I dug this out and put some miles on it last couple of days. We have had a wonderful streak of sun and warm 60's F here in North East Wisconsin! This is a Centrix (same as Jamis Earth Cruiser) that I inherited my Late Brother. I have begun modding it to fit me better.

We finally are getting some decent spring weather so today I jumped on the Kos and went for a ride around town. I was passing by a go kart track and went in for a look. Man were these things fast, not like the rental karts we drove years ago.

A photo taken from the other nights weekly ride. Micargi Tahiti with aftermarket forks and a bag to fill the tank space. About to go for a quick ride now and will try to get some day pics.

As promised…..some diurnal photos. I didn’t put the light in because….it’s broad daylight (kind of figured it was unnecessary)!

Those carts look like a hoot! We do the indoor cart thing once every couple years, and they aren't as fast as the ones you saw, but I still end up with bruises all over from the Gs ... super fun.

I haven’t been in a kart in over 20 years. I did it with my car racing mates regularly and remember the aches and bruises well. There were a couple of outdoor tracks too which were the most fun, especially the one with karts with 2 stroke engines.
