Inspiration for the Beginning Rider!!

#1 Unread post by JackoftheGreen »

When I busted out my old harddrive camcorder to do the CatCrap review, I found some old footage still kicking around on it from when I was first learning to ride 18 months ago. I thought it'd make a great comparison video, so here it is.

Com'n now, couldn't have been that long ago. (-:

I had no idea I still had this footage, LoL! Motorcross helmet and all, fidgeting my way through that U turn. The day before we took our road test for our full licenses, we went out to that same parking lot with some sidewalk chalk and a diagram of the state course, chalked it all in and rode it over and over and over and over...

That seems so long ago, but I guess it was less than a year. How time flies in the wind eh?
