Learn THIS and You Will Be a Faster Rider!

Yeah it blows people away when they find out how many hours I ride in a year. I am not a pro but I do race often. I also find that HOURs don't mean practice. If you ride trails slowly for 6 hours... you don't improve... If you ride the same boulder for 2 hours to learn the double blip... Now you have 2 hours AND the ability to double blip anytime you want. So seat time is key, but practice time is the real secret sauce. You gotta get to the point that you are not using your brain... your just doing. You don't think to double blip you just do it. Free up the brain and train the body. BTW I put 200 hours in each year... and I am what Americans call a B or A class rider. (depending of the course type) So a pro level rider is puting in waaaay more then that and they are learning specific stuff and putting it in the bank.

Couldn’t agree more! Thanks for the insight man!

Damn work getting in the way of getting more seat time....

[@notsoupmoto]

The struggle is real :(

I twisted and sent it once when I was a teenager and learned pretty quickly that i didn't want to do that again. Now I'm trying to do what you're saying and learn techniques while teaching my son at the same time.

Might I ask what happened

[@RitterRundown]

@Rccarsoncrack trying to jump a small creek high to low side and about made sure I never had kids.

Hoping to get some good hours in the seat this season coming up. I probably only logged about 12 or so hours last season (I did only get my bike like a month before the snow came) but this year I’m going for it!

[@notsoupmoto]

that's awesome! I'm gonna try to do the same. been riding about once a week on average, but definitely want to up it to maybe two times a week and try to ride for longer when I'm actually out. Been using strava to track rides which is a cool little thing to review afterwards too!

My prediction engine needs a tune up. ☺ "To become old and wise, we must all survive young and stupid." Stay safe out there!

I agree with you because I'm thinking back to the day I went to look at my wr250f when I got there and the guy show me the bike and I looked everything over and the guy started the bike and he hoped on his new bike and we went for a test ride around his neighborhood . I had know idea where we where going or what was around the next turn but I was shifting gear up and down going up and down hills with out even thinking where all the controls where at and that was the very first time I ever rode that bike but thanks to all the years riding my ttr 125 and other dirtbikes my body know where everything was

[@notsoupmoto]

Yep! That muscle memory kicking in!
