Every time I think I'm a short rider, I watch Megs, and no longer feel short. And every time I think I'm a good rider, I watch Megs, and no longer think I'm good. 😄
5'6 here. I stand almost 100% of the time when I'm off road, even on flat gravel. Everything changed for me when I started being a daily rider. Commuted in the snow, rain, hail, sun, wind, etc. Every single day on the bike. Standing off road was natural to me because after so much saddle time, I felt like my balance melded with the bike's, even if I only have one foot on the bike. I've been riding 17 years now and still practice the fundamentals, on top of the additional skills, and it has paid off in dividends.
Husband has rode all of his life, so he pretty much sucks at articulating how to ride. Thanks to you I have really stepped up my game and in so doing, I have been able to teach my four kids such important techniques. Much love and respect from Wyoming 😊
Awsome Megs! I'm almost 57 and ride a 250 xcf lowered 2". I'm 5'7" and only have been riding about 4 years. Every time I watch one of your videos it gives me a boost of confidence! Keep up the great work!
At 5'7" you're tall enough for that bike, I'm 38 years old, started riding 3 years ago, I'm 5'4" and ride a yz250fx which is a tall bike and I haven't lowered it at all, and I can ride it on technical trails and I'm not a good rider but I try my best, it's all about practice.
It looks like you control the bike so well that you make it weightless and your movement reminds me of horse riders. It’s fantastic to watch. You were riding trails that look impossible. Not to mention the guy who was riding behind you well enough to film it! I’m 5’8” and always find bikes too tall for me, but I realise that it’s not an excuse and that I need to learn the proper skills. I hope to train one day. Thanks for this inspiring video!
Greetings from New Zealand Megs!!! Thank you for making this video, just excellent for all us vertically challenged people out there doing it😄of which I definitely am lol. Ride safe and all the best with your travels and coaching.
Great stuff. So appreciate everything you say. At 5'1" there's not much dabbing going on for me without dumping the bike. I don't think average sized folks appreciate how challenging it is to ride a big dirt bike when you're short but you sure make it look easy. I'm practicing my balance daily and maybe I need to commute on my bike like "ridethroughlife". Thanks for the great videos and tips.
Hey bud I’m 6” but I had a work accident n lost both my legs. I’ve ridden with no legs, with motocross legs that made me 5”4 then 5”8 n now back to 6”. 5”4 is hard haha Holly crap I give it to yas hey. 5”8 is the best haha enjoy ya riding mate don’t ever give it up. I live and survived for it. It’s all I think about.
Brilliant. Iam not young female or short. I do have a chronic condition which had taken much of my bike skills away. Watching you push through your challenges is inspirational. Great skills from a great teacher❤
I recently bought a new Husky 150 TE. In order to get even one ass cheek on it, I have to lean it way over. This video (and others from you, that I watch constantly) has been a total game changer for me!!! Thank you sooo much for this. I've only been riding dirt for a couple years, and can honestly say that you've taught me about 90 percent of what I know. Love ya. and thank you again. You're amazing.
You're so right about standing. It should be said more often. Much better control AND you're always in a position to jump out instead of crashing under your bike like my wife does all the time ;-)
That is so inspiring. 5'-5" Here and I have always felt I have a disadvantage. Even with arm length and weight distribution. But I will keep trying to follow your example.
I'm 5'5" & play around with twin shock trials bikes, trials riding is great for balance, confidence & reading the terrain, the more trials obstacles i ride the more confident i become in the bush :)
Thanks for the video! While I'm 6'4" my wife is 5'6" and is struggling with getting into offroad riding. Your tips will help her a lot and show her that vertically-challenged people can ride too! Hi from Kamloops...
5'6, Balance is key, I ride with someone who's 6'4. We go through kinda nasty stuff, his feet are always dabbing, I just gotta keep moving or to not hit anything from the side
Fall seven times, stand up eight. I am 5'1" on a crf 250x and thanks to your videos, I can now go on the "guys rides" and be "impressive" so thanks, Megs 🙏. I also struggle most in the gnar! I wear out faster because I can't sit and paddle🙄. Do you ride any rocky downhill, tight singletrack switchbacks? I struggle with those, it would be great to see a video of your technique!
Absolute Legend and love the videos, definately feels safer to sit in some technical stuff but it's an illusion your brain creates as you have way less control to counteract any problems. Keep up the good work
It’s the mental block most people have a problem with. These full size bikes are huge and for us vertically challenged folk, nearly come up to our chests. Everyone from free runners to enduro riders must overcome that mental block to maximize the bikes potential, because regardless of height and weight, these bikes are built to balance and conquer all terrains. They can be tuned to suit the rider as well to ease the learning curve.
This is really encouraging, I think our Yamaha AG200 weighs 112 kg (247lb) and it's not really designed for this sort of thing but I can definitely see how some of these tips would help a lot. Yesterday I had to ask my Dad to do a creek crossing for me, it had a lot of loose rocks and they get all slimily and slippery. I was exhausted (if you wanna know how I got so tired read the backstory) and this crossing is a known bike killer. I can just about touch on either side tippy toes on the AG but the real problem is the fuel tank is so big I struggle to reach the handle bars comfortably from the seat. It is annoying as all heck to watch my Dad sitting back on the seat cushion, waving his feet around, dabbing left and right without even leaning over either to balance or reach the handle bars. In this case it was mostly that I was so tired I thought I'd probably dump it in water if I tried, I didn't even think about the height difference would make it easier him. OMG, I'm having a revelation, this is why creek crossing are so much easier for my father, brother and cousin, if they hit a rock and lose control they can put a foot out and rebalance by the time I put my foot down the bikes too far tipped over to rebalance and I end up stacking it in the creek. Anyways I'll take your advice and work on balance, and riding on the pegs as that does make reaching the handle bars easier. Si backstory... Once upon a time (AKA yesterday) we were mustering, I'd already gotten bogged once, got out of the bog and immediately stuck in a hole had to lay the bike over and drag it a metre up hill stand it back up, push it to a safer place to get back on then back wheel spun out cuz of the mud from the bog and the hole, I was