Fun ride! Thanks as always for bringing us along. 😀
👨👩👧 ❤ -David, Elizabeth, and little Jessica
I started in the dirt in 1977. Great fun. Those "cool goggles" are a must there, especially when riding with others. (The kind with foam surrounds and vents). I like both types of riding but at 50 my reflexes and balance keep me on the street now. Modern dirtbikes would probably kill me! Note-the "hooliganing" that Jon does IS great practice for emergency situations, except maybe the wheelies.
Emergency braking can be tricky. Progessive pressure is key to help the weight compress the tires to get more rubber on the pavement which gives you more traction to stop. I always cover my clutch while riding too, and keep in mind what gear your in, so you can quickly drop a gear or two and utilize engine braking with progessive brake pressure. Just have to practice and know the bike so you know how the effectively utilize your tools. Practice is the best thing you can do.
Emergency braking= Scoot your butt to the rear of the seat and manage the front brake and look for a way out. (I have actually been in those complications and had to think fast.) Never try to turn your bike if you know you can't avoid it. (Never turn it sideways because you might slide under a moving vehicle or trailer.) Plant your feet and try to time the impact and jump off the peggs. With that done roll into a ball or slide your feet forward. It depends on your speed. Always be prepared to jump off the bike straight up. I have landed in back of pickup trucks, went over top of cars and totaled out there car and the bike in a split second. They like to pull out in front of you because bikes are hard to see. Always stay alert.
Yaaay dirt bikes!!! I’m a dirt to street girl myself. Had fun watching you out on your first ride in the dirt. You did great, kept your balance, tried something new, you’re a rockstar.
I TRIED to start learning to ride on two wheels in dirt. I'd ridden quads from the time I was a kid, so the clutch and breaks were no problem... But the throttle... I bought a little dirt bike and I whisky throttled so bad and scared the bajesus out of myself. All two times I rode it. Fast forward nearly a decade and I'm riding on the street at least every weekend.
My two Fav bikes!!! Although I have never ridden a Grom. One day I shall.
First ride was in the dirt. Second ride was in a truck to the hospital to make sure I didn't have broken ribs. Hahaha
I started on the street. Also I started riding just a few months ago. Taking the course really helped me get more confident. I still stall sometimes too lol
I started off road when I was 6. I'm 52 now. But I learned everything about bikes from off road. Street tires really don't like off road.
We had a different drz with better tires. Wish we still had that one!! I'll need to take a better bike out next time.
I started with an Artic Cat mini bike on dirt. Lots of fun. Your doing great.
I started in dirt, ATC's and dirt bikes then graduated to street. Every once in a while I take my Sporty down dirt/gravel roads around where I live and it's not bad at all. Jon's right stay off the front brake in the dirt until you have more experience with it, it's a sure recipe for disaster. Go slow and learn to "feel" the bike sliding around a bit. They are different animals, but dirt to street is probably easier to learn than the other way. Ride safe and have fun !
I feel the funk. I've been in it too. These fires up here aren't helping either. I'm actually contemplating just taking some family leave and spending a month or two at home with my clones. This whole year is testing my mind and emotions greatly. And it's funny that you want seasons. I'm done with seasons since oregon changes seasons weekly. Hahaha
I started with the dirt bike, and to me riding on pavement is so nice lol but don’t get me wrong I love the rocky roads on my dirt bike, just love the challenge!
“I don’t want to be a part of these shenanigans “ lol
He's always up to some sort of trouble!
“I don’t like Jon’s adventures. His adventures are poopy”. 🤣🤣 I just got an adventure bike, but haven’t taken It on the dirt yet. I hope you’re out of the funk and feeling better this week!
Looks like you have seven children, you're a caring Mom and conceded with the oldest one 😊
Hahaha you're right, I do have 7!!! That oldest one needs to straighten up!
Hi Jackie nice stuff stay safe when your ride😎🖐
Caught a Jackie video at upload! Oh yeah!
Nice catch!! 🤣
Lets gooooooooooooo, you guys should get a head set mic for the helmets for communication. Just saying .
My adventures are "Fly by the seat of my pants" and "figure it out as I go". I cringed when Jon went over that speed bump doing a wheelie. I don't think you were in 1st gear when you stalled at the stop sign. You can get 4 seasons in the mountains of Arizona. I started riding on dirt (mud) rutted roads in Alaska. I like riding on the street the best, but I'd like to have a bike I could ride in the dirt to get to some neat places. Ride safe Jackie.
