    And just my luck the GoPro battery dies before the end...

    We would like to thank at least one person in particular for a, um, contribution...

    Great video! Not as good as the one taken on Buckman Springs by a sportbike rider that passed while George and I were waiting. :ohno02: By the time I got home I had been posted/identified and had a ton of messages. What a FUN DAY!!!

    Link?

    It's on Facebook-you'll have to friend me there to see it :P


  2. Would you want to meet tomorrow after work in Ramona? There's so much there to practice on, and I would be happy to work with you. I have been teaching by brother a lot after a 30 year hiatus from dirt.

    Weekdays are no good for me.

    I don't know any of these places y'all keep mentioning-I'll do some Googling tonite. Still cautious of going solo,though


  3. I appreciate the offer. I really wanna do the 28th Noob ride, but I believe that's where we went(or at least similar riding) the day I crashed and I wanna be confident. But it's not safe to go by myself. So I'm kinda stuck in dirt limbo,so to speak. I don't feel I can sign on for that one unless I get some focused practice in first.

    I'll hitch a ride anytime you're willing to let me!


  4. Thanks Bikeslut. My specific areas of concern are:

    1)Rear braking. I don't use it often on the street and with MX boots on it's a bit more challenging.I just need to practice what I learned at Supermoto School til I get a better feel.

    2) Downhill-need to make that less scary-just by doing.

    I don't know these areas-Lark and whatnot. I don't need constant supervision,so if there's a good area to drop me off and let me play for awhile while you ride for real and come back to check on me,that would be fine,too.

    I am open to suggestions


  5. Here's my ideal: Meet at Carl's Jr. 7:30-8, easy ride to Pine Valley. Major's for breakfast(I'll buy :smile_anim: ), then I'd like to go to the cul-de-sac and practice my dirt skills. Need someone patient so I can work on some specific things. I'll need frequent stops and pauses, to ask stupid noob questions,and a wee bit of encouragement. Probably will wanna ride certain spots repeatedly until fears are conquered and skills honed.

    I figure this should take 1-2 hours and intend to be back home lunch(ish)

    Anyone?
