Stand up! more traction

probably worth looking at investing in some boots mate my legs learnt the hard way, scars!

My chain went ping today at my local track snapped clean in half only 2 months old, 1.7 mile push home up hill's i was dead hmm

some spare links from old chain can be carried and used to get you home along with some slit links ..

and yeah the copper wire is not safe but it did do the trick and it was thick wire lol .

Better to sit down on the back going uphill, more weight on the rear wheel more traction

Ive never worn any additional protective gear on my own land because i know it so well... I dont mind hurt i dont like break, and protective gear wont stop breaks anyway, fair enough boots protect the ankle, neck brace aswell

A bike like the Dt isn't hard to control so i dont feel too intimidated, but when i ride the kx450f i would never ride it without full gear on

Plus it feels awesome when none of your movements are restricted

But yeh i know you should wear the gear all the time, no matter how well you think you know the track, but f*** it
