Do do do Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Ive found riding on my own is good for honing what you've learnt, and / or learning your own way of doing whatever your learning at the time. Once u can do something well, just push one better. And try putting a thead up for people in or around your area! You never know your luck.

matthew_coggan Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 I think you have done well to stick with it i used to ride with one of my mates and he stoped, so i just ended up stopping to. So i prais you for sticking with it and doing it by yourself Good man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I am ze best Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 I cant see how so many ride on their own. I hate riding on my own. Never do it. The only time I ever do it is outside my house sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Yeah I agree, Im much braver when Im with others, I get shit scared up high on my own haha! I cant see how so many ride on their own. I hate riding on my own. Never do it. The only time I ever do it is outside my house sometimes.

onzacomp09 Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 i prefer to ride on my own or with someone who is not as good as me because u spend more time riding other than watching people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WIGAN Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 mosty go on group rides to be honest but sometimes i prefer to ride on my own its just like i feel more relaxed i dont have to try and impress or compete with anyone and you can just chill and i normally ride better but it does get really boring on your own.

davey1991 Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 I've almost always ridden alone until recently, although i've been in and out of MTB'ing in general for about 8-9 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

razeRvit Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 I ride by myself all the time. In my area there aren't really much people that ride trialbike. When I ride motorcycle trial then I ride with more people, that's my main sport Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexxRogers Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 I ride by myself pretty much everyday after school, then go out with people at the weekend, this means I can learn things during the week, and show them off at the weekend, so all in all, works out lovely!

soupdragon*** Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Its even worse if you live at two houses! One day you have your bike...the other, you dnt!
