We have a fun event coming up on December 12, 2009 at the Central States Fairgrounds indoor event center in Rapid City, SD. This the third night of racing for the Black Hills Arena Racing motocross series and Strider running bikes is a sponsor of the event. As such, we are going to have a Strider Free Ride event prior to the racing action.
The track will be all prepped and formed into berms, jumps, whoops and all sorts of fun stuff for little kids to play on! It is basically a giant sandbox/playground. Doors open at 5:45pm on Saturday night. Strider riders meet toward the west end of the arena and take to the track at 6:15pm. We’ll play on the track until the racing is set to get underway (usually about 6:45pm). At that time, you can go grab a snack from the concession stand and get to your seat for some FUN action. If you haven’t been to these races, they are really something to see… the big air and speed of the pros is awesome and the pee-wee racers are fun to watch as well. You’ll even be able to cheer for Bode McFarland (#85) in the Pee-Wee 4-6 class… Bode is my first son and was the inspiration for the Strider running bike way back when. If you can’t make it to the event, check back here in a few weeks and we’ll try to have a video posted!
