I think it's sorta like having a Pro Football player taking ballet. To become a good player you must first learn balance and finesse. Having a long term back ground in Trials like Geoff Aaron, Dougie Lampkin, Graham Jarvis, Cody Webb,
How could they not be top riders in Endurocross.
Just look back at this years Hellsgate. Over a 100 riders entered...Lampkin and Jarvis were the only two that finished. That says it all.
