night! No big party as I am off work due to being rear ended in an auto accident on the way home from work two weeks ago & was back to the doctor today as I...

Anyone race Budds Creek's AHRMA National last weekend? If you went any stories & pictures are always great to see. We lived about an hour away from 1986 to 1995, frequently raced there & went to their Nationals & GP back around 92 or so.

Time to mark your calendars! Anyone headed to Bourbon, MO for the first Team Bull event? I have the feeling The Bultaco Boys will put on a first class event & this will grow into one of the premiere events like Diamond Don's. Wish we were in but my stinken back is still out....darn...

Anyone heading to Portland, MI this weekend? Wish we were....

Anyone going to WV to race Mountain Fest this weekend for their MX or Harescramble races? Wish we were going as the track being located on a hill side is lots of fun with lots of generous off cambers but my back is still acting up. Was at the doctor yesterday & after 2 years of trying...
