This weekend there is an international race for kids in France, MX Masterkids. The USA has a youth team there and ready to represent American MX. Unfortunately the youngest member of the team(Beckham Smith) did not have a bike show up for the event as planned. He was able to secure an electric bike but would be competing against the gas bikes. The family was bummed but stuck in another country without connections they were going to race anyways. This is where you guys as a motorcycle community stepped up. A Facebook post, some calls to friends across the ocean and a few hours later…. A racer headed to the event from the UK has volunteered to let him is his fully prepped race bike for the event. This is a racer doesn’t know the American family. Facebook “friends” I’ve never met in person, but only share the motorcycle passion with shred the story. MX friends in the UK, Road Racing friends in Spain, past families I’ve worked with in France, all shared the story and got work getting this kid a bike.
Motorcycle family is a special bunch. Well done guys and girls.

It was always just about getting out there and riding, for everyone.
Also, UK / US relationship runs deep. Not relevant here but still!
Nice story
