  I want to give you a huge thank you for this video, it illustrated what I have been doing wrong with my feet. I have been on my toes, but not on the edge of the foot peg! Keeping my feet up close to the frame was causing major limitations in how much I could get my leg out!  It was a true AhHA moment! Thanks again!

  For people who have a bit of experience, but have hit a wall, this is my offering. The first one is an extension of your look…feet instruction.<br>1: LOOK where you’re going. FEEL what you’re doing.<br>2: If you’re not on the brakes, you’re on the throttle.<br>3: Everybody else is doing it. Why can’t we?<br>3: Smooth, smooth, smooth.<br>So;<br>1: Feel (not feelings), is an essential part of knowing your limit (if you’re not yet fast) and your bike’s limit (if you are fast). Also great for when someone approaches and asks you to race their (slightly different) bike.<br>2: this doesn’t mean full throttle, or full braking all the time. It means there is no time gap between the use of each tool. If you roll off, coast, then brake. You are slow. If you don’t move straight back to throttle when braking is complete, you are slow. And also leave yourself open to a front end lose.<br>3: You’ve got your track/race bike, but you don’t have speed. Question why. Ask fast people on the same bike/tyre/suspension combo (or near to yours) who know their reasons. Most fast racers (to a point) will always give good advice. But once you improve to a point, they (fairly) will now say, “it’s up to you”. This is when you must find good people to make a support crew for yourself.<br>3: Smooth, smooth, smooth. Is a calming measure to say to yourself. Or imagine someone who loves you saying it softly.<br>Also. CONCENTRATE. If you’ve read this far, you’ll notice 3: twice! And if not, you just crashed into the back of the rider in front of you!

  What a brilliant explanation, perfect balance of detail, not too indepth and confusing, not too vague.
