In my opinion and in the opinion of many, any adult who allows small
children to race motorcycles is encouraging reckless endangerment and
more, and under the right circumstances, child abuse charges could be
brought.

How about organized youth football, soccer, baseball, hockey or golf? * *All

and correctly sized dirt bike, I am not sure it's any more dangerous than
the other activities I mentioned.

There's a possibility of injury with many sports activities, of course,
but adding in the element of motorization, speed, gasoline, vehicles
that might weigh several hundred pounds, and bumpy courses, and the
resulting injuries can be very serious.

I don't believe "tackle" football should be played until high school. In
all the years I played "organized" baseball in New Haven, I never saw a
serious injury, and that includes Little League, Pony League, Babe Ruth
League and Industrial League. Lots of bumps and bruises, strained
muscles, et cetera, but no one was knocked unconscious or suffered a
debilitating spinal column injury.

Where are all the motorsports? If you read Kayaking and Motorcycle
news groups as do I you would understand it is more of a political
fight than anything else when it comes to motorbikes.. It is as much
of a fraud, and perpretrated by almost as many as the Y2K and Global
Taxing scams.. Seems it always leads to someones pocket..
