It's easy to nail the "one-take" when you're speaking from knowledge and presenting it instead of seasoning band plating bullshit and calling it a salad.... Rino wants everyone to get better.... For theiry're own edification... and for the sheer respect for the sport and the personal payoff any individual can receive from chasing excellence.... you may it be the fastest but you CAN ride faster and be more masterful in your passion
@@tylerkikkert6600 they dislike him because his mere existence makes them feel insecure.... And he's faster than them... And evidently from the Gypsy Tales podcast he practices Tantra... So ...

Absolutely. I'm 55 yrs old and outlast riders 20 yrs younger because I have tested and adjusted every part of my bike, gear, and body to be efficient and use as little energy as possible. There are always places on a track where most riders dread because it is an energy killer. If you can save energy everywhere else you can use bursts to blitz past other riders on the toughest parts of the track.
@@libertyfighter1 long time desert rider here. We like to call them “death marches”. I’m not riding some pussy 4-stroke either. CR500 is just right for me. Longer the ride the faster I get. Just like Ryno said you dance with the bike you don’t force it. There is a lot to be said about that. Lots of MX/SX guys miss out on that. When you are in the saddle for 100 miles + a day there is no forcing left. Learned from the best…..me.
Ryan, I can’t thank you enough for your awesome instruction. Found you last week watched everything I could find one whole day. Went out with my buddies and was another rider. Instinct, intuition and Initiation. Be the initiator!!!’ That one is PURE GOLD🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆. Top Level Pro’s POWER OUT. Unlocking the hips, hinging at the hips is a GAME CHANGER!! THANKS
Hello Ryan , you explained it perfectly. Im 52 and still riding, and loving it with my kids also . I ride the way you explained and it makes me happy to know that someone like you is on the same page. Keep it up Ryan . Good to see you on a Honda.
56 and still getting faster by listening and applying what Ryan says.. senior can haul ass. Ask anyone in enduro, single trail, grand prix, etc. Keep riding fellow gen Xer
this is the best technique video on the internet, I watch this all the time just as a reminder and to make sure I did not miss anything. I think about all of this every time I go to ride since seeing it. I started riding with my feet and it changed how much fun I have on the dirtbike. even changed the way I strap my bike down, instead of the bars I strap it in by the pegs. my 2nd favorite is the one about fear and preparing for what I want and not what I don't. still wearing my braces tho. :)
After watching several of your videos, I tried your recommendations on riding posture and body position on the bike. I have to say after 3 hours of fast single track up in the sierras, I did not once get arm pump like I usually do (my 450 kicks my old ass) On my toes and hips out, head forward really helped combat fatigue since I wasn't constantly pulling on the bars. Thank you for the tip!
Stumbled onto your older Video. You are a fantastic teacher. In just a few minutes you uncovered not just my riding short woes, but also, how to fix my body from past injuries. I have been researching how to fix my bad back, my weak legs, and my busted pelvic. The many surgeries to repair me made me weak and stiff everywhere. All those body positions and how 'we move' with the bike and how we position ourselves for what is about to happen vs what just happened...... fixes my body. I have done hours on hours of strength training using your riding position principles into my riding and my workouts and what a difference it has made. Strengthening the muscles that are used to ride in the correct position has made my life less painful and more enjoyable. Thank You for making your videos.
Thank you for sharing this with the world. As a martial artist I will agree with you 100% that everything starts at the feet. Our entire body balance comes from the interaction between the various muscles of the feet and toes. Great stuff here, again, thank you for sharing your wisdom.
I'm so happy this came up in my feed. Ryan is one of my favorite riders of all time. If he says it I'm listening. Without a doubt the best riding advice you can get. Looks like Ryno also sells all sorts of nutritional supplements too. If he says it Do It!
It’s crazy that while he is explaining it, it sounds like it should be common sense but riders don’t think about everything he’s saying, he taught me a few disciplines today....great video
All 100%.. I struggled to listen to you when you started repeating yourself years ago.. and I'm glad you did. Corrected some bad habits in the 80's. 30 plus years later and I'm faster because of gurus like you👍. Appreciate it man
Good point about repetition. From almost flunking HS to becoming the sharpest guy in college for engineering, (after 6 years of 8 years of part study while working full time),---------------------I owe it to "repetitive study". So I made up that phrase recently. :) It really is sad, because I have experience with what the brain does with exercise, (gets stronger too), that we all have this untapped potential right behind our eyes and between our ears.
