Well not the type of BC that has been discussed lately, but it is a wee bit more dangerous.
Did some playriding today with a few friends. Enjoy.

Side note....anybody know of a decent free movie editor? Windows movie maker kills the quality.

Me too! You should ride a new 450. So much power right off idle it is crazy.

Holy smokes. That looks dangerous. Do you guys know the trail well? I haven't done any dirt biking, but do you counter-steer like in regular motorcycle?

I haven't ridden there a lot in the past year. So I don't really have it memorized. Even if I did the trail changes so much week by week with traffic. One thing that makes a good off road racer is the ability to constantly scan the terrain and look a few turns ahead.
I steer with either the front wheel like normal, but sometimes it is best to use the throttle and steer with the rear end....depends on the conditions and terrain.

Every time you shower down on the throttle it looks like that tunnel effect you see in Star Wars. Good god man it is amazing how fast your reactions must be.

I didn't have my phone when you texted in the a.m. We gotta put a fron tire on. I'm sure it can be done in the parking lot.
P.S. give me about 12 hours notice next time...
