I drove by a high school last week and I counted 4 trucks that had bikes loaded in the parking lot. Dam, when I was going to school you could count the number of riders on one hand and we had 1200 kids at our school. This was mid 80's granted. Ocscottie was the fastest kid by far...
I just laughed
The Shop
kyle but he was always two grades ahead so we werent in the same school long.
I remember a few of us rode and raced, mainly myself, my buddy Chris, and Art Higgins moved to our school I think his senior year. He used to come to school in his van with his bike loaded inside the van. Chris and I used to ditch class and go riding in the canyons nearby.
We all raced at Barano Oaks. Art and Mike Craig got into a jumping contest over two table-tops one Saturday during practice. Of course, Mike won that contest with some sic nose touches to the front fender!!
Maybe there were a total of 10 of us that rode or raced back then...
North County Inland had all kinds of riding area's back then!!
There were quite a few people with utility quads and small trail bikes that they rode a few times a year though.
Totally pre-arranged, of course. The biggest rebel to ever hit THAT school owned a 79 RM250. Rode up the steps to a door held open by a friend, hauled ass down the straight hallway and out the other end, through, amazingly enough, ANOTHER door held open by a buddy. Middle of the afternoon classes, all classroom doors closed by policy. Out of the building and gone before any teacher saw who it was. Don't think HE wasn't the man for a while! Paled in comparison to some of the other shit he did over the years. Still alive today, too. Amazingly enough.

Good times Craiger, good times!!
Shaggy ditched that bike at my parents house and walked home. Cops saw him and questioned him, he said he was doing yard work for my mom. He ran home and called my mom just as the cops pulled up the driveway. My mom covered for him then they went to Jacks house. Jack said the cops had nothing nice to say about my mom. They new what was going on but couldn't cuff anyone.
I must have done thousands of laps on Trevors moped track. My two speed Puch tore that place up.
I had some good times night racing at Baylands after school. I wish all of us would have had the opportunity to race together.
first raced there wayyy back on 60's. Lotta good times there over the years.
Here is a nice little Baylands holeshot, 1983, this is just out the 2nd corner.
One guy tried to make it to the "Big time". Scott Davis races a few 125 SX's the golden state nationals and Ponca City 84-86.
He and Danny Bonham became "local pros"
I was just an AM squid
