Finally Got Circles Locked down

Well It finally happened. Went out today on a mission. To get circles & I got em. 1st gear i found to work best. Ive got a consistent 1.5 to 2 full circles with the best of the day 3 full circles. Now that I got the feel of how to learn - a few more hours & i'll have em till im dizzy.

I start off creepin in first, yank it up, then lean left. I have better balance when i start out going straight, and then turn into the circle.

I can do 2nd - but its not as tight of a circle as 1st is.

:YEAH

I got the circles on lock too!! its all about grabbing that brake and not letting it roll to fast, counter balance with you inside leg or what ever and keep the bike up really high in the balance point I can put on 3 and 4 now and I only started trying em within the last 2 or 3 rides

stock tires work fine. too little air pressure will make the them fold over n ****.

congrats though. too bad your a year late. j/k lol

it'll be second nature soon enough. i've done over 10 prolly more like 15 or 20.

the coolest though is clockin blox, then do ONE circle nice and tight, then clock more blox.
