Winter Riding Is Fun...If You Are Prepared

Cold Weather Moto Gear - Part 3: Base and Mid Layers

In part three of our cold weather dirt bike riding apparel series we focus on base and mid layers. If you happen to already participate in winter sports (such as snowboarding or snowmobiling) this section may be a review; but if you don’t—and you’ve decided there’s no way you’ll make it through this winter without riding your dirt bike—then read on. Our intent is to pass along recommendations for choosing the right base and mid layers that will help make your cold weather ride that much more comfortable.

Fly Keeps You Warm For Winter Riding!

How to Stay Warm and Keep Riding This Winter.

Part two of our multi-part cold weather dirt bike riding apparel series focuses on glove and sock choices. Keeping your hands and feet warm is a common problem when cold weather riding; and like setting up your helmet with the proper cold weather accessories, the gloves and socks you choose can mean the difference between a day of fun or a day to forget. The right gloves and socks are a simple way to combat cold temperatures and increase your level of comfort.

Let It Snow...Let It Snow...Let It Snow

With winter riding in mind, the following is part one in a multi-part series focused on cold weather riding gear. In each part we will rundown cold weather riding products that FLY Racing recommends; such as gloves choices, base and mid-layers, jersey and jacket choices and so on. The idea is to show you that, just because winter is here, it doesn’t mean riding your dirt bike has to come to a halt.

First up, in part 1 of the series: Helmets and helmet accessories for cold weather riding.

Christmas Ideas From Matrix Racing

 Here are some products from Matrix Concepts that it would be great to find under the tree this year.

Fly Strider Balance Bike

Strider™ balance bikes are industry-leading training bikes that help children as young as 18 months learn to ride on two wheels. Strider balance bikes focus on the fundamentals of balancing, leaning, and steering without the distractions and complications of pedals or training wheels.

The Strider's simple, no-pedal design builds confidence and eliminates fear by allowing kids to have their feet on the ground and progress at their own pace. This unique design teaches young children balance on two wheels right from the start, avoiding developmental delays typical with tricycles and training-wheel bikes.

Genuine Strider balance bikes are the lightest balance bikes in their category, have the lowest seat height (for the youngest starting age), and are tested to the most stringent safety standards. Frame-integrated footrests, proprietary components, and the ability to easily adjust to a growing child, make the Strider the only bike your child needs to develop their riding skills and successfully transfer onto their first pedal bike without training wheels.

• Standard 22.2mm steel handlebar and soft urethane grips with protective ends, machined aluminum binder clamp allows height adjustment from 18"-22"
• Strider exclusive, ultra light one-piece wheels sport a raised-letter, five-spoke design with 10 bearing support gussets for maximum strength at the lightest weight possible, top-quality sealed cartridge bearings roll smooth and never need adjustment
• EVA polymer (industrial foam) tires are super light and durable yet offer a smooth ride, they never need air and will never go flat
• Durable, all-weather mini-saddle is designed specifically for beginning riders (bike includes both standard and tall seat/stem assemblies)
• Machined aluminum binder clamp allows saddle height adjustment from 11" to approx. 20" for the perfect fit
• Unique, frame-integrated footrests are properly positioned directly below the saddle for natural bike balance
