Comments

dpkayli: This book is absolutely fantastic. My boys ride dirt bikes and this has soooo much information to help them. But they just love to read it almost like it's a novel, because everything is presented so well. Probably one of the books that is picked up the most of all the books we have in our house (and we have a lot) by all my sons of different ages and my husband. All the other five-star reviews are spot-on.

Amazon Customer: Peterson is a seasoned rider and writer and it shows. I can't imagine a better guidebook for all aspects of dirtbiking, both on and off the bike. I recommend it even if you think you don't need it. It's that good.

What could be improved. Perhaps more pictures. For example, of the all-important "attack position." Or maybe a series of companion video snippets.

But really, it's great as it is.

J Fruscianti: A comprehensive, well written book with an excellent, well designed format. Includes explanations of the principle skills & techniques needed to ride as well as info on bikes, gear, & the relevant technology. If you want to know about dirt bike riding this is THE book to get.

Matt: This book had a lot of useful information for riders of all levels. It's format makes it easy to find and read the chapters which are relevant and ignore those which aren't, depending on your riding level.

Jørgen Mittertreiner: My son, 12 years old, started MotoCross, me as a NO Know How motorcycle, bought this book to both of us.
HIGHLY recommendable for all of you out there wanting to learn about the exciting sport of Dirt Riding.
Beautiful book, super layout and colors, everything explained and I mean EVERYTHING.

Glenn M. Mcclain: As an older dirt rider I bought this to reacquaint myself with the more current trends in dirt biking and off roading. This appears to be geared toward the novice rider or someone thinking of buying a dirt bike for the first time. That's fine as I haven't had an off road motorcycle in over twenty years. This has some great illustrations and is a nicely presented package. Won't make you an expert but gives you a basic foundation for you to gain additional information and experience. I enjoyed the suspension explanations as that has changed and improved a great deal during my time away from the sport. Worth the price.

CP: Amazing. This is the first review I've ever written after using Amazon for several years - had to do it because this book was so impressive. Everything from its layout to its graphics to its content is top notch. It has something for everyone from beginners to lifelong riders, kids to adults, and trail riders to mx racers, no matter the reader's previous technical know-how and tinkering abilities.

I can't even express how much time, frustration, and money this book has saved me and will continue to save me over the years by showing me how to do things the right way the first time around. It provides a solid foundation in each category related to dirt riding, upon which I can do Internet searches and refer to my manuals to get the remaining answers I need specific to my bikes and my needs. Troubleshooting hints are perhaps my favorite part, because otherwise it takes hours of surfing Internet forums and filtering out the idiots to get down to answers that actually make sense.

I wish there was a book like this for my other sports and hobbies.

Kudos to the team that put this book together. First manual I've ever read cover to cover.

Derrick: This is a pretty cool book for beginners and intermediate riders. It's got short easy tips on a wide range of subjects, all in full color. It has a lot of things I've had to search around the web for all in one place (like a checklist of what to carry with you on the trail). Quite frankly, I can't understand how they can sell a book so inexpensively considering the quality paper and full color printing. I haven't read the book cover to cover yet, but so far, I think it will be a reference I will refer to throughout the years.
