Hey guys, this december I will be competing in an event you've probably never heard of, the Le Minz 24hour scooterthon. It's a 24 hour endurance race... on 50cc scooters :rofl:

Here's a video from InsureMyRide who are running the event.

We're racing for the "Give me 5 for kids" charity (http://www.givemefiveforkids.com.au/) on the 8-9 December in the Gold Coast Parklands, so come down and cheer (or jeer) us on and help the kids!

My team "Half-Cocked Racing" is running in the 'unmodified' class with no sponsors, no funding, and no idea! Follow us on facebook here >>> http://www.facebook.com/HalfCockedRacing

Unfortunately at the last minute all the engine work got left to me, along with preparing the chassis, wheels, brakes and fairings. :sadeyes: I've never built an engine from scratch before so this was a huge learning curve. :eyepop:

Well the race goes from lunchtime tomorrow through to the same time Sunday.
If you're on the coast drop in and say 'Hi'! It's looking like a pretty big event this year so it should be good.
