Speed Trial

I was thinking of entering the speed trial thingy at the NBR comp on sunday, but was wondering if there is anything i should be looking out for to make it easier/ faster..

Its real hard to explain...I get told, when doing natural, that i should be trying to keep it on two wheels/spend as little time on the rear wheel as possible, and to do it in small controlled hops. This really helped me ride natural better and i enjoy it alot more now aswell.

So now hopefully you can see what i'm asking, has anyone got any tips for this kind of riding??

Its not really something i practise everyday, i try and take my time and only go for things when i am ready normally, so this will be a very different experience for me.

Hope you can see what i am asking (Y) .

Cheers, Aaron.

Well in general natural riding, You really need to have a good trackstand (with no correctional hops) cos on some rocks for example, you won't have enough room to start hopping around. Also natural involved alot of pigeoning (a word? (Y) ) and wheelswapping so you get tried very quickly

Most street riders do natural on the back wheel :angry: :angry: lol

I say practise trackstand, and wheelswaps. Then for the speed trials...umm.... just do everything faster? :P
