[QUOTE="Travace, post: 7689, member: 111"] i cant say from experience because i dont have a lot in either... owned my first bike for 2 months now... But i feel like both complement each other in different ways. The trails complement the track in the sense of knowing that you have to look where you are going and in being able to pick a line. The track is giving me some skills in cornering..getting the wheels off the ground and in knowing where i should be positioning my body on the bike. One advantage that goes for the track is the fact that there is USUALLY better people around that i can get advice from... almost ever person i have talked to at the track has great advice considering they are watching me from the sideline sometimes. So the knowledge one can gain at the track is HUGE compared to the trail when you go out by yourself. Remember tho this comes from someone who is just learning the ins and outs of riding a dirt bike at the track and on the trail. Also i only know PBK in real life and id say we are pretty close to skill levels so i dont have a huge sack of knowledgeable people that i have rode trails with. Trails people tend to stick to their own groups and you dont really meet new people out on a trail to get advice from. [/QUOTE]
