- When someone says they want to learn how to ride enduro, this is what it looks like😂
We were all here at one point and as long as you are having fun that is all that matters. Today I bring my Nephson out on the CRF250F to learn some skills in the woods and progress to the next level (he ultimately wants a 2-stroke).
I lead the way on my 2024 KTM 300 XC-W and we battle our way through the woods with a few laughs along the way.
How many crashes can you count?

Damn that bike took a beating! He’s a lucky kid to have you instructing him, but with you also letting him use your bike! You’re an awesome guy, Tanner! Great video! 🔥
Thanks Ronnie! No better bike to learn on, I appreciate the support👊🏻
@@AdventureDailyanytime bro! I’m a forever fan of your work!
Nice work man. Not many people have the patience to slow their pace down to help others learn. Good on ya brother! I love riding at Wayne. I'm in Southern Ohio. Maybe I'll run into you sometime. Keep up the content..
The video doesn't do justice to how steep some of that was for someone learning the ropes. He did a great job, once he gains more confidence hes gonna fly! I'm just east of Columbus and will be picking up a crf250F soon. Im tired of picking up my KLR650😂
i bought a non running klr650 and by the time i fixed it up, i decided to sell her before i took it off road because it was kind of a pig lol. i didnt wanna find out how hard she'd hit the ground.
I'm 70, on my 30th (or so) bike which is a '21 CRF250L. Riding trails alone is something I no longer do because in some situations, I can't stand the bike up after dropping it. Just too heavy.
Would love to have an old Bultaco or OSSA like back in the 60's & 70's.
I started a year ago, i saw myself in that struggle a lot.
I loved this video!
This is 100% me right now, haha. Gotta start somewhere, right?
We were all there at one point! Thank you for the support👊🏻
Same here with the struggle
Man, they were some tough trail conditions for someone just starting out. Well done to you both for your patience and persistence, I hope you didn't break him and he sticks with it. I am sure he won't feel it now but next time on the bike it will feel much easier for the muscle memory. 👍
Great video! That barbed wire was a little sketchy 😳
Dang man, almost 100,000 subs! Thats awesome!
This was a super fun vid to watch! Reminds me of all the times I take a track guy out riding with me! Super cool vid! Keep it up!
Go Mason! You're doing great, i can already see so much progress! This sport requires tons of grit and you HAVE IT my man!
Keep in mind that your coach is pushing you harder than most people can handle. But if you can handle it, he will get you up to your potential faster than anyone and i promise you the journey is fun, challenging, and rewarding.
And if that bike is still geared for highway speeds over 40mph then keep in mind that great selection will be challenging and you will likely have to slip the clutch a ton in the higher gear for those tougher climbs. And compare to Tanner, he is on the easiest bike in the world to ride in those conditions. The bike will never replace skill, but once you get the fundamentals down it is fun on a bike like that because it's easier to have more fun for a longer day.
Love the training vids . Kudos to the kid !
Holy moly! that is one knarly trail. He did an awesome job. And good job teaching!
I feel your frustration never give up👍👍
Absolutely love the comparison vids between you onboard the beastly 300 and the beginner friendly CRF. Maybe a vid comparing riding the two bikes and how you adjust your techniques to match the very different abilities of a friendly trail bike and woods racer. I ride and both and find adjusting between the two a lot of fun and quite challenging.
Another fun video. AD School of Trail Riding and Wire Finding.
Hey thank you Vinny!
That was funny. Love the Trails...and none of it looked easy to me so Lex's bro did fairly well. No doubt he'll progress fast.
those bikes are actually great to learn on. i had a TTR230 and a YZ250... the TTR was so fun on the tight trails and just fooling around. they last forever too.. or the motor does. seen lots of the forks die.
Bonding through suffering ⚒️⚒️⚒️ Love to see it.
Hahhh, awesome video. That young man appeared to get his butt whupped the whole vid, but he did more learning on this day's ride than ever before, and he's definitely a different rider the next day. Great stuff.
You gave Mason a hard time but, all in good fun. It looked like his skills really improved with your guidance! I'm glad the barbed wire didn't really do much damage.
Nice job on the trails guys, looks like some gnarly shit!
Wish I could find trails like this in the cinci area! Still poking a prodding around. Awesome content as always.
What a baptism of fire. He started to improve though.
