[QUOTE="Wraith, post: 831480, member: 19201"] MEW, like Ol'89r said "Most of those eight to ten year old kids that are jumping the big jumps have been riding since they were about four. They didn't just go out and start doing it." Just go at your own pace, take advice from experienced riders and have fun. I just "dove in" when I went to learn how to ride a track. But I had a few reasons. 1) My son had been riding for about a year and had just begun racing, and I felt like crap putting him out there on a track, and I myself had not been on a track myself (and I guess I proved to myself why that night :) ) 2) I got really bored with riding woods (even though I live less than 5 miles from a National Forest, and yes it's legal to ride there :cool: ) so I decided to tryout the track for a little while, and when I set my mind on doing something, I for some reason go all out, that's just my way. After I broke my back it was like starting all over again. I sold that bike since it was setup for the woods, and a got a bike more track friendly. We went to a track every weekend and practiced on something every time, whether it was corners, whoops, jumps, braking, whatever, we practiced. Then we would just play ride with friends. Now I'm to the point where I still can learn more, but I can go to a track and ride my own comfortable pace and do all or most of the obstacals on the track. And that is all that I really wanted to ever acomplish. But I can tell you that I did take a few faceplants to get there ;) [/QUOTE]
