In this regard, I would like to ask you (and other WDs) what the solution is.  Would it be riding alone or far apart from fellow riders?  Also, does this not become an issue at off-road training courses like Countrytrax or ADA?

At Country Trax, the rider goes through the sand under the watchful eye of the instructor. The next rider is waved through as soon as the previous one is through the sand pit and it is safe.

At most courses, they teach you the basic techniques to master the obstacle. There is just not enough time to allow enough practice during the course to enable the rider to master the techniques and obstacle. The idea is that you ride away with more knowledge and skill, and that YOU go PRACTICE what you've learned.

Personally, in sand/mud/technical terrain I prefer to allow a big gap between me and the rider in front, sometimes out of sight is better, so that I can ride my own speed, focus on my own line and to ensure no one takes pictures of the unavoidable  :biggrin:.

There is a saying: "If you ride alone, you die alone." Thus, I prefer to ride with a buddy or two. But still apply the "rule" above.  :thumleft:

I have pictures, hoeveel geld het jy

Moerse enjoyable read. Well done, Jaco.

....and must say agree with the American thing...having recently been over...met some really nice folks there...

I am 40/60 on this one, 60% of the Americans I have met and worked with was arrogant beyond believe and had the "America is God's gift to world rule and liberation and whatnot" attitude. The rest is good honest people that I like.

Thanks for the report Jacko... :thumleft:

+1
a guy asked me why we haven't invaded Zimbabwe yet, it's for their own good
my reply: hows that working for you in Iraq

You could have also replied that Zimbabwe does not have any oil!
