Know All the Ins and Outs of Riding a Dirtbike Before Getting on One

posted on 7 February 2012

Before riding a dirt bike, you "should" check out where everything is at, (especially the motocross brakes) Several years ago I was at a friends house and he invited me to ride his dirt bike. I was nervous but excited at the same time. I had never rode a dirt bike but it always looked like fun. I did not want to look like a wimp so I jumped on it and took off. I was having a blast until I seen I was approaching a link fence. Panicking I realized I did not bother finding out where the brake was prior to getting on. I did not need the brake I guess because the fence stopped me dead in my tracks. The dirt bike was messed up a bit but I was tore up. I did not want to look like a baby so I sucked in my breath (after I regain it) and held back the tears. That was many years ago. But to this day my pelvic is not right. Every time I get pregnant my pelvic bone hurts and pops horribly all through the pregnancies (4) So if you ever ride a dirt bike or anything of the sort don't worry about looking like a baby. Go get checked out at the emergency room or doctor. Because if not you may have problems down the road sometime.
