Captain Crash

Sixty Second Lessons with Captain Crash. Good stuff with a nice bit of slightly twisted humor.

Yes, the counter-steer is very apparent in that video. Check out the others in the hyperlink.

As crazy as this sounds I have learned not to look directly at what I am trying to avoid hitting. If I must look "at it" I look a foot to the left or a foot the the right. Why? Cause if I look directly at it, it magically pulls the bikes front tire into it.

i resembled that remark....

...the one about having to avoid what cars travel over....i ran over the very end of a piece of lumber that luckily wasnt too dang thick...learned that very same manuver at the rider's course on base and yeah...it works....

increasing the distance tween you and the cage in front werks better though.

Crash is a member of this forum. He often answers newer riders questions on the forum, along with a large group of other experienced riders. The forum has a large number of Rider Coaches who participate in everything from serious discussion to just plain fun stuff. It is the other primary forum I spend some time at (aside from this one).