Terrain looks awesome
We have some good riding here in the rainforest
Notification squad 🎉
Love to see it🙌🏻
~Top Ten No Fear Rider Myths~

That kids doing better thank i probably would! congrats to him not easy.
Dude this brought back some bad memories hahaha.
i finally got to do some enduro on my pig of a bike drz400, and god was it fun!
“Adventure Daily single track school to daily adventure” 🤔 mmmm id like atleaast a dollar for that idea 😉
Come down to Windrock! I’ll show you around on some good single here too
“The real Enduro was the bike lifts we made along the way.” -Mason
Took like a champ
That little fail compilation in the beginning actually made me feel a bit better about trying to get into Enduro riding. I tried a few weeks ago, and it went badly enough to make me need a new helmet and knee brace
Its a process for sure. Not sure what bike your riding but I can't stress how important clutch control is. It should be uncomfortable in the beginning. Stick with it and its a sport you can do into your 60's.
Cool video! Comical too 😂 can you please tell me what kind of camera mount you guys use? I'm guessing body mount camera? I live in Central Pennsylvania coal country and back in the 70s we used to climb one of the bony piles up here. There was a whole family of crazy people across the road and the Dad used to come outside and shoot at us with a shotgun. Now the BBs never reached us so we just usually flipped him the peace sign and ignored him. Please understand that this whole family was crazy and they didn't have a floor in the house. They lived on a dirt floor and had an outhouse for a bathroom. Also they kept 2 horses in the house and I remember the horses head looking out the window 😂😂 true story!
around 2004 in the eastern KY area I ran into some barbwire strung across a trail neck height too! luckily i was going slow enough to slam on my brakes in time. Its like people are trying to seriously injure/kill trail riders out here.
I feel masons pain I started learning to ride for maybe 3 months on and off and went straight into hard enduro in the rain and could not stay on my bike 😂
I know this feeling - I have a buddy that's teaching me and another newbie how to ride trails, and I always seem to be the one to drop my bike. The one thing that your buddy here is definitely doing right is taking all the drops in stride. If you get mad and frustrated, you're not going to learn a damn thing.
That is, of course, unless he was having tantrums off camera, lol.
We were all there at one point! He was exhausted that's for sure but still in good spirits.
@@AdventureDaily definitely learning on hard mode, too. Looks like it was greasy as hell out there.
Who needs the gym when you've got bike-weighted squats every 5 minutes, eh?
Don't know how many people started this way and said this isn't for me. When you know you know, but when you don't it's very frustrating. The lucky ones start young, but for mature beginners it's very daunting. I'm 66 and have never been able to get my son, now 38 to pick up the sport. A couple days like this was enough for him.
it is the same bulshit of slef learning by faults and tirals. the speciality of narrow brain enduro culture.. Better take clinics, lessosn, even trial practice. It is always the guy showing to the other showing to the other... Sorry but it makes me sad and ost me a lot of time. He is most of time pedaling with feet... Should go on a flat place and practice balance control...
Damn it looks slick as snot out there
It was a wet one!
I remember that feeling lol on my Yamaha xt 250 lol
We have all been there haha
😂get that kid some wheaties 😂
I swear Mason looks exactly like Alexis with his helmet on.
Some of that ride was tough even for an experienced rider.
I want to see Alexis do that SAME trail.
I wonder what those clutch baskets look like
Hi, I'm from Cleveland, and I bought an xc-w 250 like 2 months ago, and I like to ride with you one day. I don't know many places around to ride
Failing and falling is a way to learn.
When a toddler learns to walk, they fall down and don't even think about giving up.
Looks like my trouble in sand. Ass kicking staying up straight 😂
Putting that young man through the ringer he will thank you for that later
Good thing is he actually enjoyed it!
Greater love has no one than this, that he would see his bike laid down for his friends.
That was DEEP.
It's always good to torture the newbies, that's how you learn. But, it doesn't help having a shitty tire!!! The guys who tought us would take us on 8 hour rides, on trials bikes. That's how you learn to suffer, and bike skills!
My first enduro experience was in Georgetown lake Montana on a 432 pound klr650 at 18yrs old and under a buck 20 in weight☠️ how did I not lay down that bike I have no clue
any links to the guy that strung the wire up/got decapitated?
I couldn't find an article / anything online. If someone does please post it here.
