The only reason I only ride in the Iron man Class is I have no friends left to enter the two man events,
my own fault really.
Remember, these questions have to cater for the lowest common denominator.
Yeah but you dont need to stand up on cruisers, because you have cotton wool for suspension.
I made the mistake of swerving around an obstacle that I should have run straight over, and I assure you the correct answer is A... Gravel, grass, gutter, culvert, AIRBORNE!! Not nice. If there is any question about it, and time is evaporating fast, just run it over and deal with the consequences of that, rather than with the consequences of leaving the road.

"I did axactly as you said and it worked...!!"
"Wow, Great advise there DB."
WTB: Hyosung bikes or going or not.
Of course the answer (they want) is A.
In real terms, you should employ A with a small dose of B to lighten the front and allow more suspension travel to absorb the shock.
Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?
There's a railway crossing I go over quite often out west a bit. It's quite high - ie raised well up off the rest of the road level...
I always stand up and fang shit out of it when I go over it....lots more fun that way...
Then there's the humpy bridge out on Pokuru Road.....mmmmm...you need to keep your weight back a little if you jump over that one...no, I'm NOT telling you how I found out - mind ya own bloody business ya nosy bastards...

You WILL tell us or it will be bean shoots under the fingernails for you (don't hurt, but people will laugh at you)
Yep. A it is. Take the rule re animals on road. You should not brake/swerve for them but drive/ride over them. (As long as it is not a cow or a horse...)Logic here is that if you drive/ride over them there will be no disruption to the traffic and it is a calculated decision so you are prepared for it.
If you got time to stand up then you got time to stop.
Is this the rule that you apply when you cant stop within half the visable distance?
The correct answer of course is to pop a quick wheelie to get the front wheel over, immediately followed by a stoppie to get the rear over. Sorted.
(how do you stand up on the footpegs of a forward control crusier?

I bet I can stand up quicker than I can stop...even though me knees are fucked...
