Whoooo Hooooo!! Check out all that two-stroke iron. The best part is that it is at a race in 2010!

2010 is the return of the two-stroke!

Hi John
  I was pleasantly surprised at how many Two Strokes were at the race. It was the most so far this year. I did'nt have enough time to take pictures of them all. With Jake racing I ran out of time. I told all of them about the web site and about project two fifty. A couple knew about Two-Stroke.com. You would think they all had been to the web site by their stories of why they were riding a two stroke.  Most said it was more fun to ride the two-stroke and cheaper to maintain.

I notice that one kid has the same bike as mine, a 2001 cr125, I was wondering if you could ask him, how do you make the thing go? It is so frustrating for me.
I'd rather be riding...

Anyone on here got a Gas Gas ?.

I nearly bought one myself but went with the TM.

I don't think you could have gone wrong with either one... (TM or GasGas) both are quality steeds.

I talked to Anthonys dad on the Gas Gas what a great motorcycle! He's been to Loretta's on the gas gas. He is a very good rider. He ran in the Youth 16-24 class and took first place and I think some of the riders were on 450's.

I dont mean to hijack this thread but when I saw the pictures of these fine young people keeping the 2t alive and well I just had to post a few pictures of the apple of my eye, my daughter and her '06 - Cr125.  Now, she is no where near any of these other young people in experience, but she is all about the two stroke and riding till its too dark to see.  She is 16 years old and she rides only 2t's. She's hardly tall enough touch on one side, so she stays in motion : )
We discussed her riding a 2t or the 4t and she said something like, "daddy I dont want to ride one of those pigs, I want ride a real bike, a 2t", words that sang to my heart :D
We finally got the jetting figured out and when she came back from the first ride with the jetting corrected
her eyes were so big, she said, with mud and dirt all over her, this bike is bad fast !
Here are a few pics.

TxTechRedRider stories like that are just so wonderful to hear!! All the best to you and your daughter. It sounds as though you have raised an amazing young lady. My hats off to you!

If you are interested we could do a more in depth story about this young woman and publish it on the main site. Let me know if you're interested.
