If riding in soft sand makes you scared that you will fall, remember that you're probably right but WHEN you fall, it will be into soft sand that is soft and sandy.

Awesome video . New to offroading , picked up a DRZ400S about 2 months ago and my first time riding in deep sand i just remembered the tips from this video and despite being nervous managed to not fall/drop the bike a single time . Thank you!
The counter-intuitive approach to riding in sand (& mud) is what makes it hard. When the bike starts getting skittish or wallowing around your brain tells you to save yourself & slow down. Of course, the exact opposite action is needed. I have struggled thru sand so many times verbally telling myself to speed up, but fell anyway when I hit the brakes.
It's a tough mental hurdle to get over... the consolation is the landing is usually soft. As long as you jump clear and don't try to stay with the bike and get a leg twisted. Ugh.
A paddle tire with big bore 2stroke hp really makes for a great time in sand. It's possible to hydro plane very deep sections of water also. Been awhile.. .
Great movie - very helpful. When you drive in Europe for a few days, for example on the Trans Euro Trail, you have a whole mix of surfaces - dry sand, wet sand, gravel, clay, mud, asphalt - every day. Most often we ride 700, 1000, 1200 cc bikes, so they are heavy. It is not easy to choose tires that will be good in all terrain.
As usual - all fantastic points. I’ve also felt that acting like you are skiing - weighting the outside peg and turning with your heels can change the entire experience.
Barry, since I began watching you on "Find some balance in your life" with trials bikes, I've appreciated your teaching style and sense of humor. Keep posting these informative videos, please. Good on ya, mate!
One thing people dont seem to talk about is dynamic or 'real' trail. It refers to where the contact patch of the tyre is. In sand, the contact patch especially on the front, can be pushed forward, which effectively changes the geometry of the front end, reducing and sometimes even negating the self-righting castor effect, which is why the front feels vague at slow speeds
Where I live, deep sand is the only stuff besides greasy muck.. People hate & refuse it, I enjoy it as the challenge.. I tell people- the faster you go, the more it feels like concrete, but that's also true when you eat caca!.. your cornering tips are helpful to me, I normally try to drift the 90s, with mixed success!🤙Hello to auntie!
Had a trial by fire when i went to an organised offroad ride for the first time. 45KM's of nothing but sand and ruts of 300+ people who've gone before me. Once i started gripping the bike with my legs, lean back over the fender, relax grip on handlebars and stay on throttle, it's alright. But it's the most difficult thing ever to convince yourself to go faster when going slow is already likely to hurt you. Even if you fall, you have to get back up and go fast again instead of take it easy. Must say the really soft sand is much easier than the slightly denser dirt that builds perfect ruts for your front wheel to catch.
This video is spot on gents, kudos. I remember my first time in the sand was out in the Imperial Dunes with my little KX125 and the more technical stuff out by hill 6 and china wall really worked the hell out of that engine. I will openly admit it, I wiped out quite a few times learning to ride in those dunes and absolutely loved it. I stepped up into a CR500 a few years later and holy shit, huge difference but all the principles, techniques and everything you talked about in your video still applies.
i really appreciate your subtle and positive sentiment at the end of the video. wonderful to see the positivity in a world full of hateful judgement. thanks for sharing the love of your family with the world. p.s. i just bought a kdx220 and i cant wait to rebuild it! its my first REAL dirt bike. currently sporting a dr250s