Brother when backing down a hill the best thing to do is using the clutch as a brake. Engine on or off. Front brake can be used as a supplement but it's so weak backing up, good way to go sliding back
Good vid otherwise
Me and a buddy riding some old railroad tracks here in Ohio and someone put a chain across them I stopped in time my buddy didn't and hit it wide open thought for sure he was hurt bad just bruised up he went head over like 3 times looked ugly
At 1:13 you told him to use the rear brake while going through the slippery part, I'm curious are we supposed to apply the rear brake in such road conditions or the front brake? Also how am I going to apply rear brake if I have both of my feet down due to the fear of slipping/falling down?
There was no need for him to have his legs sticking out like that besides him being too scared. could easily have just stood up on the pegs and used the rear brake while keeping his weight back.
@elobiretv yeah but what if the tires slip (especially front), you're going straight to the ground. I guess the likelihood of that also depends on the condition of the tires, but if there is very less traction, I find it difficult to balance the bike and prevent it from wanting to go down.
@@basicbeaver you just need to have confidence in the bike. The front wheel isn't going anywhere but down the hill. For downhill breaking you should use the rear to provide some stability and the front to slow down. Don't brake on the slippery bits, you want to be doing your braking where theres the most traction
FEET ON THE PEGS!
He was loosing all kinds of easy traction because he wasnt weighing the bottom of the bike. I get it though, bike was taller and he was afraid of falling after falling dozens of times.
Easier said than done! Muscle memory and confidence will come. Thanks for watching🙌🏻
Be nice if you still had the x-trainer for him.
Hi
Ello!
Getting him more comfortable on a bicycle would help. Get him out mountain biking. Also you should get into mountain biking for your channel just saying
That would be fun!
He would have benefitted a lot more from just doing some basic practice drills. Would have helped if your advice wasn't pure crap as well. Why would you use the front brake to do a hill start when you could just hold it on the clutch?
Too hard core for someone learning. I don't know if you were teaching him or just making him hate it so much he never wants to go back.
Yhea fore sure,lend him an twostroke 250 or 300 he will have an easyer low grunt bike fore sure!😅
He needs to learn to keep his feet on the pegs too, probably wouldn't have dropped it so much
Dumbest question ever, but how do I meet people who can teach me how to ride better? None of my friends ride and I don't really know where to take my dualsport to actually practice shit like this.
Not a dumb question, FB groups are a place to start but really just get out and ride with locals in your area and you will end up meeting some awesome people!
Location can be difficult but I assure you there are places everywhere just have to get creative.
@AdventureDaily thanks man! 🙏
I'd rather go to the gym, then spend that kind of energy throwing a bike around. Just my 2cents!!
I would say that terrain was a bit much for him. You are not learning anything if its a continuous struggle. I am thinking of getting back to riding after 25yr break and eyeing a CRF250F, but this video was very discouraging, lol. My last bike was a Yamaha IT200 25yrs ago though, so maybe I retained some of the skills and it won't be that frustrating.
If he was your age, maybe. He is a young buck with plenty of energy and learned a lot of valuable skills this day which progressed him a lot quicker.
Exhausting maybe, but to claim he didn't learn anything because he struggled is a joke. It's HARD ENDURO, we all struggle that's the point lol.
Thanks for watching! The 250F is a great bike to learn.
@@AdventureDaily True, maybe ideal scenario would have been to find a short challenging section where you can easily circle back and just keep repeating until you get it right. I am thinking that is what I will do until I feel confident again to go on a long trail. And age is not a factor!! 😃
Almost looks like he perfect bike in this situation would have been a xtrainer..
I don't condone man trapping trails and if you own property and want to keep riders off it ,
1 Post signs,;
2 fell trees and put logs or rocks on trails to deter unwanted riders;
3 get the word out not to ride on your land.
If idiots continue to disregard that then get the cops out as soon as you hear them on your land.
Tell the kid that Enduro comes with a standing approach. He will never progress if he keeps sitting on the bike all the time during the ride.
Fishing line, f****** fishing line!!!! 😩🤬🤬🤬
I see you only wear safety glasses while riding. I nearly lost my eye and was very close to death . Hate to see that happen to you. They removed nearly 9in of wood out of my eye orbit . Biggest piece was 3in. Pm me so I can show you the injury and what they removed. You'll never not wear goggles again. I promise
It's possibly one of the worst dirtbikes to learn endouro on. Get the poor guy a 2 stroke 300.
You can teach bike skills without being in steep muddy woods and making them crash and pick the bike up over and over and over again. Looks like a good way to ruin a future offroader.
