The first time I rode a dirt bike was in Peru on a 1000 mile trip, and during the trip I lowsided the bike and dislocated my arm. I rode for a day in a Hilux which was driven flat out by Armando, and that was terrifying. Hairpin blind corners in the mountains with no guardrails, tires howling at every turn. The chase trucks had to be driven flat out to keep up with the group of motorcycles. Still, 5 out of the group of 10 of us wrecked motorcycles in one way or another, and neither of the trucks had an accident (that I was aware of).
