rider

[Hondaman_06]

ok there's this girl i know well she's my neighbor and anyways she's really into dirbtikes. She just started riding a XR100 which is a great bike for her to learn on. Anyways she seems to have a confidence problem and i'm always tryin to give her pointers on what to do i mean it seems like she wants to learn but she's afraid she'll get hurt or something. I try to tell her that wrecking goes along with riding and it's gonna happen. So basicly what i'm trying to say here is what could or should i do to try to get her doing new things that she is going to need to learn before she moves up into bigger bikes? I've tried everything i know to do to convinece her to do these things but she won't do it. So what should i do?

don't try to convince her to do anything, she'll do it when she's ready. obviously she is still into dirtbiking so it's not like she's bored with the sport, maybe she's happy with just riding to have fun. trying to persuade someone to do something not only is dangerous but also isn't very fun. i mean, instead of riding and having a good time, she's listening to you tell her to do this or that. let her go at her own pace.
