LIFE ON TWO WHEELS VLOG

Life on Two Wheels Vlog | Dirt Bike Overdose

Presented by Bell Helmets

Is there such a thing as too much dirt bike riding? I think there is! I know, I know…working in a field that is most people’s hobby is an absolute privilege, but the two weeks leading up to the Day in the Dirt Motocross Grand Prix consisted of twice as much track time as I am accustomed to. Throw in the fact that my pal Scrub Daddy and his recent traumatic brain injury are still weighing heavily on my mind, and I found myself feeling pretty burnt out as the Thanksgiving holiday arrived. No matter – a life on two wheels is better than any other, and I “somehow” managed to survive. Haha! The DITD race was riddled with “mechanicals” (or electricals?) as I chose to race a Stark Future Varg in all but one of my classes beforehand. Mud clogged the radiator fan beneath the seat and caused a thermal overheat warning of sorts… A couple of my races ended early, but I wasn’t complaining!

    Hello! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any issues with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing months of hard work due to no backup. Do you have any solutions to prevent hackers?
