If you're not a pocket bike enthusiast, or if you have never bought a minibike, the term "super pocket rocket" may confuse you. For starters, the term "pocket rocket" doesn't apply to just any minibike - there are minibikes after all that aren't motorized, and are just good old-fashioned pedal cycles. These rockets generally refer to miniature motorized bikes - or mini motos, are they are sometimes known - which are built especially for racing and/or display. And far from being redundant, a super pocket rocket is more than an ordinary mini moto. If you still aren't sure how a big pocket rocket would differ from a regular mini motorbike, here are some of the most common and most[..]

One of the biggest blows to boyhood dreams is the constant project over-runs, or the "yeah that's the gokart my Dad and I are working on...it sits in the corner over there!" You can tell the disappointment in the son's voice and he looks away in mild disgust. "Dad, you promised we would have the go kart running this summer. It has been all summer vacation and nothing has happened!" This scenario can easily happen, and will easily happen if you have any sort of family life. Let's face it priorities in life are: family, Church, food, vacation, lawn care, swimming, tennis, basketball, baseball, soccer....gokarts...? Go Karts will come last place, because they are a luxury item. To a kid[..]

the attractive things about owning a pocket bike is the adrenaline rush that speed can bring on, feeling the wind whip around you whether it is alone on a private track or in the middle of a race. Pocket bikes were built to race, they were built for speed. A pocket bike is a miniature version of a Grand Prix moter bike, so this makes sense. These bikes can be customized to go 50, 60, or even 70 miles per hour!! The current world record, in fact, is at 72 mph. So what happens if you start your bike, and it just won’t hit those speeds you know it should be? What if your pocket bike is going too slow? There are a few basic steps you can take to try and locate the problem yourself, and[..]

Snowmobile racing is a kind of motor-sport played on snow and ice. Basically, a snowmobile is a terrain vehicle driven by one or two rubber tracks, or belts, with skis for navigation. Often, it is referred to as a snow scooter, a sled, or a snowmachine. Snowmobiles are raced on snow and ice and require no road or trail. People who drive snowmobiles are called snowmobilers. Snowmobiling revitalizes the body and mind, and hence, a snowmobiler is fairly relaxed at the end of a day of snowmobiling.

Howard Roper from Roxbury, Massachusetts, got tired of pedaling his bicycle over long distances. Taking months and months to draw diagrams and thinking just how he could make a steam engine that would be small enough to relieve the pressure from his legs and feet as he traveled from place to place on dirt roads and paths. Finally in 1867, Roper succeeded; it was powered by burning coal to create the steam. This bike has been displayed in many fairs and circuses over the years. In 1885, Gottlieb Daimler and[..]

It is big in China, Japan, Europe, etc., but the United States has been slow to adapt to this new technology. Recently, however, more and more people are inquiring. Last year 23 million were sold worldwide, and the number is expected to double by 2012, says Electric Bikes Worldwide Reports, a biennial publication tracking the industry. In the US my experience is that this is usually (but not always) a different crowd. One that is more middle-aged or older. I recently worked with a 90 year young man to get him setup with an electric bike that was safe and comfortable to him. These are people that want to ride, but may need an assist in the wind or up a hill. Or, they are simply fed up[..]

These scooters are propelled by the rider rather than a battery or engine. This works great for kids as they get introduced to scooters at a safe pace while still giving them value as they can go from place to place at a faster pace than walking. In addition, and probably the main reason these scooters are so popular, is that you can do tricks on them and can be taken into schools and buildings because they are foldable. This means they can be stuffed in a locker or kept in a backpack until needed later. By far the most popular kick[..]
