At the age of seven “Cowboy” Kenny Bartram (#690) started his career in motorcycles.  After turning professional at the age of fifteen his destiny was clear.  Since that fateful day he has become the winning-est freestyle (10 X-game medals) motocross rider in the world!

Kenny was inspired by his uncle…we have a feeling that his son, Brooks Bartram, will have all the inspiration he’ll ever need! For his 4th birthday his Dad bought him a KTM STRIDER to match his own KTM Motocross bike.

After a little experimentation Brooks is already hitting ramps, albeit a bit smaller than the ones his Dad is jumping off of:

Thinking about warmer weather got us thinking about a stop we made in Denver at the Motocross of Nations on the way back from Interbike last year.  Todd and Kent were representing Sales, Charlie was on hand for some R&D and Ryan (Strider Founder and Chief Enthusiast) wanted to stop because he is a hardcore motocross/racing fan.

Thanks for indulging our walk down memory lane.

Our favorite quote from the Minirider Blurb…When you’re an old man and have no teeth (again) you can say, “I’m so old my first KTM had no motor, and to make it go you had to push it!”

Get out there and have fun no matter what your two-wheeled mode of fun is, and don’t forget to include your little two wheeled Striderers!

Ryan has either been very good this year, or he figured Santa might be too busy to notice the new KTM he bought himself right before Christmas.

The best thing about this amazing motorcycle is that it will match the new KTM Striders that have been tearing up the trails and dirt parks all over the globe!

Here’s a classic view of Smith in the Trailer for ‘On Any Sunday’ (at 51 seconds in)

Malcolm was the Vintage Motorcycle Days Grand Marshall  this year.  This is one of the great events put on by the American Motorcycle Association each year.  Ryan, the inventor and head Strider enthusiast, attended the event and had a chance to visit with Malcolm and even get a few Striders autographed!  We’re donating these bikes and  auctioning them off with all the proceeds going to support the Malcolm Smith Motorsports Foundation which funds an orphanage in Mexico.  Here’s your chance to get your little one riding, own a very unique Strider with a fun back story, and help out some little kids in Mexico who’ve had a really tough start in life.  A perfect way to celebrate the holidays… bid generously, it’s for a great cause.  Click here for the Ebay auction sites: Red Strider and Yellow Strider!

MURRIETA, CA (October 20, 2010) — KTM North America, Inc. and Strider Sports International are excited to announce a licensing agreement for the introduction of the KTM Strider PREbike™.  The KTM Strider PREbike™ is a revolutionary pedal-free bike that enables toddlers as young as 18 months to learn how to ride and balance on two wheels… years earlier than if they used the conventional tricycle or training wheel method.  Most important, Strider™ teaches the skills needed to safely and easily transition to riding both a pedal bike and a Sportminicycle, making the first experience on each much more successful and positive.
