Gratuitous Gymkhana Video
Sep 2nd, 2009 by Leo
On a semi-vacation this week, so here’s a lazy post: A video of a pretty good gymkhana rider… Notice his body position when he’s on the brakes. He’s not leaning on the bars, instead he leans back as he brakes (and leans forward when speeding up). Now I’ve seen this with motorcycle gymkhana riders, but I always thought they were gripping the tank during braking. Here you can see from his foot position that he’s not using his legs to hold himself up during braking… Interesting! I’ll have to experiment with that and get back to you.
Anyway, enjoy the great riding weather wherever you are. Cheers!
