Looks like fun and I will go watch it but I would want a slightly more dirtworthy scooter like and adv 150 or Zuma 125 to ride it.

Rich and I went to this on Saturday.  I thought it was a blast!

Some highlights:

Some small bore bikes on display.

They had a small track set up for those interested in a track day.  Cost was $25 for a 20 minute session.  The bikes had to be under 200cc but there was no tech inspection and gear requirements were easy to meet.



After watching for a while I decided to go for it!

On my Scooter ???

There was a Gymkhana course but it sucked and almost no one rode it.  I tried it but like I said, it sucked.

There was a stunting demo.

And a place those who just wanted to practice their stunting skills and have fun.

The creekside classic was a hoot to watch.

They had a 1/32 mile drag strip.  No entry fee, tech inspection or gear requirements except for a helmet.

I raced Rich on his TnT135 a couple of times, a kid on a small dirtbike and a Honda ADV150.  After winning all those races I got smoked by a gal on a heavily modified Grom.

The hill climb was a riot.  Most of the riders were on street bikes with street tires but there were a few tiny dirt bikes.

They made it as hard as possible by putting this log at the start.

They did some parade laps at the end.  I took a few pics while riding my scooter.



This bike looks like a full size Kawasaki Sport bike but I think is was actually a custom bike with a scooter drivetrain.



As you can see, protective gear requirements were strictly enforced :o
