DIRT VS STUNTING

was talking to a buddy earlier, and got to talking about how when stunting in cold weather you got warm easliy after riding for a while... he was saying that he got warmer in the cold riding dirtbikes "because it requires more movement" i told him he obviously puts more effort into riding (not FMX OR STUNTING A DB) the dirtbike than he does stunting. or maybe i just never put enough effort into dirtbikes, but when i rode in the cold i stayed cold, or colder that when i started riding to the point where my knuckels felt like i been hit by a brick

what do you guys think? i know some of you ride dirt, and stunt.... which "requires more movement"?

 

my knuckles feel bad when ridin...lots all first gear.


moto-x i shut her down in early novmeber so im not sure bout that. we did ride some snow ovals a couple times tho.

 

I usually wear an enduro jacket off road anyways and only ever stunted at night

and im talking lot riding type stunting... combo's and such, not just guys practicing standups

 

yeah...like lots. under 25mph and shiet right?

 

merk steps around the entire lot to warm you up, coasters to cool you down.

 

3rd/4th gear coasters to cool my bike down!!!

 

I used to stay warm on my kx 125 in 30 degree weather but I'd really have to be rippin around the pit. whoops will keep you warm to

 

its alot windier in big parking lots than it is in the woods

 

no dirt guys to give their opinion on this? (not necesarially talking woods riding, just DIRT in general VS parking lot stunting)
mtself i work up a sweat stunting, and never have dirt riding in the cold (but im not much a dirt rider and never have been... more a trail rider when i rode dirt)

 

i know riding my 50 on the ice i stay plenty warm

 

yea idk i jus got my bike about 6 months ago and by sum miracle its till reletivcly warm in illinois where i live so i dont really have an answer for u and i never rode my dirt bike when it was all that cold out but i had gloves and stuff so i never really noticed much

 

The only thing that gets cold on me are my knuckled, to the poing were I cant move them.

Motorcycle hand warmers anyone?

 

Up here we'll stunt in +5c (approx 40 degrees), after the first 10 minutes of hitting the spot you are ready to take your jacket off !

Cheers
