[Brian d'marge]

ok took the boy round the corner to akigase park, look in the images for a small jap kid on a pocket bike , thats where we went

Friday they were practicing for race day , sorry no photos of that because I was working yesterday and couldnt get down there .

Lets just say ...think of you hairiest big balled Kb racer , add a touch of rossi and stir in some magic brave dust , and you aint comming near to these 4 and five year old on a pocket bike.

I would not be making up when this kid on a repsol honda painted pocker bike , CLEARLY focused on the apex , had the front end SLIDING and chattering away EVERY time he came out of the back straight corner ... The fella is/was fearless

FAST ...this kid was a rocket ..... and he was just one of many !

Anyway popped back today , unfortuantely they were scooter drag racing still there were some interesting bikes .. check out the blinged scooter ( a craze here at the mo

Also the Sachs moped ..interesting wee bike

oh BTW these scooters were way fast !

How fast were the scoots going? Sounds like Japan has a few more rising stars for their future in MotoGP.

[Brian d'marge]

When you look at the 5 year old motocrossers, you can just see they have no fear whatsoever. Of course you don't truely understand the idea of death at that age

The fear of death really holds you back in riding ability

Have you ever tried killing a 5 year old? It's harder than you think...

As soon as my first kid shows interest in riding a bike, i will be buying them a little pocket bike and teaching them to ride it. Looks like so much fun, i wish they were around when i was a kid.

Hehehe, a scooter with an extended swingarm. Those are bloody great, cheers mate

[Brian d'marge]

some of em were younger than five, I have a 2 yr old and his legs arent strrong enough to cycle , but there were a few there who looked younger than 5
There were 2 young girls as well ( and they didnt half move !~ )

The last time I was there, you could see this young lad through his Helmet , the face on him was fearsome !!!!

He highsided slid to a halt , ran over to the bike , did a Hayden , and finished 2nd or third

They also had the Jap equiv of buckets there. Though these things are full on race bike with 12 inch wheels
these are designed for the 12 yr olds ( around that age ) and I tell you ! sod watching Motogp ,,,these boys made Toni Elias , look like a beginner ( well they didnt Quite back it in like Eilias did ,,but they did some hard over taking moves!!!!

I have a few more pics ...I just wasnt sure ,,, if they were boring or not !
