Then the French thing came up, so we could still race. The only race that I have ever done outside of the country was the Motocross of Nations, so I did not even know what to expect. I did not even know how the format ran or how things were going to work out. I do not know the whole rule behind that.

also put this stupid name on these bikes -

OEM motorcycle makers have Zero interest in making E bikes -
OEM MC companies build engines - not motors -

I have zero doubt that the big MC makers have made agreement to Not make e motorcycles -

this will work for short time but when I see Big Smiles and Laughter from riders after their ride
not making these bikes is not going to work for long -