Yo brother, Ryan, I’ve probably commented on this before, but I’m watching it again a year or so later and picking up more wisdom . I will probably watch this and a lot of your other videos regularly from time to time just to refresh and perfect well as close as I can get to it anyway my non-professional Extreme riding activities. Thank you, my friend.
Thank you for your continued support. I just shot a masterclass on technique. Its an online course and easy to access on your phone, you should look into it.
This was great! Reminds me of watching tips on squat form by Mark Rippetoe.. a bunch of minor details that when implemented resulted in big gains. Thanks for posting this
That was so good!!! THANK YOU!! i am just starting rideing again after 21 yres!! And multiple surgeries!! So that helped me so mush.. more then any other stuff i have seen and iid not have to pay for it!! You are a good man!!
One of the best videos I've seen on rider position and being one with the gyroscope(bike). Awesome work Ryno! Sweet watching you rip the 86' CR at Lorettas!
Ti ho conosciuto ad Asti fine anni 90 quando ti allenavi con il team Pamo Honda, sei rimasto identico, vero, genuino, un vero Campione! I tuoi consigli sono oro ... anche se non sono mai riuscito a tenere la scia, ma guardandoti ho imparato tantissimo.
Watched you race as a kid at carlsbad on a kx 500 you were like 15yrs old. Always knew you would be someone great in our sport. Thanks for all you do, keep us alive.
I am an old guy that loves your videos, Thanks Ryan! another thing that confirms the statement about low center of gravity design, up until about 1989 the front forks had the steel tubes in the triple clamps putting more weight high. I started racing in the 70's back then we used to cut off the foot pegs and weld them lower and further back. tricks learned from Hannah, Tripes, Smith. Bikes changed so much in the next modle year you couldn't compete on a year old bike. especialy around 1975 to 81, suspension travel went from 4" on a Suzuki TM in 1974 to 9" on a 1975 Suzki RM! Crazy!!! Then cylinder design was the focus for broader power curves. (They put fatter "Power Bands" in them Ha, Ha!) then water cooling in the early 80's Yamaha had their radiator behind the number plate! Suzuki was on the frame where they are now. Back 40 + years ago you could win or lose because of the bike choice you made!
I heard some people hating on you and they mentioned you were smart so I rushed over to your channel and found this incredible advice which I will apply to mountain biking in AZ. Thank you sir.
@@RyanHughesMX Congratulations for the now, and future success of Austin Forkner. I can tell he is a new and improved man, and he lost 4 years of his racing career with out such great direction. What will the ignorant "haters" (I hate that word), think? Probably nothing. They think outside of reality more and more as they reject it more and more, (if the block of reality does not fit their perception of it.). Just like HS and college graduates today. Ryan man, I am probably 15 years older than you, and you were inspiring to me. Lots of heart, lots of thinking, lots of speed. Doug in Michigan
Hey Ryan, awesome show. I have only watched 2 shows so far, man I like how you spit that knowledge out. Very clearly said, it is logical and makes physical sense. Thanks
Ry, thank you. I’ve never heard anyone lay it out as clearly and direct! I saved this I have to watch it a few more times to get everything to settle in. I may just do one at a time. Thanks. Subscribed!
I went from darn near flunking HS to becoming the sharpest guy in my 8 years of college in Engineering, (after year 6), buy doing one thing,---------------------"repetitive study". So I just coined that phrase. :)
Great advice, I find mountainbiking downhill and pump tracks help with the straight back hips unlocked technique Ryno mentions. Good form = good technique 👌
You do a great job explaining how _and why._ I'm gaining a lot from watching you, but also have to rewatch as it's taking my mind is taking time to learn each piece and ingrain it. As an adventure/dualsport rider, your stance videos dramatically improved my control and fatigue threshold. I feel much safer and more clear where my current skill limits are. Thanks for helping the riding community out.
We really appreciate the Hot tips a lot of people ride stiff and never even know it. It's always great to hear especially for my pro perspective and it makes a lot of sense.
