iris123 Posted September 10, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2021 Just noticed this Flat Track meeting on at one of my local speedway tracks soon. Looks quite interesting. Especially the Supergirl and Electric classes 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted on her possibly a year ago about some moves. Towns and cities banning loud motorbikes at the weekend. Now Paris has even gone to a 30kmh limit in most areas, and noise was one of the factors. It is getting hard for private people, so a recreational sport will find itself under even more pressure and especially one that is only watched by a small strange section of society has no real pressure working in its favour You could say it is even less necessary in Denmark as most of their tracks, possibly all are outside residential areas. Often well away Seems noise traps are going to be set up in Paris and 7 other French cities from this November Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it equipped with a laser cannon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vince Posted December 22, 2021 Report Share Posted December 22, 2021 That MX bike above looks incredible and it isn't expensive compared to the current top of the range bikes either. I've picked up my electric trials bike and am incredibly happy with it. Probably somewhere about the same sort of power as a 200cc petrol trials bike but incredibly easy to ride and virtually silent. We had it out playing about 20 yards from a school where my Granddaughter was having a horse riding lesson and the horse never took the blindest bit of notice. More to the point nor did any of the horsey people at the yard apart from a couple who came over to show some interest. My horses don't take any notice of it either and if it was 40 yards away in the woods you would never know it was there. Takes motorcycling into the same sphere as horse riding for me, the opportunity to ride every day locally without complaints. Big difference to last year with the flat tracker when I was able to ride just 8 times in the whole year. Might not take over motorsport but will certainly compliment it for many. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
