    Riding Tutorials on line

    All, I recently took part in a few group rides in the Boise Idaho area, and learned of their fantastic mountain roads, and their enthusiastic cool riding community. Great people! Anyway, one of these local riders and his family have made the video riding tutorials linked below. Some of these could be great for newb’s, and at a minimum will make one think about their riding technique. I enjoyed these videos, and have to applaud Idaho’s Capt Crash. Dave
    (I hope this isn’t a repost)

    I only watched "Lean", but that was well put together and funny. One word to the wise, get that inside toe up and out of the way.

    CaptCrash is active on another board I frequent. He's a great guy and his vids are essential viewing for newbs.

    LOL,
    That was great. Funny, informative, well done videos.

    Though after watching the outakes at the end of "Lean"
    I don't think that Animal Planet will be offering him a show any time soon.
    But he would be great on the Speed Channel as one comment suggested.

    Re: Riding Tutorials on line

    Oh no...why have all of the vid's been removed by the user? Bummer, sounds like I really could've used the info on them. Anybody know if they've popped up elsewhere?

    I wonder if it's because the music rights issue?

    It appears he has a plan for something more ambitious- a DVD release this Spring.
