Having fun on electric bikes at kart track racing tracks. There's great potential in electric plus it's not incorporated. Builders can innovate in any direction.

Hi SoSauty
Only 60 days until the next SoCal Motor Bicycle Race at Grange track.
You are bringing your set of flags? Grange has a few flag sets and we
are going to need them all as the course is longer with more turns than
Willow Springs.
Hope that you will help out with the scoring again this race and with
figuring out the eBike class. There is a generator to charge your batteries
and even a scale so you ebikers can weigh your bikes......
How do you like my avatar of the track?

A rather appapro avatar. Have flag set will travel. Also there's a green and black flag in the set now. My bike weighs 53-55lbs depending on batt pack. Could be fun to weigh though. Plan to process scoring forms and directions Friday. I'll e-mail 'em to ya. Also plan to bring a sort of charge station, a not so large shelf to keep chargers out of the dirt and 3-4 bike rack with shade.
Hmm, I'm still browsing and thinking of a new avatar.

This race coming up @ Grange looks interesting. I used to live near In the High Desert and would ride my quad on the weekends and stop and watch supermoto and carts racing there. Are you the owner? My Son and his used to play soccer together In Silver Lakes. The 22nd is my Bday. We may take a drive up and see what motorized bicycle racing is all about.

Hey ConcretePumper,
Don't know so much about the area, I'm over in Bakersfield. Not even a race track owner. Wonder what it costs to have a track built, 2 million?
Come on by. Motored bikes is just taking hold, the racing events got started over around Tucson. It's still unincorporated, lots of potential for hobbyist to tap into, not too many regulations, kinda basic, not so expensive and lots of fun.
A few folks have extra motored bikes and have been known to offer rides. You'll be hooked!
See 'ya,
Will

Spectators are only $10 at the gate and your son is free if he is
16 or under.
Free camping Friday and Saturday night and say Hi if you make it.

Sounds like fun. We will try and make it. No racing though. My bike is a POS compared to what will be there. The land around there is cheap. But I bet insurance on that place is a killer! I actually rode my quad on the track before it was paved. Lol. Since then I always thought it would be funny to join (uninvited) a supermoto race on my quad. Just for a lap or 2 then make a run for the gate. Maybe not. Funny thought though.

Yea I used to ride quads there often. We always would stop for a rest along the west wall and watch if there was a race. The pocket bikes are fun to watch. $10 is doable since all 4 kids are still under 16.
Never have paid to camp there and never will. We have been camping by the big pile of rocks (near stupid walmart whse.) since the early 80's.
