Title: Question on offroad trail riding.
Post by: cbr600_mj on February 18, 2009, 03:52:56 PM
Hey there!

Need some advice, if I may ask.

My wife tried street riding a year ago. Was not to her liking. we wound up selling her ninja 250.

She was too afraid of the traffic etc. And me barking like a drill seargent did not help either.

She did mention that she might want to try trail riding offroad.  That might be great for her and I. No pressue for her and we both could ride and have fun at her pace.

I'm looking via the web "MSF Dirt riding classes" but when I call the number closest to me I get some strange answering machine.

Any of you all know of a good place to where my wife and I could go to learn dirt riding??

If this works out mabe I can get "his and her" dirt bikes.  Win win!

Thank for your help!

MJ

Where are you located? There's a range near Road America here in 'sconnie that does a basic dirt course: http://www.wisconsinoffroadadventures.com/

Here's a list of other schools: http://www.gomotocross.com/train-cont.php

I bet she'll love trail riding. Maybe y'all can get into doing hare scrambles. I've never done one, but they look like a hoot.

Hope this helps!
