I'm determined to improve my cycling skill. Plan: Hill repeats, descending practice, longer endurance rides, better diet. The key to getting better on hills is to ride more hills, I know this. I love hills; as of today, long hills are my best friends. The key to better endurance is to ride longer, and the key to speed is intervals. All of that is self explanatory.
Technical descending, on the other hand, particularly on dirt, is nerve racking for me. I feel much better climbing out of camp on the two mile downhill pipeline that actually going downhill on it. I know to relax, keep my arms and legs bent or flexed, my arse off the seat, and my brain focused so I can control the bike. Anyone else have any tips? Is there a secret potion I can find and drink to make me a better downhiller?
