We have the sticky clay over here in Alberta, sometimes a coat of cooking spray oil under the fenders and body helps keep the mud from getting too heavy. I have noticed most enduro guys are not keen on steep descents, my downhill mtn bike racing history helped me overcome this. Now a blind drop off is no problem. Grip it and rip it mates!

#CROSSTRAININGENDUROSKILLS hey, you can create a video you need to / can do when your engine in the water has fallen. So water has gotten inside There is one movie on the internet but they do it in a two stroke. I'd love to see what you can do locally if your engine e.g. have fallen into a stream. How sure can ensure that you can still drive on. In my view, it is best to ensure that the engine comes back to running as quickly as possible. So that all the water is pumped out. it might be a very good video / tip

Love the disclaimer once more! Great vid, great tips !! Got a couple more to add a: throttle control. Take some time to practice moving the bike with 10% throttle. That with low air pressure gives a super non-slippery result where others slip around b: Tubliss! The only way to get your air pressure down to 0 PSI by only making a 2 min stop and continue hitting rocks and logs when you find them. 100PSI at your rim assure the integrity of your rim even with no air in your tires. You should see the traction then... Check that tech out man. i am in love with it!

Good vid. I went on a 2 day ride in the SW of WA a few weeks ago and as i knew it was going to be a wet ride, I re-watched this for some pointers and I am glad I did. Riding one gear higher really worked and the 450 pumpkin tractored its way up everything I pointed it towards. On a side note - I get rid of the big girl and got myself a '12 TE 300 Berger two weeks ago and now have to change the way I ride.

One tip, If you ride in more of Rocky muddy terrain, I recommend jumping your rear tire to 8-10psi and your front tire 10-12psi to reduce pinch flats, you might lose a little bit of traction but as long as you are using a 110-120 Rear tire with a gummy compound use will be doing great out there

Where I live the terrain has alot of rocks in the earth and Clay is rare. So mud bogs very rarely give me issues. I test them with a stick. If the bottom feels solid and doesn't go above the tires I go through. Also it may be better to go "through" the mud not around if the whole trail is flooded. As you end up widening the trail by going off the trail.

I was thinking of this video and applied many of your suggested techniques through a muddy weekend of riding at Hollister Hills SVRA. My EXC 200 was in need of work, so I brought my CRF230L and was amazed at how well it did....even with Trail Wing 302 tires. Having a more powerful bike to spin that back tire to keep it clean would certainly have been beneficial though as both tires were so caked at times that it was nearly impossible to stay upright. I also got to practice some wet rocky riding and applied your "keep your legs loose and let the bike move around" techniques and they proved valuable. Only fell on the rocks once and knocked my steering out of alignment, but didn't break anything. Success! Can't thank you enough for all the work you've put into these videos!

Probably for a short section of mud. In long sections of mud, you can maintain constant throttle, but you may need a lot of traction to get out, which is uphill. So this method should be used toward the end of a long mud section. Where in Australia are you? I'd love to ride with you guys.

According to Bernie Schrieber'r book (circa 1982), when riding in mud you should pull up on the handlebars. Hard! Hard enough to make an ugly face. Pulling up on the bars puts more pressure on the pegs, thus weighting the rear end, giving the rider more traction. Bernie Schrieber (U.S.) was World Trials Champion in 1980. Even though his book is now 34 years old, everything in it still applies. Ha! I can read the book a lot better than I can ride my Trials bike. I suck at riding in mud, we don't ever have any in Southern California. Great vids, by the way! Thanks.

I just had the front wheel turn left when I was in a muddy rut slippery desert mud. I instinctively put my left foot down, and it just slipped out as I was still moving forward. My leg bent sideways outward at the knee, and I can absolutely not believe I didn't break my knee. I am in the recliner now, in tremendous pain, and afraid to ride again. I actually did it twice. I kept going and did the exact same crash 5 minutes later, even worse. Heard my leg pop. I can't seem to avoid the instinct to put my foot down, and it has seriously messed me up.

