Things are finally starting to sink in. I only learned half of these the hard way. Don't use the front brake in sand. Look ahead. Logs are for rolling over, not stopping at. Don't fight the bike. Standing works so much better. And riding on the 'Big Track' is a BLAST!
What did you learn this summer?

YAY you finally moved to the big track huh? Sweet! You should do the Red Bud Grass race this year..I don't think I can, my clutch is pretty much smoked. I could ride Phil's 250 though...just hard to share a bike.
Anyway, congrats on the new learnings! :cool: I wish I could have rode with you at Martin this year, but super busy getting the new house ready to actually LIVE in!

There's some pain, not too bad though.
We haven't finished the big track yet.. But we do have a pretty sick 1/2 mile GP style track.
I rode it for the first time today. It was a blast.
I had my 450 apart for a couple of months, the valves were shot. Just got them fixed up last week and couldn't resist the temptation to ride.
All in all it was good. No injury's but I am very tired and sore.
Gonna try again tomorrow. ;)
I have some helmet cam, but I'm just too tired to post it right now.
