    Kids Electric Trials Series in VT

    I have been speaking with a manufacturer of Electric Trials bikes for kids about running a series (4-6 events) this summer - with loaner/rental bikes. I think it's a great low-risk, safety-minded, and low-cost way to introduce and try kids in motorsports.

    I have much more information, but was wondering who from here with young kids would be interested in more info, where I may try to advertise, and any suggestions you guys may have.

    Thanks!

    2006 gasgas txt 300 pro, about 8000 ish new... used by original owner for about 10 hours recreationally, and about the same by myself... Love it, but need rhino funds to help maintain the track.

    priced @ $3,000 ... a small loss to me.

    compare a 2005 @ $4500 and others with crazy pricing here:

    I feel I owe "trials riding" a debt,

    I started off on a TY80 at 8y/o, never competed, but loved that bike and learned so much about riding on it, then on a TY250. Couldn't tell you how many times "that little kid on that skinny bike with a biscuit seat" could get up, over, through, or around and the big burly MotoX men couldn't. It gave me so much confidence and love for all things balanced, feathered, slid and wheelied.

    I'm down here in So. VT, but I will help out or assist with trying to recruit/coach/cheer on anyone with interest in Trials!

    Now... I gotta get me a big boy, proper trials bike again, who has that sweet gasgas?
