One of our friends sister and husband race in the masters division, they are both 52/3. The wife had a pretty bad accident last year and broke some stuff. She thought she was going to be done, but the bug got her again when she recovered. They are riding bikes with the 24" wheels.

I mostly just rode them and hooned around as a younger adult, did some racing and whole lot of jumping things. I owned so many bikes it is hard to recall all of them. CW, Cycle Craft, Redline, Mongoose, Haro...my favorite was the team edition Patterson I came across. They were super rare and very sturdy. I broke more than one frame in my day and that bike was a tank. It got stolen from out front of a store while I was inside. The school badass stole it, I knew it, and didn't want to confront him or call the police...he was a vicious ****. I later found out that Boss was being welded by one of the guys previously involved in Patterson and picked one of those up. It was a bit longer in the front and the wheelbase made for a bike that handled super well on the ground and in the air.
