Had to fix the subject Just got back from a private facility where we
finalized a deal on a new (to us) racebike. I can't say much except this
bike was built by one of the best known race shops in the area for a Pro
rider who raced it in four national events then switched to Honda and
put this thing in the basement with seven and a half hours on it...
Lucky Jess races in "unlimited" classes, cause when she lights this
thing up for the first time at the line with it's Betty engine and FMF
bomber pipe, most of the people in the division we race are gonna' have
to clean their pants


Kids do enough stupid and dangerous stuff without parental
encouragement.

Frankly, I pretty speechless too, when I see a parent encouraging and
facilitating this sort of dangerous and destructive behavior.

I am saddened and amazed.





At 18, our eldest was in the second full year of college. I hope
JustHate's kid doesn't sustain a serious injury or worse while racing,
not just because of the pain, but because her daddy doesn't have the
financial wherewithal to make her whole again. I've read of kids in that
sport who sustain horrific skull and spinal column injuries, which is a
hell of a thing to risk for a sport that will take you nowhere.
