"8. Keep KTM riders behind you Unless it's Dan....no stopping him....with or without a front brake."

This is worth explaining: My brother in law, Dan (vman screenname) at one point on the trail broke the keeper pin, and spit one front brake pad out of his caliper. He then took his front brake lever off and proceeded to ride the rest of the day. It's a good thing he did too, because I needed him to help me negotiate some of the trails since there's been some logging in the area and I didn't remember where some of the new trails started.

Dan is an animal. Good thing he rode that XR 75 as a kid with no regard to the front brake!!!!

Really, Dan is one of our top A riders, and is a hoot to ride with.
