Not sure you'll find that many wet leaves in the desert...? x

Also, I'm presuming that was a piece of private ground, and not just some roadside verge you were carving up in front of the public driving along the lane? (not wanting to get all TRF on you like, but illegal riding is not the best thing to post on Youtube...)

ps. to get a better feel for what the bikes might be like in the desert (not the soft sand, but gravel piste at least), you could get hold of the OS map of Salisbury Plain and head down there for the day (or two) - but do please stick to the legit vehicular rights of way... if only to stop you getting shot by the Military x

Have you Ridden in the deserts before ? I have just moved back to the UK from the sultanate of Oman where we had a great Bike club mostly enduro. One of the guys Youcef cummings is going to be riding the next dakar.

Any way back to the point Hot dry sand is really tough, I used to have 45mm bar risers fitted to my bike so i could stand comfortably. lower the tire pressures to 12-13 psi and keep the weight on the back wheel. If you let the throttle off you will get bad wiggles, I have seen may on road rider get out on the sand with great hopes and come off quite badly. And remember keep drinking lots and lots of water i used to try a get a liter an hour down my neck out there. Good luck in the sand
