I thought you said you had checked out the user group!!

We do, and we went last night Smile

Korn: is it worth moving this thread to the mini moto forum?

DUG: how to you get them to the track? Car? and which one do you go to? Cos london might be closer for some people than Swindon

Not much, about 30kg max i reckon. You can just pick them up etc. And the front is very very light when your riding it Laughing

Ermmm, about 2foot 6 long maybe, hopefully we will have some video (G Smile ) up soon from last night, or just some stills. But they are not very big at all.

how cool, so you could actually put the damn thing in a back pack and carry it round in town...lol.
Providing the backpack is quite big.
I see what you mean when you say you can just pick it up.

25 quid for 3x 10 minute sessions

they give you sliders, which requires a 5 pound deposit if i remember

and you can use their helmets if you like as well

Hi

There was one in MCN about 7 years ago. It had an absolutely massive rear numberplate as the owner said that he got pulled up most times he took it out and had made sure that it was totally road legal.

It actually doesnt take much to put a bike on the road. Lighting wise you can get away with a day time MOT and just have a brake light. Think on a bike of under 50cc you can even get away without a speedo

Trouble is, would you fancy riding a bike on the road where you had to look up to see a cars wing mirror

All the best

Keith

Yeh if you see someone riding one in comparison to a car you barely come up to the top of the cars bonnet, and if you got in a fight with a car you certainly aint going to win, would be funny wasting the little scooters and nova guys though i think they'd all get quite a shock

drunkstudent: noticed you are in Surrey.

Was just wondering if you knew of any places other than Winners that do open minimoto nights?.. ie nearer to London, as it's a bit far for some of the london peeps to get to Swindon.

Its straight down the M4 for them as well, just for a bit longer Sad

Maybe we could contact them, and get enough people interested, they would do it elsewhere as well, like Reading, or Londond or somewhere better Cool