Ouch. If you heard a pop then chances are you've done the ACL or some other ligament. 😢 Was this despite wearing knee braces? They usually reduce the chances to a fair extent. Maybe see if you can get a rebate on some for your recovery then use them for dirt riding? The CTi braces are usually claimable.

I have a question about the tyre pressures. Im pretty sure the weight of the bike and the rider matters. You recommended 6-8 psi, and I think the bikes you ride weigh around 220 pounds or something. I have a Honda nx 650 that weighs 340 pounds or so, so I think the tyre pressure could be a bit higher than yours, because the tyre print is already wider due to the heavier weight. Don't take it wrong though, I don't ride in places like you with a Dominator 650... It's just a simple question of does the bike weight matter or not, when setting the tyre pressure :) Nice video though, keep it up

+CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES When I am riding slow, I sit down and use my feet as pivit points to keep the bike upright... (Being careful not to place my foot in a dangerous position) When I am riding faster, I let the front end kinda do what it wants to a certain extent and I control the bike with my legs... If I am going to plow over some ruts or rocks I will make sure my handle bars stay true but I will not man handle them and put my weight on them. I want that front end to float, so I keep all my weight on my pegs and back seat. The reason I steer with my legs is that the bike will turn when leaned. But if I use my handle bars, the bikes front end will not turn as fast as it should and it washes out kinda the same way as braking... But the direction it washes out can be uncontrollable and scary... Also grabbing the bike with my knees and steering with my legs and stomach has many advantages in other terrain as well... Especially when you are in the air you have SO MUCH MORE CONTROL! I just got back from riding mud, snow, and slush today: and I have to say when I tried steering with my arms and the handle bar instead of my feet and pegs: I had to go far far slower in order to be in control. it was almost immediately apparent to me that handle bar input to control the bike was not the fastest way... (I did a little experiment just to make sure I wasn't full of kangaroo dung) Take note: I am not trying to say you let go of the handle bars entirely, but it's like sledding (if you have ever been), you don't control the snow sled with your arms, but it does help to have them on the sled....

As an owner of a kx 250f I would say yes but you need to grab another gear before slipping it and higher revs and dumping when it’s real rough

Hey guys, been following your tutorials for about 6 months now and just entered my first hare scramble this past Saturday, man am I beat! I finished 7th out of 10 so I consider this good for a first timer, but the thing that really kept my speed down was how close the branches were to my bars. I use bark busters, I am just worried about hitting them, every time my pace got faster, I usually hit a branch. Any tips at how to deal with this problem? thanks!
@crosstrainingenduro

199mrtarzan well done, pacing yourself in races is hard hey? i have heard of some guys trimming their bar ends down a bit. also if you run hand guards instead of bark busters you'll drop a few mm in width. usually though i just stand on the pegs and move the bike from side to side, unless of course there's a tree either side at the same time.

Come to the Pacific Northwest. We'll teach you everything you need to know mud....and river rock.... and slippery tree roots... and banana slugs... *big* squishy banana slugs. See, we don't really know what dust is. Might have to get one of you Aussies to send us a sample. ;) kzitem.info/news/bejne/lWyg34aMiGaCqKg This isn't my video or my group but it shows Tahuya (in Belfair, Washington) on one of its drier days. This is one of the many wider quad trails but it'll give you an idea of how much river rock and water we have. (There are also lots of tight single track and 4wd trails out there, too.)

CROSS TRAINING, ENDUROCROSS & ENDURO TECHNIQUES Yeah, it's not too bad. I think it's got somewhere around 120 miles or so of trails. The single track stuff there can get a little gnarly, and is where I head if I'm in the technical mood, but usually reserve Tahuya when I'm in the need for speed. ;) (I've got enough technical stuff nearer the house and Tahuya's an hour and a half away.)

for low traction training, I like to ride my yamaha vino 125 scooter (with slick street tires) in my alfalfa field after rains or frost... almost zero traction and if you slow down the wheels cake up with mud and glue themselves to the fenders, so there's no pussy footing around... I'm not even joking.
