Was not called Hare Scramble
The history section contains the following non-sequitur; the activity became known as "hare scrambles", said to have originated in the phrase, "a rare old scramble"
Hare is not the same as rare. The term 'hare scramble' is modern and American. In the UK it was called 'Scrambling' then later 'Motocross'Dean1954 (talk) 09:55, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
