Answer 5

Hello turning 16, it is not too late for anyone to start on anything. But the sooner you start, the better. Like any other sports, you have to set your mind and body to it. Motocross is a  demanding sports. It is the second most strenuous sports in the world. So getting into it requires preparations. Smoking, drinking and staying up late are some of the no nos. Well actually, for most of the sport. The important thing to begin with is get the proper safety equipment. Like a good helmet, goggles, shoulder pads, jersey, kidney belts, riding pants, knee braces (a very good investment), gloves, socks and riding boots. These are the things you will need to protect yourself. Preparation before and after riding, and what bike to get is...another story.

Answer 6

your turning WHAT 16, youve got 70 years of riding left in you, if you dont start now it will be 69 years left of riding, better start now you will need that extra year when your 86 years old. ITS BETTER TO WEAR OUT THAN RUST OUT

Answer 7

Most riders do start early, but it is never too late just get the bike and join a club and then give it a go.  You will soon figure out just how much you like the sport and will see if you have any potential at it.  It's fun at whatever level you ride at!

Answer 8

you are the perfect age. practice practice practice. that's all it takes. if you are planing on going pro it might be slightly late but if you ride enough and have the money to maintain your bike you can do it.

Answer 9

Definitely not, I know people that didn't start racing until they were 30.
