On Wednesday 4th August, British Superbike riders Tommy Hill, James Ellison and Gary Mason will be at Bridge Motorcycles in Exeter. The event starts at 4pm and goes on into the evening. As well as meeting the BSB riders, there will be photo opportunities, signings plus your chance to win tickets to ...

Don't know if you guys have seen, but James Toseland is going to be at Bridge on Saturday.

Anyone planning on going?

Thanks for the comments guys. You can arrange to hire bikes at indoor tracks in Cheddar and Hullavington. It works very similar to hiring go karts and you can do all sorts of racing - grand prix, endurance etc. So it would be possible for you to do a SWB day mini moto racing! Let me know if you need...

Hi guys So, some of you may know I race mini moto's and I thought I'd share of few photo's of my bike and also post up a video of me in action at Round 3 of the Championship. http://www.parkpreview.co.uk/rt2/rt2-finished1.jpg http://www.parkpreview.co.uk/rt2/rt2-finished2.jpg http://www.parkpreview...

Ideal, thanks Roy your photos are much better than mine!

So I've started to rebuild my mini moto race bike from the ground up replacing all the broken bits etc. I had some nasty 'digs' in the frame like this: http://www.parkpreview.co.uk/mm/frame0.jpg So I spoke to Roy and he said he could sort it. I cannot recommend him enough. Fantasic service, excellen...

Your work looks superb, I've sent you a message through eBay - but if you don't get it let me know and I'll message you through here. I've got a few jobs I could send your way...

Well, I had a big part in getting mini moto's at Raceworld and although they currently don't run mini moto sessions they haven't ruled it out in the future. So if I know there's more people out there in the South West still riding, I'll start up the mini moto club south West again. When you're a clu...

At Cheddar they do hire bikes, so you can give it a go without splashing out on a bike...

I'm getting back into the sport after 2-3 years off.

Any other mini moto racers on here from Devon/Cornwall/Somerset?

I'll be riding at Cheddar and Hullavington mostly but it's a bit dull when you're the only 'local' into the sport.

Any others out there?

Hi all,

I passed my bike test back in March and go out 3-4 times a week on the bike. Whilst I always see other bikers, I'm currently a bit of a billy no mates when it comes to ride outs.

Anyone fancy getting together for a ride over the Bank Holiday weekend? Sunday perhaps?

I'll be there on Saturday at some point...

Test rode a Suzuki SV 650 and a Kawasaki ER6F this morning. The ER6F was not for me at all, it felt so small and I'm only 5ft 11. The SV 650 was brilliant though, nice riding position, very torquey, comfortable. It's a 2003 bike and is the full fairing version. Is there anything in particular I shou...

Just a quick update from me - I passed my test this morning - wooohoooo!!!!

Got 2 minors, but I'm very happy with the result. So now it's time to find a bike and get out on the road!

Passed my theory test today with 50 out of 50 and 64 out of 77 for the hazard perception, so not bad at all.

Only 2 and a bit weeks to wait until my 'real' test. Been looking at a few alternative bikes to the originals I suggested, what are your opinions on the Kawasaki ER-6, 2005 model?
