![]() ![]() It is extremely important to me that everything we do here at Taco Motor Sports is done in the spirit of the time period in which these were built the 60’s and early 70’s. Things fell into place and the mini bike gods smiled down on me and well, here we are, Taco is back in Southern California and we are having a blast! Everyone knew that it had to come back to Southern California, its birthplace, if it were going to have a chance for revival. The company was in Texas at the time and wasn’t doing much. When the opportunity presented itself that TACO MINI BIKES could be bought, I did everything I could to see that I could get my hands on this ICON of the mini bike world. They are great memories, which will still talk about to this day. It was typical that on any day the usual guys would be down riding until dark or dinner which ever came first. I had supportive parents and loved the fact that I enjoyed mini bikes and motorcycles. I was like every other boy of that time, I couldn’t wait to get out of school and go down to the local field and ride with my cousin Ken Wilson and friends Chris Hernandez, Steve Cipres and all the local guys. Like a lot of you I grew up in the 60’s here in Southern California where I had a wonderful childhood. ![]() The Spirit of the 1960’s – Taco Mini Bikes. ![]()
