Hi New From NY. Well I am not so new, call me Pop. I rode back in the 60's, mostly track. I am know searching for a midget track bike for my Grandson. Some know what a midget track bike is and some do not. No different than a full size track bike but the proportions are smaller and the frame is made to use 24" wheels. If anyone kn ows of one, I would appreciate the info. Thanks Pop

And what bicycle are you searching for - for yourself?

We got a bunch of guys in the 50+ forum who rode in the 40's, 50's and 60's. Hop on a bike and find yourself there.

Hi to everyone, I was not sure how the forum works. I was contacted and told I have 3 reponses. I guess I will answer all at once. I have not done any riding , in many years. I had stayed with the sport for a number of years, while working with midget track riders, at Kissena track. For myself my heart just was not in it any longer. I guess that can happen when you climb to the top and then , for reasons beyond your control, you fail. I am only looking for a midget trtack for my Grandson, for myself I still have my equipment I rode . I have ,two, a track and a road Ephgrave. I also have a quite large set of rollers that were made for me in 1961. Thanks for the responces, Pop
