Has anyone ever heard or seen the English National 125GPs - Most of the riders are 14! Surely the breeding ground for MotoGP!
 
Wow, i'll have to google it for a look!

They're older than 14. The youngest rider there I can find is 17?

Look at www.doublevisionracing.com, this proves my point.
Even better, Google for Robbie Stewart.
 
That's only 2 of the riders though, still it looks good and probably worth watching!
 
Breeding ground for motoGP? In England? Ellison, Davies and that new guy in 125`s? If you wanna find the real breeding ground for motoGP I suggest you poms head south. When you see a big sign that says "Welcome to El Spain" You`ll be in the real breeding ground for motoGP.

No it is 3 riders by the way, the DOUBLE vision racers are twins! Afraid it isn't on the telly you would have to go to a circuit :-(

They do about 130mph cos they are 2-strokes

I didn't think 14 year old's where allowed to race things that went that fast untill they got their driving license?

I think you need some sort of racing license to do it. By the way, I think they might show the races on Sky Sports
