Special thanks to Teresa from SEPRA, that's her bike I'm riding. And, the portion of the video that has me on the bike was shot by one of their members/racers, Stacey....he's the guy working on the bike in the background. He did a great job. It was a lot of fun.

The folks at SEPRA could tell you more if you are interested....they were an awesome bunch of folks, and they sure have a good time.

I think its more of a club than a leauge. They told me you can get into competitve pocket bikes pretty easily...doesn't take too much cash compared to other motorsports. Infact, the leathers and helmet can cost more than the bike itself. There are bikes that are less than $500 bucks that are pretty fast I'm told.
