At High Speed With Vivid Emotions
More and more Ukrainian instead of boring relaxing on the beach prefer extreme in all its manifestations. Let’s consider my family and friends, for instance, – each of them has his own views of the rest, but nobody dreams of lying on the sand all day long and going out to resort discos in the evenings. Neither do I.
The main thing is that you can get a dose of adrenaline on vacation in Ukraine, and you can do it inexpensive.
Nowadays, motocross is not only expensive and serious sport exclusively for professionals. It is available for mere mortals, too. By the way, according to my friend Oleksii, who is a stubborn rider, “Motorcycles are a disease, not a means of transportation. It is a state of mind, which can’t bring disappointment.”
Motorcycle driving is able to give not only sports charge, endurance, and willpower, but absolute joy of feeling the speed and freedom. For me, it was a surprise to find out that many Ukrainians prefer this type of entertainment. They drive a motorcycle but not fly in the dark, holding to the partner’s back.
To master this kind of sport, according to Oleksii, it’s better to start with Motor School but not private lessons of fellow motorcyclists.
“You can be a great rider, but a lousy teacher. It often happens so. But after a course Motor School it’s not a mistake to improve your skills with experienced bikers”, he said. Oleksii has been riding a motorcycle since he was 13.
Having learned the basics of theory and practice with cherished driver’s license, you must determine the type of bike that is the closest in spirit for you. Whether it is a sports bike or a chopper, a terrain or a road one, a tourist or a motard.
“They are quite different, but they have one thing in common: those vehicles are designed to be fun”, Oleksii says.
Whatever type of bike you choose, the only thing not worth saving at is the equipment. Proper equipment is the key to a long life, and any bike rider will prove it.
As for the rent, according to Oleksii, it is better to buy a motorcycle, maybe of a lower class and cheaper, but it’s better to have your own.
“Miss once and you will have to buy it. But your vehicle is a different thing – here’s the tuning and here’s the merge with it”, he said.
Professionals often like the dark, but beginners should ride in the daytime. And then you can ride when you are confident about it – you can try and night if you want.
The price of cross motorcycles rental in Ukraine amounts to 200 UAH per hour on average.
