poopipe Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 Any one got any good tips on riding as i have only been riding 6 months and i need some tips Cheersriding through the town centre on a saturday is a great way to improve balance and control at low speeds. The presence of pushchairs and grandmothers adds a little spice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John planet x Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 Ride with better riders. They can teach you stuff, inspire you, and make you wanna beat them eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anzo Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 Practice, practice and practice some more until your hands bleed.Do one thing everyday that you can't do and you'll learn more, quicker.If your on a long ride, carry a bottle of volvic water...does wonders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poopipe Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 LOL very goodsamI'm being serious, sort of. Work on balance all the time you're on your bike - ride along kerbs and roll over benches on your way to the shops / rides / college etc. do manuals everywhere as well.I've only really been riding proper for about a year and I'm finding that my appalling sense of balance is the biggest obstacle I'm facing - it screws you on sidehops cos you can't get a good foundation to hop from, it screws you when climbing stuff cos you cant stay on the backwheel solidly enough to bounce or gap properly after you've pedalled up stuff etc. etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Oliver Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 The more you ride the better you will get. I reckon after School i practice for 3 hrs every night & now we are on holiday 6 hrs a day. Just ride your bike as often as you can & what ever obstacle you ride try &keep your feet on the pedals.

T-BAD Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 (edited) Don't eat yellow snow! sorry i had to write that.But seriosly just ride all the time with people better than you (you'll get pissed off and force your self to improve) thats what i did and now i'm at the same levels of some of the people i ride with!Also watch loads of decent videos and lisen to music that pumps you for riding and you'll improve like a Mutha trucker Liam Edited December 21, 2005 by T-BAD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
