      Rino wants everyone to get better.... For theiry're own edification... and for the sheer respect for the sport and the personal payoff any individual can receive from chasing excellence.... you may it be the fastest but you CAN ride faster and be more masterful in your passion

    Absolutely. I'm 55 yrs old and outlast riders 20 yrs younger because I have tested and adjusted every part of my bike, gear, and body to be efficient and use as little energy as possible. There are always places on a track where most riders dread because it is an energy killer. If you can save energy everywhere else you can use bursts to blitz past other riders on the toughest parts of the track.

Just like Ryno said you dance with the bike you don’t force it. There is a lot to be said about that. Lots of MX/SX guys miss out on that. When you are in the saddle for 100 miles + a day there is no forcing left. Learned from the best…..me.

    After watching several of your videos, I tried your recommendations on riding posture and body position on the bike. I have to say after 3 hours of fast single track up in the sierras, I did not once get arm pump like I usually do (my 450 kicks my old ass) On my toes and hips out, head forward really helped combat fatigue since I wasn't constantly pulling on the bars.

I think about all of this every time I go to ride since seeing it. I started riding with my feet and it changed how much fun I have on the dirtbike. even changed the way I strap my bike down, instead of the bars I strap it in by the pegs. my 2nd favorite is the one about fear and preparing for what I want and not what I don't. still wearing my braces tho. :)

    another thing that confirms the statement about low center of gravity design, up until about 1989 the front forks had the steel tubes in the triple clamps putting more weight high. I started racing in the 70's back then we used to cut off the foot pegs and weld them lower and further back. tricks learned from Hannah, Tripes, Smith. Bikes changed so much in the next modle year you couldn't compete on a year old bike. especialy around 1975 to 81, suspension travel went from 4" on a Suzuki TM in 1974 to 9" on a 1975 Suzki RM! Crazy!!! Then cylinder design was the focus for broader power curves. (They put fatter "Power Bands" in them Ha, Ha!) then water cooling in the early 80's Yamaha had their radiator behind the number plate! Suzuki was on the frame where they are now. Back 40 + years ago you could win or lose because of the bike choice you made!

    Mr. Ryan Hughes, you're something else! Thanks for the pointers... Indeed, through years of head scratching: feet lead! It's in skateboarding and surfing then dirt bikes that I found power comes from your ankles where the strength of your feet is stored... Snowboarding proved it to be double true... Riding dirt bikes in my '50s. I have to be efficient to keep going, many of us have noticed your outstanding body English when riding (being one with the machine) and now it's not happenstance That explains it... Rather direct willful input, I can try to rely on.

    cool videos. 40+ yrs ago i was a happy desert racer, from this area, i had the biggest group of off road champions (desert,) with a mixture of very few of the top motorcross champions ever to be, to use as examples. i mean to tell you the history of that covered some time. so i was lucky, some of those greats spoke directly to me about it. some i only got to ride around them some or ride the courses they made all with a mile or two of my house. one feature i noticed on some of those champs were bars position. and most mx'rs run the bars even over the alignment of the forks and that bring their wrist twisted un naturally with an ability to rob endurance and leverage. to find the differences i went from both extremes of bars forward max and bars back max. the forward position quickly will wear on particular muscles in your forearms to the point of cramps and loosing attention on where i'm going. roll em back to over in line with the fork angle and the outside of the wrist' drop to a to a natural posture, not to be confused with a couch posture or relax mode, no, but gives you more leverage over the bars (which might be a controversial subject in the teaching of some,) but you can get back farther on the seat, laying flatter for higher speeds, and as flying in the air it put the pull towards the rear of center as well. so i adapted to lowering them all the way until it was obstructed in the turning circle by the tank and moved it up just over it. it worked for me quite well. it's not the weirdest thing i used to do. running 25lbs of air the front and 20 in the rear tires made for crazy bounces off big rocks but i rarely got flats. and i could pull higher gears up sandy inclines. slightly rough on certain corners too. the best advise is if you want to win, you gotta tell yourself that, over and over preparing for and during the races, only not i want to win, but, "i'm gonna win." and visual it.

I can tell he is a new and improved man, and he lost 4 years of his racing career with out such great direction. What will the ignorant "haters" (I hate that word), think? Probably nothing. They think outside of reality more and more as they reject it more and more, (if the block of reality does not fit their perception of it.). Just like HS and college graduates today.
      Ryan man, I am probably 15 years older than you, and you were inspiring to me. Lots of heart, lots of thinking, lots of speed. Doug in Michigan
