Put the tips of your feet up on the pegs to stop ruining your boots Mark

also in dry conditions you can get your knee down without even having to worry about grip. Its only when going fast with your knee down will you lose grip.

Just lean more untill your knee hits.

I know easier said than done. But It is easy and you are quite close to doing just that

I don't think you would have been that close to peg scraping.

Have you seen the pic of Texmo Knee down in the "250 Club" forum?

Thats how far you can go before peg scraping

But still nice going so far!!
