Depends how you define peak. All motorsports have that specific time where cultural relevance, novelty and accessibility overlap and you get an explosion of interest and vibrancy that can never be replicated. What follows is a plateau or decline as things normalise.

I'm probably wrong (usually am) but I think moto peaked between 2000 and 2010. You won't convince me otherwise, because that's when I peaked 😂

I used to live beside a field and my neighbor was a retired NYPD dick. Kids used to ride a XR50 in an empty field, and each time my neighbor would call the cops on a damn 5 year old. The problem isn't noise, a lot of people straight up don't like dirtbikes, and I can promise no one is going to build a MX track in city limits. If guys can't make money running a mx track on cheap land in bumfuck, more expensive land in city limits will make it worse. I would bring a gas jug and...

Back in 1979 my yz125 cost me 11 weeks salary, I was a 1st year electrical apprentice. 2023 apprentice salary, and the yz125 will cost about 21 weeks.

I think so much has to just be the prices. My kid is 3.5 and would love him to ride moto if he wanted to. Would love to support him and encourage him to do it but looking at the prices now and it's just daunting. Doesn't seem like THAT long ago a decent, used KX60 cost £800 quid or so, now a used KTM 65 is closer to £1500. And £4800 new Dunno how good your dudes finances are, but for me and our small family; forget it. How many families, esp new fams without moto histories can afford...

Trying to predict weather in TN any further out than 2 days is a waste of effort. Let’s wait until Saturday. My guess is we’ll get a quick, early afternoon shower and then it’ll be done.

Right? But how come they've been correct this whole time?

That's easy to explain. With the largest chunk of earnings since WW2 taken by a government that gives it away to their mates, the remainder going to the same mates paying for bloated and price gouging services from former public owned service providers, house prices at 9x an average salary, the upside down mess Thatcher created with regards to income inequality, and 12 years of wage stagnation that has made an average household £10k a year worse off, no one under 40 has any money to spend on bikes. You'd have classes full of entries even without the wage stagnation...

Electric is only going to hasten the demise.

. Tyla Rattray's boeuf bourguignon recipe ; Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Pour chicken stock into a medium bowl and sprinkle gelatin evenly all over surface, allowing each packet's worth of gelatin to soak up stock before sprinkling next one on. Set aside. In a large Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Season beef all over with salt and pepper and add to Dutch oven. Cook, turning occasionally, until beef is well browned on 2 sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer beef to a rimmed baking sheet. Add split carrots, halved onions, and garlic to Dutch oven and...

That was the best part of the race except for Anstie winning
