Is there a 2010 race in San Jose, CA

[Sparks66]

I saw somewhere on this post about a race in San Jose, CA. Is there going to be a motorized bike race in 2010? I would like to check it out and perhaps enter and come in last place.

Sparks, you will have to fight me for it that is if the Landshark will finish the whole thing. I would also like to hear about this. I heard something about the employee parking lot at the tank. I can't wait for better weather.

I'm glad to see that their more interest in Motored Bike racing again. I can talk to Don at Pocketbike GP and get him to have a motored bicycle class again. The last time I raced my bike I had to race it against mid bikes and mini bikes. Here's the video. Its pretty funny to watch!

I hope there is a San Jose race i would actually have a chance at going

I'd like to take a trip out there and do some racing. I have never been up that way, sounds like a good excuse for a road trip.

there is a huge flea market in San Jose to you kind find good bikes for cheap

If in Cali then there is much better chance of Ghost0 and Pablo showing up. Taking bikes to Az and running a biz at the same time isn't exactly doable.

There are actually two huge flea markets out here in S.J. The Capitol drive in has one that is pretty large and the Berryessa flea market which is supposed to be one of the largest in the country. So many reasons to have racing here!

I saw Easy Rider's youtube video of the San Jose race. Where are all the spectators? I think it needs more publicity. I thought the race would be more like a race through the streets of San Jose. The city closed the streets and we had Formula 1 racing through downtown. I've got a hundred bucks. Do you think the mayor will close the streets for a hundred bucks? I didn't think so.

Actually Sparks, The spectators are all behind the camera. The other side behind the back straight is rocks and a railroad track. I'll see if I can dig up some pics of the pits.

I found this picture of the track. The section on the bottom right is the pit area. The races include pocketbikes, scooters, go quads and karts.

We will also have a BIG ride setup for 2010 in San Jose.

Sorry, my bad. I'm glad there are spectators. 100,000 I hope.

That is awesome. If you will allow, I would love to join in. So it's a ride and not a race? About how many riders do you expect?

Hey John, I was thinking of a Calaveras ride and have a bbq or picnic at the bottom of Sunol.
That would be cool because of the lack of cars on the road.

 

[Sharksfan]

All of this talk of rides and races her in San Jo. is very cool. I love the fact that there are so many riders here. The track area looks great and I can't wait to see some action.

We can also go over the hill to Santa Cruz.

 

[Easy Rider]

We can do that too but the road we took over the hill had a bunch of cars on it.
...but that was a blast going over the hill into Santa Cruz.

When? We do alot of rides down here, but I would surely cruise up to your neck of the woods for a good one.
