elbows...????

[CTM]

I was at the track and there was an older gentlemen giving me some tips and he gave me the ol' elbows up tip. Everytime i hear that or read it i think &%$#@! elbows up? What exactly is that i cant see elbows up or down only to the side....

CAN SOMEONE SHOW ME A PIC OF ELBOWS UP OR SOMETHING?

its easier to think of attack position like sayed above. Its good to be big and open like that and bad to have your elbows down at your side.

along with having your elbows up you also want to be forward on the bike and have you head forward and over the bars. thats another key to the attack position.

here are two pics to go with the other one. one of me and one of my friend training together.

here is one of my friend austin you can see that even tho his body is a lil further back his head is still forward as well as elbows up.
