Remember this epic Moto GP commentary from Catalan GP 2009?? Sounds good as a main stream motorsport commentary. How about some alternative motorsport in near future with new age machines, updated ergonomics, totally different adrenaline rush? Wondering what it might be!?

Yes, we at BikesMedia would like to take our readers through a different machine which has all the capabilities of making it to World Motorsport culture. Budding engineers, entrepreneurs, mechanics, designers, interns etc are working towards achieving this. Before going technical, ever tried balancing on a 2 wheeler!? Something sort of skateboard! Motorized? Hand actuated control! Sounds futuristic !! isn't it? Company named VIVRT motors is coming up with a product named SKATOCROSS, which is first of its kind from all possible angles. Yes first of its kind, we are taking about a patented product. Let's keep this technical only for now.