trying to get over a mound and bike dropped, I rolled down the hill and the dog stared at me from the top of the mound. This is when the chain came off, which was awesome because I wasn't trail riding, I was mustering cattle, I also wasn't were I was supposed to be mustering, I'd decided to take a short cut (into a bog) so I had to push the bike a couple of hundred metres around the side of a (very steep) hill to get the bike somewhere I could leave it, fortunately my sister turned up at this point on the horse so she went to get help, then I just coasted down to the bottom of a hill and almost made it across the dry creek crossing pushed the bike up and over to the nearest flat ground, spend about half an hour establishing that yes the chain was too loose and no Dad we can not fix it with the tools in the tractor. We do get the chain back on and it doesn't come off when I bounce over the next gully crossing but when we get to the next water crossing three little calves bugger off, my sister gets off the horse but the reins get all tangled so I get off the bike go belting down stream grab the horse just as the horse sorts the reins out herself, my sister comes back from down stream she can't get across to where the calves are, I throw her the reins run back up stream run along a log that crosses the creek and jump, somehow not falling in the water. I'm across but the vegetation is dense and the bank is steep, so I'm running along at a crouch trying to get in front of the calves, I get two of the calves to turn back but there's one a couple of metres above me and somewhere behind me. So I decide to climb the bank, and by climb I mean grab hold of river grass and pull myself up by my arms because the ground was so soft I couldn't get any purchase. I takes me about five minutes to get level with the calf cuz it turns out he was a lot higher then I thought. It's a good thing I'm short because it also turns out there was a whole bunch of cockspur. So, to recap I'm really high up, there is nothing to catch myself on if I fall, I can't see the thing I'm chasing, everyone is screaming at me, my shirt is caught on a cockspur, I'm still half crouched over from doing the limbo under said cockspur and when I tried to stand up I got hopelessly tangled in some other kind of vine. Yay! my sister just told me the calf is now headed in the right direction... good! excellent! wonderful!!! how do I get down from here? I do a bit of controlled falling and stumble into two calves just as they decide to turn around again. My sister takes one of the calves off my hands but hands me the horse reins again. I can't hold on to both for long but we've already had one reins related incident today... It was gross I pulled those disgusting reins through the bridle with my teeth. I manhandled the calf over to the creek, my sister came back and got it, Dad grabbed the horse. I collapsed into the sand and was very tired. Then turned to the camera, office style, and said "why the hell are you still reading this lame-ass story about my sucky-ass day?" Goodnight
Look into getting a clake left hand rear brake. An awesome small female rider told me about it. It's fantastic and I'm 6'4" and I stay on the pegs way more with it and it is a real game changer for having fun going down hill!
Megs, how about a “short riders training tour” - at least to Colorado! 5’5” guy here, and 125lbs soaking wet. We little trail riders could always use a little help! Thank you so much for your videos! Super helpful and encouraging!
Hey John! I am currently on tour. I just finished three days of clinics in Sargents, CO. I was in Montrose doing 4 days of clinics in May as well. Now I’m out east!
I am so guilty of sitting way too much. Even though I am still riding a TE Husky 250 at 61 years old, I could be better.. This is very informative and well done! If you ever get over Mid-Atlantic area and do a clinic, I am in ! !!
Enduros have evolved into a sport where taking away points from the fastest most skilled riders has become so challenging that even solid good riders cannot overcome the obstacles . The old philosophy was take points away with challenging terrain using tight woods , tight turns , hills that slowed but did not overcome average riders . These extreme elements that bring challenging observed trials sections into the enduro world eliminates many beginners and older riders that could start back further and still complete the run . Although spectators like it better and old men like me should know when it's time to retire from competition. The world stands still for no one. Being short and old all bring challenges .
Can you do a session on shorter riders navigating tight switchbacks, both climbing and descending? I can’t seem to pull off a pivot turn on an uphill tight switchback
You have great technique. I cheated and lowered my bike lol. Not the best thing to do, but I had gotten ahead of myself and upgraded my bike too early for my skills. I had so much trouble I really didn't like going out and lower it allowed me to gain a bit more confidence and practice on the fundamentals.
I never realized I was short until I bought my DRZ. Maybe a lighter bike would be easier but damn this girl makes me realize it's just - "do the work".
Balancing and riding standing up is the key. Problem comes when you are dual sporting or adventure riding with gear Ina 200+kg bike. The moment you get tired and sit down, the slightest tilt to one side and gravity makes you drop the bike.
Thanks for todays live Instagram video about TPI bikes it dispelled some of my concerns about them as I consider what to buy. I can't help but wander how long it will be until electric bikes take over.
Your videos motivate me a lot I’m 5 foot and I ride an 85 but I’m 17 and I really wanna move up to a bigger bike but I struggle because of my size but I’m gonna start going to the gym so I can be stronger on the bike and one day move to a full size bike
im pretty short at 5’6 but have really long legs so i don’t really have that problem unless there is like a cliff on the other side where i would fall. over
I'm 5'4".....i stopped riding dirt bikes 20 odd years ago due to the fact that even then the dirt bikes were too tall for me to ride once loaded with camping gear etc for 3 to 7 days (i was doing what's pretty much called adventure riding now long before it was the thing it is today)......anything that had the power to keep up with bigger capacity bikes the taller guys i rode with was too tall, anything that i could handle once loaded was too underpowered for road work when riding with big dualsports.......i had a KLX650 as my last dirtbike and it lay on the panniers when loaded more often than i was happy with.....
Question: your bike runs oil rich ie smokey, I was planning on oil leaning my YZ125X going to 40:1 from 30:1 due to not riding hard when enduro/trail riding. How is your bike setup and is it comparable to the YZ125X? I have oil weeping from power valve drain so too oil rich. Enjoy watching your vids. Thanks
Every time I think I'm a short rider, I watch Megs, and no longer feel short.

