Trail riding - event organising


The sport of trail riding and supermoto is on the upswing in the country. Thanks to the availability of affordable locally assembled trail bikes. Kawasaki is having the biggest market share with the KLX 150 model.
Naturally the sport is growing day by day until eventually the bikes become expensive again due to the demand and supply theory. Many aftermarket companies take this opportunity to make the kill, for our people will not be satisfied with the standard machine. The sale of riding gear is also gaining momentum, well it is good for our overall economy.
Anyway, my point is we as riders have to emphasise more on the enjoyment of riding not otherwise i.e. upgrading and trying to look good. Each rider must be able to enjoy his machine to the fullest hence proper riding technique is a must. Accident and injuries can be avoided. Trail riding is not trial and error but it is a science by itself.
Many groups organise trail outings each weekend. This organise rides must be proper with every aspect of safety taken into consideration hence an experience leader is required to lead each ride.
Better be prepared than sorry.
