Watched the juniors going round the track here at this weekend's meet and couldn't believe the age of some of them. 3 and 4 year olds both girls and boys!! It certainly looks like quad racing has a bright future here in Australia.
Congrats on the first moto, how did you fair?

I started at 4 so did my younger brother. The other brother (youngest) started at 3 on a LEGENDARY LT50 and a yamaha PW50 2 wheeler, he was haulin a$$ on the PW before he could run without falling over.  But having said that, I'm 16 and still cant run without falling over

I started riding quads at 10. My first ride was a piece of S#@T chinese quad. It only lasted 6 months till it had a bent and cracked frame and destroyed piston.