I have about 2 miles of experience in deep sand riding. The main excuse for my poor performance is that there were a lot of bumps and it was impossible to develop speed. Hopefully by the end of the summer I will learn to do it right. and about your aunty ...-pics or it didn't happen😁
Depends what geometry it's got. Two slow steering bikes I owned were 100% awesome. A DR500 Suzuki, and a Can Am MX6. On a twitchier bike it's a bit harder.
At least when riding in soft graven you can apply slight rear brake to help the rear to dig in a little while keeping the front light. I really felt it felt to keep a more stable course. Got the tip on a beginner gravel course.
Good tips, one that caught my attention was; sitting back in corners (sand) as opposed to leg out (inside turn) and weight forward (mx), though I lean back, I always felt like maybe I shouldn't be, glad to know its not wrong lol.
Hi Barry I’m planning to do the Simpson desert on a dr200r soon. Light bike and relatively reliable. I’m planning on running a 140/80 18”. Big tyre for a little bike. Have you heard of any other riders trying a profile similar for ultra fine , bull dust type sand. Cheers
I've always run the widest hard terrain knobbies I could fit front and back. Some will argue, I don't care. My TTR230 ( regoed one) has a Mitas Terra Force 110/100 which I bought online .It actually measures 125mm across the knobs. Check how much clearance you have.
That's great if you get to ride together. My brother and I have tried for years to drag our old man out but only succeeded twice... even though he's had road bikes for decades.
Agree with everything you said mate 👍, iv ridden the BIG and Little deserts in VIC ( ABD ITS SO THICK ) takes awhile to get the hang of a home different riding style , we also have a area near wodonga we’re I live “ the chiltern state forest 🌳 it’s sandy and small sand size gravel ( fantastic in the wet ) loss as in the dry , I enjoy some HATE IT .
Ha ha. This video would have saved me a full day of trial-and-error when I rode from Perth to Darwin through the bush in 2005. I hadn't ridden offroad before, and didn't know what I was doing at first, but luckily my BMW R100GS-PD knew exactly what it was doing.
All this +, add many, many X's , a bunch more, and then some, hours of riding sand/slush/mud/silt.. its rewarding though when you get through a length of it.
I used to hate sand - and everytime i hit sand id be wonky as trying not to crash. Visit your local sandpit and keep in mind "if in doubt - power out" works great on sand (if you get wonky - nail the throttle and things seem to settle themselves down.....if you "back off" when wonky the front tyre can dig in and throw you off in loose sand) DONT look at whats directly infront of the tyre else you will tense up on rutts etc - have trust that the bike will "plough through" everything. I went from absolutely hating sand - to the point i would turn around on a track that got too sandy and go home. These days i look for sand - its so much fun once it all "clicks" together for you
You'll get different opinions on this, Dave. As per the vid, it's usually a good idea to relax and let the bike do its own thing to a certain extent in soft sand... I've always felt not gripping too much with the legs is part of this. But then this can take pressure of your upper body which is a good thing for reducing fatigue.
@@daleslagell617 My fear also, I'm 69 and scrawny, usually on a heavily loaded KLR 650. I hate sand but can get through short sections with this advice. Also I ride alone out in the desert or mountains.
Last time I rode in soft sand, instead of holding the handlebars loosely, or trying to keep them straight, I deliberately made small adjustments left and right. I need to experiment more but this seemed to give better control, possibly because it constantly weighed up one of the edges of the front tyre and made it less susceptible to being pushed around by the sand. Anyone else tried this?

