I just bought a copy of How To Win Motocross by Gary Bailey off ebay, I had a copy of it in '75 but I seem to have misplaced it.
It should be a blast to read it again. Anyone else read it/own it?
-
Yeah, I've got a copy John.
-
hmm I vaguely remember it. Let us know ant tips!
-
I've had mine since early 70's. Particuarly relevant as I'm going to race my MK6/7 Bulty this w/e at Traralgon. J
-
I've got it. Try Gary's "dig your foot in near the back wheel cornering tip"...... :'( :'( :'(
-
Yeah i've had a copy since the late 70's.. some cool pics of young David in there riding a Bully with his dad.

That was the one tip that has stuck in my mind for 38 years, I use to use it when I only had 4" of travel.

I will always remember " never follow other riders lines" you can't win following other riders

In the "60s i bought Scrambles and Motorcross by Les Archer. A great read. Unfortunately I lent to someone, still waiting to read it again but I forget who'se got it and he probably forgets who owns it!
pancho.

Jeff Spencer's book, Total training for Motocross is another good one worthy or reading and following too
-
Another good book is 'Motocross-Techniques, Training and Tactics by Brad Lackey and Len Weed which was published in 1979.
