    New warning

    Derek Dorresteyn mentioned a few times that Alta has a different power delivery and therefore needs a different suspension tuning. Until now we only had some anecdotal evidence of Alta having more traction in certain situations. But I think this plentiful roost finally confirms what Derek has...

    Sold Alta Front Wheel Spacers

    Why would you take it apart? Is the rubber too wide?

    I think a 4-man team is a bare minimum for Alta bikes. If the bike takes 1.5 hours to charge and 45 minutes to discharge, then we need to have two bikes charging at all times while the 3rd bike is racing and the 4th is getting ready.

    I can bring a grill. It's a Weber medium-sized charcoal grill, round, I think 22" in diameter. Didn't we have a Google Sheets spreadsheet somewhere with all the required supplies to bring? It would be handy to track who is bringing what.

    SoCal Alta Ride Day at Cahuilla Creek MX

    I didn't go with the 1080p for this exact reason. There is a list of formats that YouTube likes, and the GoPro's default 1080p wasn't one of them. I just searched and I couldn't find that info right away. My info is at least 3 years old though, so maybe things have since changed.

    SoCal Alta Ride Day at Cahuilla Creek MX

    I think you might be using a frame rate or a resolution that YouTube does not fully support. I use 760 at 60fps. It helps to keep the picture from getting fuzzy at riding speeds.

    I'm locked in to race Supercross Futures at Anaheim 2!

    For supercross I'd definitely relalve it and also install a 63 N/mm rear spring and add 20-40 cc of oil and air pressure to the fork.

    SoCal Ride Day - Cahuilla Creek MX - Wednesday, December 19th, 2018.

    Bryan, you were wondering why my bike was quieter. I first said that it was because I have a taller gearing, so the motor does not spin as fast, and the chain does not move as fast. But I just also remembered that I have an o-ring chain. That chain makes a lot of difference at low speeds, but I...

    SoCal Alta Ride Day at Cahuilla Creek MX

    Awesome, Bryan! Thank you for putting together a video so quickly. It will take me some time to edit and upload my videos, I an not yet as pro at this as you are.

    SoCal Ride Day - Cahuilla Creek MX - Wednesday, December 19th, 2018.

    I am back in Havasu already, so no Gorman for me tomorrow, sorry. I need to recover from all the trial and error approach that I took when learning the new to me Cahuilla track, coming short a couple of times and over-jumping a couple of times more. This is why I do not like learning new tracks...

    Awesome! Great video. Thank you for making me look so fast! :ricky: I had a small tip-over on the very first lap. Accidentally found a deep rut in a turn, but my front Fatty tire does not work in ruts at all. :muutt:

    I am sure @TCMB371 will be editing and posting something soon. Most likely you will see him following me over jumps and through turns. I also have some footage following Bryan, but I would like rest and sleep first tonight before another such ride tomorrow.

    Amateur Supercross at Milestone

    Alright! I will wake up and get to the track when I get there! I am hoping to find that parts shop. I will be in a white ProMaster window van. Riverside is not great, I know, I will be careful.

    Of course I didn't read it correctly. Milestone MX Park Santa Claus is taking time out of his busy schedule and will be making major changes to the Main Track layout tomorrow. Track will be closed Tues 12/18 and back open Wed 12/19. All other tracks are open on regular schedule tomorrow! So...