You are such an inspiration to everyone trying to learn to ride with skill and grace. Thanks for your big contribution to our riding community!
Hi Meg; that was a great motivational video. I’m old, short and a stroke took out my sense of balance; but still ride at daytime.
Awsome Megs! I'm almost 57 and ride a 250 xcf lowered 2". I'm 5'7" and only have been riding about 4 years. Every time I watch one of your videos it gives me a boost of confidence! Keep up the great work!

@nothinyaseehere9449 why is 5'8 the best. You think taller the better. Leg cramps?
Watching this with my 6 year old to give him tips! You Rock Meg!
Hedre's a tip for yhour kid - stay in school.
You are absolutely the greatest inspiration and example of what is possible for us, short riders! Thank you
Thanks Megs, I appreciate your time and efforts.
Your riding techniques help my riding immensely!!
Brilliant. Iam not young female or short. I do have a chronic condition which had taken much of my bike skills away. Watching you push through your challenges is inspirational. Great skills from a great teacher❤
Kudos to the camera operator keeping up while you ride through some of that nasty terrain
I was thinking same ..... and in mud!!!!
You have a really wonderful cameraman chasing you in different difficult locations:) Thanks for the video!
You're so cool. Thank you for this. I'm 5'5 and I hope to ride big dirtbikes someday.
Much RESPECT❤❤❤
Flipping awesome... you rock. Thanks for the video - very cool.

5:01 just watched this video. I’m also a shorter rider who has struggled with enduro. But you rock! You’ve motivated me to do it. Many thanks.
I learn much from you Megs. Thank you.
The camera man when following meg through the trail 💯👌🏽
You're so right about standing. It should be said more often. Much better control AND you're always in a position to jump out instead of crashing under your bike like my wife does all the time ;-)
Thank you so much for this, just bought a KDX200 and you give me hope for the future.
I am also a 5'2 male...
Brilliant tips... and always so incredible watching you do the harder terrain and obstacles, great motivation for me to try and improve.
Short rider here. Awesome skills! Hope to take a class from you some day in AZ 🙏
That is so inspiring. 5'-5" Here and I have always felt I have a disadvantage. Even with arm length and weight distribution. But I will keep trying to follow your example.
I sent this vid to my daughter, keep up the hard work !!
Hey! Could you maybe talk about proper lowering one day? Would be awesome to hear about compromises and stuff. Thank you!
One thing Megs does have to her advantage here is flexibility, particularly in the hips. Man, do I need to work on that!!
I'm 5'5" & play around with twin shock trials bikes, trials riding is great for balance, confidence & reading the terrain, the more trials obstacles i ride the more confident i become in the bush :)

I wish I could ride with you some day. Love your videos. Wish I could find the gnarly stuff you ride closer to home
Absolute Legend and love the videos, definately feels safer to sit in some technical stuff but it's an illusion your brain creates as you have way less control to counteract any problems. Keep up the good work
Thanks for all the hard work! Keep it up!

