Try being younger, that really helps. I'm almost 65 and it really helps me ride better when I forget how old I am.
You are beast man.
Haha gold ,I’m 60 can’t agree more👍
@@dnrg62 It can't be that bad being 65 then.. is it?
Hope to be riding at 65 ! Awesome man 🤙🏼
@@onenessseeker5683 ,
Lol ,no complaints but just recovered from some cracked ribs and ligament damage in my shoulder ,when I was younger these things seem to heal quicker ,40 years of riding bikes and I wouldn’t change it for the world ,as for 65 I hope to be riding past that into my 70 s if possible .cheersd👍
Just turned 60 and haven't been riding dirt bikes for 40 years. Just bought a YZ450F. Your only as old as you feel. Age is just a number. Wish me luck.
Body position is EVERYTHING!! Just got back from trail riding and I was trying different body positions to see what is the easiest on my body! I found that u only want to sit down when hitting a sharp turn. Also your feet need to be so far back and inwards, and squeeze the bike. Once I got myself in the correct position I was able to save energy and ride longer!
This info is GOLD!! Great channel!!
I’m always a big fan of Josh Knight’s presentation style. Very clear and organized.
No better teacher at breaking it down for us. Thanks Josh for the tips!!
These were really great tips, thanks Josh.
Excellent video, thank you!
Thanks man, enjoyed the vid.
Great tips! Keep em coming 😉 to Australia
Appreciate the tips. Often it's getting back to basics and doing the simple things right. Smooth makes fast.
As a new rider. This is helpful
If you can be efficient and have lots of fitness, you'll be an absolute weapon.
Excellent stuff
Great tips! Thanks!
These are awesome tips! With time, I’ve tried to apply all of these and the results are amazing. I find that the breathing and managing the intensity when racing are super key! I would just add two: new tires and proper tire pressure and the correct set up of your suspension….
Great info!!!!
Great tips!
best colab ever! 👍
This guys vids are awesome
I definitely have noticed that my mentality and momentum is what affects me the most in races. Sometimes I’ll be thinking too much about what ifs and it will make me sketched on everything and I can’t find good lines and it makes me slow down real hard in corners. But the days where I’m feeling good I definitely carry more speed in corners and find new lines. I can’t always control my brain easily but I need to learn to find the better lines all over a 10 min loop! (At Glen Helen) in my last race I won the moto because I searched for lines for most of the track but some of it when it went to the main track I was struggling and they would catch up to me and then I would have to work harder in the off-road sections to get away.
Der absolute Hammer 🤟🏆😃 great explained 👍 keep it up. you are very personable 👍 abo is out😉
Dude I love how these weren’t the normal tips!
This one still gets me every now and then but my tip would be to look as far ahead as possible and choose your line well ahead of time. Sometimes I get tunnel vision coming into a corner, and blind corners on trails are the worst. When you lose your momentum because of indicision it's easy to lose balance and drop the bike.

Like in Zombieland.. rule #1 CARDIO🤓😜
Good Video!🙏 thanks RMATV
Smooth... Smooth is fast
Dammit! Now everybody knows. But I just learned, so thank you.
Super 💯
I ride mainly on the back wheels once the power valves start opening.
What track did you guys film this at? Looks like a fun place to ride!
Don't forget to do certain exercises that duplicate the riding you face. Core and leg endurance for the win...
Sand is my worst nightmare I’m from Iowa so not a lot of sand, mud and regular dirt unless it becomes super dry then it’s like sand lol
I have a 1990 xr600r with a 5gl tank and it gets Close to 400 pounds when full and I find it very hard to ride a track but off road mountain riding I do very well. Also I'm a big guy 6ft4 270 pounds. Do you have any tips for the bigger riders.
@@TylerTron21 thanks for the insight
I ride a xr600 as well. I started riding my usual trails one gear higher than normal and it forces you to be smooth, helps slow the onset of arm pump as well. I'm 6'5" 260 bar risers were a big help too. I started running the tubliss system in my front tire last year and it gave the frontend alot more bite, no more washouts. Just my .02
Start road biking or XC mountain biking if you do not want to get tired while riding your dirt bike.
Stretching is great, exercise legs, jog/cycle, then send it, the sport is literally fitness, if you’re not fit, you’re not gonna last
Does anyone know of other races where a novice/beginning rider can camp, watch a race, and do a little riding of their own?
@ 5:22 there are spectators camping....WHAT RACE/WHERE IS THAT???
I’m not 100% sure, but it looks a lot like the MX GP at lake havasu
@@flashpointbravo thanks will check it out would be awesome weekend to camp ride and watch
What is the bike u are standing infront of
2021 Sherco 450 SEF Factory Edition
Thanks for checking out the video!
Laughing like a loon and encouraging myself in French calms me down and keeps me focused on the hard parts.
where was the sand part of this filmed? 1:27
Warner Valley Southern Utah mostly. Check my vids. I’m there all the time. I think that’s Josh’s home area
This is out near the Little Sahara Recreation Area in Northern Utah. The footage is from the annual NHHA/Sage Riders desert race that is held in that area.
Arm pump ...man, do I hate that
Can you sposered one motocross bike to me
I get arm pump, i dont get tired . I hate it so much
The trick I was taught a long time ago was: ride hard, get to the threshold of arm pump AND KEEP GOING, albeit at a slightly slower pace, to teach your lympatic system to deal with the lactic acid build-up. It's a good way to force yourself to practice riding smoothly and over time you can go harder for much longer.
Hope this make some sense!
I ride efficiently but my endurance is low
I need leg and foot work.
