I was playing around wit ht eidea of possibly getting a dirt bike down the road. A lot of people talk about it and love it, but then I realized i know fuck all about it.
So that brings me to my question. What are some set of steps that I should follow to get into it slowly? Is there such thing, or just get a bike find a dirt road and go.
What are some of the good beginner bikes? I would like to get dedicated dirt bike I think. What are some good ones to start with, and which ones should I stay away from? I saw a big difference in bike prices. Some go for $1K, some for $4K+. Are more expensive ones that much better?
Would you reccomend any courses 1st, or just go out and ride? I know Bill at 5th gear has his dirt riding outings, so maybe that? I would like to one day do something like American Supercamp or Texas Tornado boot camp. Possibly do that at the beginning?
Like I said, lots of questions and some help and guidance would be good
