I've realized something in my last week of living. If I'm not riding dirtbikes everyday, I have a lot of time on my hands! Its kinda funny, but definetly a blessing to have as a reality! I've decided to take some time off and just chill for a bit because I was feeling, well honestly quite burnt out.
Don't get me wrong, motocross is my most absolute favorite thing to do! But believe it or not, its possible for something you love so much to ware on you. Its not just the riding, I love the riding, but everything that comes with it, travel, money, competitions, pressure, apperances, injuries, worries. It all gets to you after years and years on the grind with basically no off season. But this year I took it upon myself to take off as much time as I needed.
In a way it feels extremely weird forcing myslef not to ride! But I know its a smart, professional decision and its what my body needs. I've got a few lingering "little injuries", dislocated thumb, broken finger, and a sore knee that just need a little time to catch up. That's it for me, boring I know. But it'll be better for me to start 08 with a healthy body and a rejuvinated mind!
Till next time, peace.
