    Ok now pay attention
    My name is Larry Pestes and I’m almost bawling my head off. In 1982 I held the #5 plate in the state of Oregon in the 250 cc 1:14:10 desert division
    I unloaded hard and ended up in a wheelchair T-5 Para. Then recently broke my neck in a car accident and am lying here and found your video. I’VE BEEN RIDING YOUR BIKE FOR OVER AN HOUR!!!
    Thank you I haven’t been that happy and genuinely excited in forty two years
    Thank you man
    One huge problem. Please show the finishes. What a letdown I miss riding pinned on my Husky so badly. The comradry with the other riders will never be replaced. I miss those days dearly. Treasure every moment
    P.S.Be more careful on those high speed passes. I know all about the mess that ensues

    Race conditions were epic that day! Thankyou for sharing Josh. You are definitely quick! Seems like you have your suspension dialed for those fast whoops! You passed my buddy at 1hr and 35 seconds #161 nov. That is Tim the young man with an artificial leg from the knee down. Just want to give him a shout out. Riding with an artificial limb (left leg) gives extra meaning to whoops and shifting on a dirt bike!

    First, I am astonished at how fast you are yet there were still a couple guys that passed you. So impressive to watch and got arm pump just from watching. I watched your 10 secrets to getting better at riding and thought it was excellent. You seem like a natural teacher. I got into riding for the first time about 5 years ago at the ripe age of 45. I fortunately have somebody way way better than me who has taught me a ton. Still, there a couple of factors that I believe will limit me from getting competitive fast. First, you talk about the act of processing the terrain ahead of you (90/10), but I find I can't process it fast enough to react in time to dangerous situations. Secondly, I think there is a fear factor that is different for someone like me getting into the sport this late in the game vs someone that came out of the womb and onto a PW50. As a kid/teen, you feel invincible and typically lack the same awareness of your own mortality as an adult does. Therefore, you can push boundaries and train your brain to be comfortable with speed, blind turns/hills, etc. Appreciate you taking the time to share your content and love that you Thank the checkpoint folks. Godspeed...👊

    That's the best riding I've ever seen and I'm 60, rode most of my life, man you are at one with that bike, fast and smooth while being courteous, respectful and damn whatever other great words there is in the English language, it was a pleasure to watch, and I was on the edge of my seat riding every bump and corner along the way, so much so my hands hurt and I wore my teeth down a few m/m.
    Subbed and I'll be watching every race you do.
    Keep it upright man and keep it singing.

    It's my opinion that this is one of the best riders out not just because of his speed he also races clean unlike some of the people that almost knocked them over in races. I'm not a spokesperson for ride with the knights but I do recommend watching their videos for fun for excitement and for seeing what it's like to ride along with a champion.

    I kept waiting for your engine to seize since you were absolutely tapped out for such long stretches of time in many sections but then I remembered that all new two strokes are fuel and oil injected so the fuel/air ratio is perfect all the time. My last two stroke was a 1992 RMX that I raced in the desert many times back in the day. Thank you for the awesome POV video. It’s just like I’m flying through the desert again. Absolutely incredible video!!!

      @sailor7557 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@rvh77 Perhaps no pure horsepower gains with a fuel injected bike but the increased mileage, no messing with premix and not worrying about the jetting being too rich or lean are definitely advantages over a carbureted bike in my opinion.

I'll film my rides and l then be let down when I watch them. But I'm not a pro and don't want to risk life and limb but that vid was fun to watch. I was like leaning into the turns with you. Pretty close quarters sometimes riding wide open bar to bar with another racer.