Honestly I don't see you at a disadvantage, your really good on dirt bikes. You rock,keep it up.
Nice vid..just got into dirt biking you inspire me on your log hopping and balance skills…👍
Look into getting a clake left hand rear brake. An awesome small female rider told me about it.
It's fantastic and I'm 6'4" and I stay on the pegs way more with it and it is a real game changer for having fun going down hill!
You are 5' tall in height, and 10' tall in Bass A$$'ness !!!!!
Thank you for inspiration!
I'm 6'4" and I basically do the same movements she showed in the video, most of the time the Terrain is off camber. In the trail, everyone is short :D
I'm happy I saw this my grandfather sent it to me because we ride together and I tend to fall over all the time on this type of stuff hahahah
Awesome video! First one I’ve watched, now subscribed!
Right on! Thank you for the follow! ☺️
Megs, how about a “short riders training tour” - at least to Colorado! 5’5” guy here, and 125lbs soaking wet. We little trail riders could always use a little help! Thank you so much for your videos! Super helpful and encouraging!

Great tips, thanks Megs :-)

You are just amazing !!!
Balancing and riding standing up is the key. Problem comes when you are dual sporting or adventure riding with gear Ina 200+kg bike. The moment you get tired and sit down, the slightest tilt to one side and gravity makes you drop the bike.
It's good to see the techniques "exaggerated" by a short and light person. Underlines what is important and what is not.
Thanks for the vid, the mental block of short legs is my problem
Hello friend! I admire coz even you are a girl and has a height like me. You're a good endoro motor user.
Great video. Very motivating.
Your a legend hello from down under 👍
I like it. No excuses. Great mantra to live by and keep pushing oneself for solutions, not getting defeated by the problem. Kudos!
Great skills bravo 👍👍 .
Your such a badass. Can’t wait to someday take one of your clinics
you are correct thank you
Thanks for todays live Instagram video about TPI bikes it dispelled some of my concerns about them as I consider what to buy. I can't help but wander how long it will be until electric bikes take over.

I like how you mentioned that even though I might not be "big and tall" (4'10), doesn't mean I can't be a great rider. ❤❤❤
Well...thats a woman with a heart of a lion..it takes a lot of balls to do what shes doing...hmm really admire this girl...tough!!!!!
im pretty short at 5’6 but have really long legs so i don’t really have that problem unless there is like a cliff on the other side where i would fall. over
Inspirational thanks
Love it !!! !!!!!! !!!!!!!!!
I'm not short, but I like the vibe Meg.
Thank you!
😮 So stay on the bike ( pegs ) 😮 😅 Love it ❤
Amazing....
I'm 5'4".....i stopped riding dirt bikes 20 odd years ago due to the fact that even then the dirt bikes were too tall for me to ride once loaded with camping gear etc for 3 to 7 days (i was doing what's pretty much called adventure riding now long before it was the thing it is today)......anything that had the power to keep up with bigger capacity bikes the taller guys i rode with was too tall, anything that i could handle once loaded was too underpowered for road work when riding with big dualsports.......i had a KLX650 as my last dirtbike and it lay on the panniers when loaded more often than i was happy with.....
Wow
Megs: you are realy amazing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I Appreciate You
Megs, do you typically get your bikes suspension lowered or run a low seat?
do you recommend thinning the seat? or lowering link?
Question: your bike runs oil rich ie smokey, I was planning on oil leaning my YZ125X going to 40:1 from 30:1 due to not riding hard when enduro/trail riding. How is your bike setup and is it comparable to the YZ125X? I have oil weeping from power valve drain so too oil rich. Enjoy watching your vids. Thanks

my legs are 29.13 inches long but I still want to ride enduro and motocross so bad
Great video, have you ever rode the beta xtrainer, if so what are your thoughts on it?
What if your shifter foot is on the downhill side. Do you use your rear brake foot on the uphill side?
Do you do anything to lighten the clutch pull or ride with the stock setup?
Have you lowered your suspension any. And do you recommend it
😎👍
That is some ruff train.
I'm like 5'2" or 5'3" and I just got a 2017 KX250F and I know you had the same bike. Do you have any tips for me and that bike?
Very Cool 😎 😊 good job😊
Could you do a video about your thoughts on the crf250f, since its made for shorter riders? Thank you
wow wow wow..
