We set three enclosed couses and two of them were set with varying expansions so a rider can ease into the swing of it at 40% oversize, then as they gain confidence step down to 25%, 10% or the standard size. Even with this easing in, unfortunately several riders were content to enjoy ...
I acquired a new toy this week in the form of a Hero 3 Black Go Pro Video Camera.
