like all of us i like and strive to improov on my own riding technique ( if thats spelled right ) and when i ride with others i also observe how they "attack" a hill climb or a burm or what ever it may be.
but somthing that i cannot figure out is when to sit or stand when going acrost certin hills or wash outs or woops.
i can think of a peticular road i ride it has a vary deep dip about 7" or so deep that goes all the way acrost the road and is about 2 feet wide...
when i hit this i stand up and the quad dives down in it so hard when it comes back up the wheels leave the ground about an inch or so.... should i sit or stand ? i stand and it feels right but ????
another section i can think of is when i go up this " no winter maintaince" hill their is a huge wash out with a series of " rippling bumps that stretch acrost the road and their is a huge rock it sticks out of the ground 6 inches and is about 15" wide..... i sit when i hit this cause their is a sharp curve after it and i roost threw the curve
when are the proper times to sit and stand ? i see gncc racers almost always sitting down
iam pretty confused over this
