  • Times are tough right now. It's a delicate balance between wanting to improve on your bike and doing it safely. I decided this is a perfect time to put together a video with some skills and drills that you can do at home or close to it. Check it out, try them out and be ready to ride better than ever when you hit the trails.

    Hey everyone, I'm missing group rides and festivals big time. I want to create a new Patreon level so I can offer video coaching and tutorials to address your specific challenges. Members of the group can post videos of sections of trails or moves that are giving you trouble and I can respond with video tips to help you progress. Would a private Facebook group work best? I want people in the group to be able to see whatever gets posted. Thoughts?

      Sounds like a great idea, FB seems like it would be the most accessible platform. Right now is kind of an economically challenging time for everyone (I personally have been out of a job for a bit), so I think the price of the tier could be a challenging balance. It obviously needs to be worth it for you but affordable for the average joe. I have a bit of money I saved for in person coaching that ended up being canceled though, so I'm game for this idea.

    Thanks again for the tutorial. I am still trying to master the last set of drills. :) I would like to see more about the basics; preloading, braking, weight transfer. I'm trying to get my bunny hops bigger, wheelies longer, and manuals more consistent. Progression is hard and takes time and sometimes I think I need to back up and correct my techniques. Your tutorials are helpful to correct those bad practices. Thanks again.

    From the 80's into about 04 I was XC racing. The tire flick was one of the things I liked to do in a race to try to get into peoples heads. If you were leading and had a handfull of guy's stacked on your wheel, but you could tell they were barley hanging on. Start flicking rocks and stuff off the trail. Just another day riding my bike ho-hum...

      Thanks for the quick response. I live in South Africa so it is very dry and dusty but I was thinking of skills on how to ride technical climbs and the challenges one might face and riding fast downhills and skills on how to stay in control at high speeds and some general trial skills. Hope it is possible and thank you for your willingness to help.

      @JeffLenoskyTrailBoss  4 роки тому +2

      Munir Muhammad Said I’m guessing you can already pedal kick? I just set up an Patreon page for online coaching with videos. If you’re interested in joining the group check it out on www.patreon.com/jefflenoskytrailboss to answer your question though. You need to initiate the turn while you’re compressing. Essentially as your crouching down for the pedal kick you start your turn and then as you’re leaving the ground you’ll have some momentum in that direction.
