Parking lot mini-practice isn't the solution to every riding barrier, but it can be helpful for some things. This rider took about three minutes to get his knee down for the first time. Usually, riders who do this are able to get their knee down on the track immediately afterward. For many, it's simply a matter of breaking the ice, feeling what it's like, and then going right to it.

Dragging a knee isn't evidence of riding skill, but it does have its uses. For one, it gives the rider a reference for how far they're leaned over and allows them to feel changes in lean angle while cornering.

Occasionally, I'll meet with a rider in SoCal and help them with this. There's also someone in the SoCal area who specializes in this type of training. DM me if you'd like a referral.

Fireworks. Dynamite. Burnt cars, motorcycles, campers. It was a wild scene. I took this photo in I think 1985 when I was a teenager. In the back was the "animal pit" which you entered at your own risk. Does anyone else have photos from that era?

Well good enough to win 90 MotoAmerica races...

This is a basic walk-through of The Ridge in Shelton Washington.
