"Along with the go-cart, mini bikes were first made out of spare parts found around the garage.
They were first popularly used as "pit bikes" for drag racers to scoot around in the pits during races in the late 50's to today.
They were very useful for this purpose, as they could maneuver very well in the tight pit roads, and they could fit in about the
same space as a small bicycle in a trailer or pickup. As racers brought and used them around their neighborhoods, children
thought they were cool and started building their own.
A mini bike, also known as a pocket rocket or rocketskate, is a miniaturized version of a motorcycle. Mini bikes usually use two
stroke motors that power a chain to turn the rear wheel, although electric-powered models are also available. The 2-stroke motor
produces a loud, whining buzz and a suffocating cloud of smog as exhaust. These features, along with the minibike's tiny size,
mean that mini bikes are almost never street-legal.
Due to their high speed and design, the rider must take extra care when riding mini bikes. Even with an adult rider, mini bikes
can attain speeds of over 40mph where serious injury can occur from misuse. Hence riders should wear adequate safety equipment
at all times, including a helmet, elbow pads, kneepads, gloves and shoes. Mini bike riders should be equipped as the rider in the
picture who is wearing adequate head and knee protection, as well as a pair of sturdy jeans to prevent chaffing."

I am writing to you in behalf of your Heavenly Father. He is seeking you like a lost sheep. You remember
the Bible story? It is about a shepherd who has 100 sheep. But when he brings the sheep home one night, one is missing.
He then leaves the 99 sheep and goes out into the wilderness until he finds that lost sheep.
In this parable the shepherd goes out to search for the one lost sheep-the very least that can be numbered.
So if there had been but one lost soul, Christ would have died for that one.