Mr. Ryan Hughes, you're something else! Thanks for the pointers... Indeed, through years of head scratching: feet lead! It's in skateboarding and surfing then dirt bikes that I found power comes from your ankles where the strength of your feet is stored... Snowboarding proved it to be double true... Riding dirt bikes in my '50s. I have to be efficient to keep going, many of us have noticed your outstanding body English when riding (being one with the machine) and now it's not happenstance That explains it... Rather direct willful input, I can try to rely on. THANKS FOR LEADING BY EXAMPLE
Such a great way of explaining things. I've seen so many video that just tell you the proper body position but can't explain why. The thing you said about from the hips down you control the rear and from hips up you control the front really made sense to me.
cool videos. 40+ yrs ago i was a happy desert racer, from this area, i had the biggest group of off road champions (desert,) with a mixture of very few of the top motorcross champions ever to be, to use as examples. i mean to tell you the history of that covered some time. so i was lucky, some of those greats spoke directly to me about it. some i only got to ride around them some or ride the courses they made all with a mile or two of my house. one feature i noticed on some of those champs were bars position. and most mx'rs run the bars even over the alignment of the forks and that bring their wrist twisted un naturally with an ability to rob endurance and leverage. to find the differences i went from both extremes of bars forward max and bars back max. the forward position quickly will wear on particular muscles in your forearms to the point of cramps and loosing attention on where i'm going. roll em back to over in line with the fork angle and the outside of the wrist' drop to a to a natural posture, not to be confused with a couch posture or relax mode, no, but gives you more leverage over the bars (which might be a controversial subject in the teaching of some,) but you can get back farther on the seat, laying flatter for higher speeds, and as flying in the air it put the pull towards the rear of center as well. so i adapted to lowering them all the way until it was obstructed in the turning circle by the tank and moved it up just over it. it worked for me quite well. it's not the weirdest thing i used to do. running 25lbs of air the front and 20 in the rear tires made for crazy bounces off big rocks but i rarely got flats. and i could pull higher gears up sandy inclines. slightly rough on certain corners too. the best advise is if you want to win, you gotta tell yourself that, over and over preparing for and during the races, only not i want to win, but, "i'm gonna win." and visual it.
Sick vid bud. Been riding on and off for 30 years and I have terrible technique. So many bad habits, plus injuries and inflexibilities but I’ll try to take it onboard and apply it. Thank you
Am I the only one that thinks Ryan Hughes should run for president?....hands down one of the smartest and most fit riders on the planet. If Ryan Hughes told me to jump I would say how high? or how low? because I know I would get an in depth consultation about the way to do it correctly and efficiently. You got my vote Rhino
This is a good video.. I've had my kx250 for two years. I will say I'm not the best rider, I keep it cautious. But I've been nervous to make changes because I wasn't sure what changes to make based on my riding. This is very helpful!
Hey! Thank you for your video! Could you explain more about foot position? From one side I've been told to cover the break but I have to put pegs under the middle of my foot just before the heel so the joint doesn't work at all. From other side if I want to use foot joint then I should put the finger pads to the pegs then I can't touch the break. (I have standard complection and height of 180 cm.) Any advices?
yeah when this dude speaks you listen or you may pay for it dearly. excellent coach. excellent logical thinking. if I rode every day and had a championship under my belt I would still hire him as a coach and continue working with him
Speaking words of wisdom! I most top guys doing the techniques mentioned by Rhino! I can see this applying to mtb as well. I was 1st 1986 125A in FL. Made top 3-5's in the 86 Mini Os 125A riding 4 days wva C1 Burst Fracture. Came back for a win @ 88 Gatorback Winter Am 125A 1-1 on Cagiva. 11th @ Daytona 125 Esx. Last time I raced. You should train these guys w some par core & gymnastics to help take the falls.
Gary Bailey, (Yes, the step Father of David Bailey), really had some great stuff, as he thought the USA how to ride to win 13 MXofN's in a row. I have a newer bike now after 2 decades off, and i found out I can set it up like today's set up, or old school. Old school was better thinking, but Ryan has no problem thinking and teaching about riding either. I can't ride with my bars high like today, and I notice not very many amateurs have good corner speed today.
Lsd can teach you a lot about flow and connection between intuition and instinct. I feel like a lot of action sports guys have this foundation of almost a spiritual aspect to riding.
It's intuitive because they have 10's of thousands of track hours. Most of which was done at the same time their brain was developing. Almost every movement they make on a bike is intuitive.
As with everything in nature- Form follows Function! You have elaborated this idea perfectly for motorcycle riding beautifully. I love watching your videos, Like a professor in a classroom out there on the dirt; brilliant!
Man this is golden. Can you PLEASE do a complete online video series. Make it thorough like Semic’s stuff but teach this new style, feet on pegs, unlock hips etc. people will pay for this. I’d pay for it. It needs to happen.
its 3 am and im watching jesus teach me the 4 principles of riding position thank you mx jesus

If Ryan Hughes told me to jump I would say how high? or how low? because I know I would get an in depth consultation about the way to do it correctly and efficiently. You got my vote Rhino
Every word and movement done with purpose. Love the videos Ryno!
