[QUOTE="oilspot, post: 1140134, member: 72261"] I'm really new to riding. I just picked up a 87 rmx250. I live in the desert and am able to ride from my house. A lot of riding tends to feel pretty natural for me and I'm taking my time learning riding techniques. As far a riding on sand, it scares me. I"ve heard people mention that they had to be taught to ride on sand, and then it was no problem. The only thing I've heard about sand riding is that you've got to stay on the gas and keep the front end light. If there are any other tips please let me know. I don't want to just take off hauling ass through the sand learning lessons at high speed. I would try avoiding sand for a while but around here it's not going to be possible, and it's hard to tell the sand from the hard packed ground sometimes. I'm 34 and have two kids to take care of so any tips on how to keep from foolishly taking myself out of commision would be greatly appreciated!!! (My wife will appreciate it also) [/QUOTE]
