Adventures of a little dirt bike rider

Post by formula400 »

For Christmas my mum got my little lad a Revvi12, it’s got a 100w motor, throttle and 2 speeds, also we got the bigger battery as they can be swapped in 1/2 mins, it’s lasted really well so far, cool little thing.

He’s a whizz on his balance bike, and can pedal with out ever having stabilisers, he picked this up really well, it’s been great fun so far,

Went out Boxing Day, he smashed it.
Then went out last week twice, once I was running behind him, then the last time I was in my MTB following him.

On the 2nd and 3rd day he said his arms hurt from all the bumps, so I’ve spend £53 on a set of forks for it with 20mm travel 😂😂😂😂 (proper revvi ones) in a few months I’ll get the updated motor, 170w 🤪🤪🤪

If we see a new user by the name of Revvi-Ralph, then we know who he is. :D

Got out again today. We did 6.1km, he started to get the asshole towards the end, arms hurting from the bumps.
I’ll get him in the gym to work his guns, lazy 3 year olds.
APart from that loads of fun, loads of mud, 2 crash’s… slipped off in the mud both times, he’s enjoying it so far,

The the start we ment 2 dads and their lads on elections bikes(14 years old or so) he now wants a proper bike 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Anyways I’ll get some videos added once I figure out how to do it with out using Flickr mobile
