Briefly...
often. I don't mind when the bike is
moving. I feel I'm able to take the grip
and understand it more or less. If it's
coming from a motocross background
or whatever, I don't know. It's just
something that comes natural, but it's
also something you have to work on.
Over the race weekend if it's wet, I
will ride."
