Rocket Launcher Added a reply to RIP Jeff Alessi
10/3/2023 3:48pm My thoughts and prayers will be with the Alessi's. I am sure Tony and Mike (and the family) are devastated. Tony always had Jeff in the corner of his eye, and loves those boys fiercely. I got to hang around Jeff once in a while, darn funny guy, always super cool to the kids and fans that approached him. He...

Rocket Launcher Added a reply to 40 year old mxer's?
8/27/2013 2:52pm I will be turning 51 in a couple of months. I had a mini bike as a kid, and later had a few friends with dirt bikes that I got to ride once in a while. When I turned 42 and my son was 10, I bought us both MX bikes (YZ250F and a KX65). Hands down best decision I...

Rocket Launcher Added a reply to Ok Who was at the Austin F1 Race and
11/22/2012 6:13am My son and I went. We were there for all the activities on Saturday and Sunday. I am a huge F1 fan and this the first time I could afford to go, so I would not have misssed it for anything. Not even my first cousin's wedding (sorry about that).
We were able to see the race and activities from...
Rocket Launcher Added a reply to Reminder: F1 kicks off this morning in the USA!!!
11/19/2012 5:39am Good morning friends. My son and I got back to Houston late last night so I am dragging a bit this morning. All I can say is it was an amazing event. Austin did a wonderful job hosting the event and the circuit was amazing, especially considering it was their first time. I will post a few pics later.

Rocket Launcher Added a reply to Keeping cool while riding.... What do you use?
6/25/2012 12:09pm I am here in Houston with bigmaico and pretty much follow the same program.
When I ride at Rio Bravo, I also ride on the edge of the track a lot to stay in the shade. Its not always the fastest line but cutting down on the time spend riding under the sun can get you a couple more laps...

6/7/2012 8:57am I have ordeered OEM parts from them several times. They can take a while to ship sometimes, but their prices are hard to beat on factory stuff. Shipping can be a little expensive if you just order one part.

Good evening everyone, Last year when the economy decided to start running in reverse, it became harder for the few charity events our MX community does locally to raise money. So a few of us put our heads together to come up with a charity event that would benefit children, but would not require a lot of financial support...

1/27/2012 4:23am Good evening MX friends, I know there are several folks that hang around these parts that are from the Houston area. So I wanted to post the press release for our "Day to Play in the Dirt" event on March 28th here in Houston. We could still use a few more volunteers and MX swag for the goody bags for...

Rocket Launcher Started a new thread Why not run electric bikes at the SX
1/26/2012 7:22pm I know this is kind of out there....... There are several electric MX bikes now on the market. I think it would be great to see them race at intermission at the SX, right after the wee ones on the KTM's. I have never seen one at the track, so I don't know what all they can really do. I...

1/26/2012 4:40am Good morning friends, and happy Thanksgiving! For some reason, the Houston SX got bumped back to April. We don't want to wait that long so I am thinking of taking my son to one of the other races. I am looking for a SX where there might be a hotel next to the race venue so we can keep our...