My locals stockton beach. I find virgin deep sand is easier to ride on than trying to stay in deep soft car rutts. Dont stop facing uphill. Practice jumping in and out of car rutts as cars always expect you to get out their way (rutt jumpings actually fun once you get confident). Always check your airbox once you get home (my TTR250 always has lots of sand in the airbox after a stockton run - i lightly grease my whole airbox before doing sand) I drop straight to 10PSI for stockton with rimlocks. If your mirrors dont bend in automatically when hit - take them off before sand or adjust them so they face inwards else you will lose mirrors dropping the bike (can see how my mirrors bent in here ruclips.net/video/LD9gRNc8_wM/видео.html )
I appreciate the sentiment, but i had to work through SO many scenarios... was it an uncle that is now an aunty? When was he a father? was he BOTH a father AND an uncle? is he still a father now that he's an aunty? was it the other way around? it doesn't say! In the end i figured, it's not any of my business.

@@syedenhammydude6196 I have a grandson who is transitioning to female right now. It is very confusing from the outside, especially coming out of the blue like it has. I guess I'll get used to it over time.
That would be very tough for the family... but I guess more so for the grandson. I do know that transitioning doesn't always lead to happiness. Sometimes it does, of course. But other times there can be all these other underlying issues going on as well. I hope it goes well in this case!

Gravel mixed in the sand: "Bonjour"
I ride lots in sand and high speed impact still hurts :D
Soft sand with sharp rocks pointing out like you can find in deserts... Equals "Bonjour" indeed. As per the comment above haha.

A paddle tire with big bore 2stroke hp really makes for a great time in sand.
It's possible to hydro plane very deep sections of water also. Been awhile.. .
I love the comparison to a boat planing in water. Makes perfect sense!!
Extreme bikes with paddles do the same even on water. Enough speed and you can ride on it.

@@crosstrainingadventureMitas e07 (Czech), Motoz (Australia) Tractionator Adventure, or similar
@@crosstrainingadventure There are a lot of asphalt roads in Europe and it is difficult to use typical off-road tires on heavy motorcycles.
well done! these techniques also apply to riding in deep loose gravel.
As usual - all fantastic points. I’ve also felt that acting like you are skiing - weighting the outside peg and turning with your heels can change the entire experience.

Good point. Never even thought about that.
Steering stabilizers can really shine in these situations, especially if you're able to crank up the slow speed damping.
Who needs steering stabilizers when you can just clamp too many farkles on the handlebars

It is hard to fight your instincts to slow down... congrats!
Slower setting on the forks are a must for me, adding 5mm sag, tires. Deep and ruff sand tracks are my favorite!

The good thing with soft sand is the landing usually isn't too bad with a crash... unless the bike lands on you lol.
The first thing to do is toss those factory DR tires ! Great video.
Never done sand, but I’ll take on board what you’ve said, and hopefully not break something in the process.

Unfortunately I have no idea, Joe. I do know a 'fatty' front tyre can be good (see our enduro channel) but no advice for the rear.

The most important advice that was overlooked in this video: Never ever feather the clutch in the sand, you'll fry it in a couple of minutes.

Great thx for sharing, i actually HATE sand now i am looking forward to try 😎

I thought the fatty front will just make the bike follow every rut? All the deeper sand trails near me have lots of 4x4 tracks through them
Some guys say they aren't good in ruts but everyone runs with these in our group and never noticed it. But then we are into hard enduro tracks too...
Hi. I understand the loose grip on the handle bar. What about gripping the bike with your legs ? Is that ok or not ?

I enjoy sand riding. I'm not particularly good at it, but enjoy it.
It's impressive when you see pro riders tackling soft sand...either desert racing or motocross. Incredible speed.
@@crosstrainingadventure Especially impressive in the Dakar since the engine cc size was lowered...
The ending text caught me be supprise 🤣
😁
Fast!!! Full-throttle!!! With half tread, or less.
Easy off on gas before the corner then add gas thru the corner to keep front end from knifing.
🇦🇺😎👍Your on the money, ride it like you just stole it 🧨😂
definitely more difficult and scarier, on a bigger heavier bike. if possible i would practice on a smaller bike until i get comfortable.
How do you keep the front from tucking in?
As per the vid.Weight right to the back. Stay loose and don't try to overcontrol the steering. Low air pressures.
In sand speed is your friend. But she's a fickle friend.
I'm 61 years old. I've ridden in sand all my life. I still struggle with the very real possibity of falling at speed, more so now that I'm older!
@@daleslagell617 My fear also, I'm 69 and scrawny, usually on a heavily loaded KLR 650. I hate sand but can get through short sections with this advice. Also I ride alone out in the desert or mountains.
And wash your bike super thoroughly afterwards - that sand and salt gets into everything. 👍🏻
Great point
Last time I rode in soft sand, instead of holding the handlebars loosely, or trying to keep them straight, I deliberately made small adjustments left and right.
