Hey guys,
I want to race and be great at it. My issue, I am 25 almost 26 years old and this is a young mans sport. I began riding when I was 9 years old. I always loved it as a kid and would ride for hours by myself. I have always wanted to race but my parents thought it was too dangerous. My father's boss's son was good racer and was hurt wile racing 80's so because of his injury's it wasn't an option for me. Here it is 15 years later and I still have the desire for it I had as a kid. Now with a full time job, 2 houses and the stress that comes with being an adult, I still want to race and be great at it. I am a little worried about up keep on a bike. I want a 4 stroke but 2 strokes are cheaper in a few ways money is tight. Atleast until I get back into practice. I would love to practice and race with my ultimate goal being reaching national's at loretta lynn's.
What do you guys think, am I crazy? Should I just be a fan? 2 stroke or 4? practice tips before race? I want to hear everyones thoughts. I really appreciate it!
