Mid-Ohio Time

The crack (or is that cracked?) ITSA trials lay-out crew is on it's way to Mid-Ohio to set up the AHRMA National Trial for AHRMA. We think that this is the tenth year for the Mid-Ohio trials. The crew has had the honor of being the only crew to lay out the trials there.

But, the truth be known, we're really going for the swap meet, beer, and BBQ!

Stay tuned next week for reports and some wild film, if we can figure out where we left the camera.....

New Nubbie Mobile


On July 3rd work started on the assembly of the New Nubbie Mobile. A highly modified TY175 Yanaha. The Nubster had his frame ready for assembly and we had the wheels and TY250 forks finished.

Looks pretty good with the red and white paint scheme and new, shinny, sharp IRC tires. I especially like the Yamaha tuning fork tank graphics. Very nice Nub! The fenders are ready to install also....but Nub has to bring over the rubber grommets.
The engine is being treated to a complete rebuild along with an electronic ignition, crank mod(new and very beneficial mod), porting, head mod, Boyesens and more. We are even going to install an alloy WES exhaust. Can't wait to ride this one!

What's that Skatetruck? Make sure we get some of the latest B&J stickers on it.....on where? The skid pan! That way we'll be sure to see them often.....

Well, actually we can't wait to watch the Nubster! Bet there will be a few topics for the blog there!