When did Rob Zombie learn so much about riding dirt bikes? Great information. I needed to hear that. Time to practice.
Most efficient video I've seen. Very Well Done
This is a good video.. I've had my kx250 for two years. I will say I'm not the best rider, I keep it cautious. But I've been nervous to make changes because I wasn't sure what changes to make based on my riding. This is very helpful!
Great analysis Ryno
Outstanding I figured most of that out when I raced back in the 70s Thanks for the Brush up !!!!
this helped me so much. Thank you Ryan. Youre a ledgend .
Everybody needs to hear what this guy is talking about, this is Zen and the art of being one with the mx bike no doubt about it!!! Peace!
Thank you for sharing how to become one with bike. Now, only if this insight was shared 30 years ago.
Hey! Thank you for your video!
Could you explain more about foot position? From one side I've been told to cover the break but I have to put pegs under the middle of my foot just before the heel so the joint doesn't work at all.
From other side if I want to use foot joint then I should put the finger pads to the pegs then I can't touch the break.
(I have standard complection and height of 180 cm.)
Any advices?
yeah when this dude speaks you listen or you may pay for it dearly. excellent coach. excellent logical thinking. if I rode every day and had a championship under my belt I would still hire him as a coach and continue working with him
Sad that i just found this channel, this is great and he’s 100% speaking facts. I’ll be watching this a few times
Right on bro always a good reminder and instruction for newer riders awesome!
I still remember Ryno pushing his bike across the finish line. Would be awesome to see guys with that kind of GRIT nowadays.
I remember reedy doing the same in seattle
GRIT nowadays ... has been canceled. But not here in Arizona yet.
@@len9483 Very nice! 🤘
i noticed that webb was crawling all over his bike,
. very flexible. i was jealous! thanks, ryno!
KILLER MAN! Thank you!!! I'll take these Ideas to the woods with me!
Speaking words of wisdom! I most top guys doing the techniques mentioned by Rhino! I can see this applying to mtb as well. I was 1st 1986 125A in FL. Made top 3-5's in the 86 Mini Os 125A riding 4 days wva C1 Burst Fracture. Came back for a win @ 88 Gatorback Winter Am 125A 1-1 on Cagiva. 11th @ Daytona 125 Esx. Last time I raced. You should train these guys w some par core & gymnastics to help take the falls.
Top quality information, great delivery
Awesome content. Love to keep getting your wisdom. Do these principles hold up for mountain biking as well?
Yes
Not quite as extreme on the toes on a mountain bike as your pedal is on a spindle.
That's why you're the guru. Great video.
I’ve only been riding 2 years now, stumbling upon this man has helped me improve greatly already over this short time. This dudes the best
Gary Bailey, (Yes, the step Father of David Bailey), really had some great stuff, as he thought the USA how to ride to win 13 MXofN's in a row. I have a newer bike now after 2 decades off, and i found out I can set it up like today's set up, or old school. Old school was better thinking, but Ryan has no problem thinking and teaching about riding either. I can't ride with my bars high like today, and I notice not very many amateurs have good corner speed today.
So how do you shift or break on your toes
Incredibly informative and...extremely well said.
Thank you RH9.
Lsd can teach you a lot about flow and connection between intuition and instinct. I feel like a lot of action sports guys have this foundation of almost a spiritual aspect to riding.
It's intuitive because they have 10's of thousands of track hours. Most of which was done at the same time their brain was developing. Almost every movement they make on a bike is intuitive.
so many fast riders out there try to to teach...but ryno is a guru in the art telling you what should be done and telling you WHY.
As with everything in nature- Form follows Function! You have elaborated this idea perfectly for motorcycle riding beautifully. I love watching your videos, Like a professor in a classroom out there on the dirt; brilliant!
Ryno dropping knowledge!! People would pay large amounts of money for this info and he's giving it out for free. Take notes!!
wow. awesome video!! Things we don't think about .. i love this session
Dance with the motorcycle, love it
Thats the best Ryno I've ever seen.
Ryno knows....no doubt.
Much respect for Ryno...great he's sharing the knowledge.
👍
Man this is golden. Can you PLEASE do a complete online video series. Make it thorough like Semic’s stuff but teach this new style, feet on pegs, unlock hips etc. people will pay for this. I’d pay for it. It needs to happen.
