Well then not very smart for a 62 year old. I have to still work for a living. Good on Steve for pushing himself to the limit. I’m 58 and learned long ago broken bones take longer to heal.LOL
Steve is older than you are Chris! You're only as old as you feel.
...never slow down, never grow old

How is your body holding up? Mine is thrashed. I was more of a desert racer. Never made it past novice. I used to ride every weekend. Now life commitments have taken over. You are one of the very few older riders that still get out there and tear it up. Most all of my racing buddies are limping around. And poor Malcom Smith. He is barely getting around on his own power. As of 2 years ago he was still riding though. It bums me out that I’m unable to ride at the same level as I did 20 years ago. Good on you Steve for still getting out there.Just got home from a MX track.
Great riding .
Lots of big table tops, Lot bigger than that jump in my back yard.
I could do them all but no one there to take pictures [so it never happened]
And Chris, I've been doing this all the time since 1972, My first MX race and last summer in the +60 class, "Smoked them old guys"
That's a hard skill to learn for sure. I noticed my legs were on fire after only about 20 minutes aboard one of those. Also could not get used to the shifter so far out from the peg when doing a transfer section. The only thing I liked about a trials bike was the light weight and being able to crawl over rock piles without having to wrestle it. I almost bought one but know it would just be a garage queen most of the time.If you really want to see how little you know about riding, Try riding a trials bike.
I'll never master that thing.
I have never been but I can't imagine it being difficult at all on a dual sport bike such as my Beta.The WRT is anything but mellow.
