Box Bob’s wheelie on
Box Bob’s wheelie on the MOTOREX scooter Cool ideas Sixteen-year-olds see certain things very differently from “adults”. Bob van Tulder, son of the owner of MOTOREX partner ARIETE in the Netherlands, is no different. What looks impossible to most people is just a new challenge to Bob, who kept practicing on his 50 cc scooter… …until he could sustain a perfect wheelie over an extended distance. His fellow students were impressed – the girls especially. In the Netherlands, young people are permitted to ride 50 cc scooters and motorbikes from age 16. Bob has been a motocross fan since age six and is an enthusiastic marshal at the Lierop Motocross Grand Prix.
