Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

MX day on Saturday ,EV lost her confidence because shes hardly ridden this year and on a bigger bike. The track was un-watered and like riding on glass marbles, but once the side cars went out there was a clearer line and she was ok. Watching a 700cc 2T side car is like nothing else they are brutal ...
