Who Am I, And Why Should You Trust Me To Teach you?
I'm Kaeli Khaos. Or Khaos For Short.
I'm riding a brand new 2021 Beta 125 RR Race Edition,
And am in mclean several times a week, Both weekdays
and weekends.
I have been on 2 wheels since I could walk!
I used to BMX every day for many many years when I
was younger. And even started riding
2 stroke dirt bikes around the age of 12.
Between riding anything that rolls, And working on
small 2 stroke engines, my focus was clear.
BRAAAAAP!
I have been an enthusiast, riding seriously for the last 5 years, Several times a week, mostly at mclean creek Both in groups and alone, Mapping trails, Advancing my own skills, And learning to tackle anything in my way. I create videos on my youtube channel Khaos Bikes Garage, And as you will see, i'm nothing short of crazy.
I Rode my old 99 rm250 for several years, with no stickers, No flashy parts, No upgrades, and carrying a big tool bag. And many folks on brand new TPI 2 strokes even had trouble just making it where I went. Nevermind keeping up.
It's all about riding what you have to its full potential (And yours)
Ive had comments such as:
“Holy Shit… Do You Always Ride That Fast?”
“My God! I just can't keep up!”
“How Do You Do It?”
Now here is your chance to learn how it's done!
