Smile Watch out DDers, learnt a new skill...
Up to now I've been largely incapable of scraping my knees. It's hindering my progress on track, so today we've been out to a quiet roundabout and gone round and round until it happened Pleased to bits, just hope I can use it to my cornering advantage in the racing now too



Only taken 8 years of riding to suss out...not that I'm a slow learner or anything

I know the feeling because I have only recently got my knee down and its a feeling similar to passing your test.

It's very satisfying after trying so hard and failing at it for so long!