Shoot! I was wondering why I stalled. I try to downshift to first every time I stop. Thanks for looking out!
I think I'm so used to seeing Jon do crazy things that it doesn't even phase me anymore. That's probably not a good thing!!
Hope you're healing up and doing okay!
@@JackiesMotoGarage It happens to me too, I just don't stall. As soon as I feel the stuttering and the engine starting to knock I pull the clutch back in and push the shifter down and try again. I doing pretty well, just really missing riding. Gotta wait till my bone is good or it'll just take even longer. Thankyou.
Nice video 😀👍
Holding a wheelie over the speed-bump? That is impressive.
Where did this channel go, miss my semi-regular motorcycle journey. I'm going to assume she's finally loving a bike (the Bonneville, of course) so much that she's too busing enjoying her rides to share with the internet. Either way, miss you, Jackie!
I have been slacking!!! I've had a video in the editing process for about 2.5 weeks 🤦🏼♀️. Hopefully I will get something posted soon!!! That you for the support.
@@JackiesMotoGarage No worries! Thanks for the update. As someone who works in education, I'm sure you've been busy with things besides my entertainment. Looking forward to your return 😁👍
@@Stamatos haha yes!! We've been transitioning to in-person school and it's been interesting! You are amazing! Thank you for working in education!
@@JackiesMotoGarage glad to hear the kids are getting back to normal. My job with my district is on the technology side and I can't wait to go back to supporting students and staff on site. The upside is that my Bonnie and I have the road to ourselves in the morning 🏍️ Hmmm looks like the only moto emoji is more like my ninja 🤔
Why the thought of being your neighbor sounds interesting.. AZ is just too hot. Where I am, we only hit 100 once :) but then we get snow 4 months out of the year...
started on a beginner bike (buell blast 500) and used it to practice out my fear
Are you kidding you should be getting happy this time of year where you are , Bc now you can ride a lot ! In nys we are going into fall , which goes fast and then freezes up for 6 months and we can’t ride at all until at least April unless you are super brave and go out bundled up on freezing cold but dry days which will be few and far between till April or May
You got it down! Will get more comfortable in time. Don’t be afraid to give it the beans :) Any tips for my wife starting out? We’re learning in the yard on a 125cc pit bike, she’s a bit nervous
Tell her to go at her own pace! Mistakes are part of the learning process...I have made plenty and still make plenty. I never in a million years would have imagined that I would be riding motorcycles around. The world needs more women riders! Good luck to her. She can do it!! And maybe an MSF course will boost confidence? I plan on doing one eventually!
Jackie's Moto Garage Totally agree! Thanks Jackie, y’all are some genuinely awesome people. Sending love from the heartland!
Need more throttle. And your letting the clutch out to fast.
You guys need to get a comm system!
We totally do!!! It would be a great investment!
U just need to accelerate more when releasing the clutch from a stop that all. Ur almost letting it idle in gear to u get going just accelerate
My man's sign language while we're riding is also near impossible to understand ahaha
Whens your next vid? Can't wait
Better practice your stops and starts. stop then start, stop then start.........youll get there..
New Channel Name: Jon's Moto Shenanigans/Jackie's Moto Shenanigans. Lol.
You may want to consider keeping your visor down lol
I usually do but it was just so nice outside!! Lesson learned.
Hey DanDantheFireman is in AZ. Hey has tons of videos. Maybe you can message him and he can help you out. A very nice guy.
Eye protection! You must remember
Dang! I was all set to be first! LOL
Haha shoot. Next time!
So get out there and ride Jackie maybe that will help your depression? Thanks 🙏 Mike
Try staying in lower gears so you don't stall
Oh is that why I stalled?! I try to down shift to first every time I stop. I didn't realize I wasn't in first! Thanks for the tip!
@@JackiesMotoGarage sometimes i forget what gear in in when i hear the bike start to sputter I pull the clutch in like half way and rev the engine really high and then slowly feather out the clutch rather then stoping and down shifting back to first
@@JackiesMotoGarage also you are very humble showing your progress and taking advice I have a feeling you already knew why you stalled lol
A "billion cars"
Give or take a few...
LoL. U are doing great!!
@@Jshark606 haha thank you!!!
2nd gear
I promise if someone pulls out in front of you you won't have time to worry about saying anything
You got to learn to down shift, to 1st gear
I try to downshift to first every time I stop. I guess I didn't realize I wasn't in first!! Thanks for looking out!
5:42 because you're not using any throttle.
But then again, you dont use any gear either
Get rid of the show off!!!
