Boy, don't I know THAT one!!! :rolleyes:
Put my DH on ANYthing - mtb, waterskis, snow skis, windsurfer, whatever, and in 2 minutes, he'll look like he's been doing it all his life! Boy, does that grate me!! :mad: :p

I hope your own DH is not bringing you on "advanced" trails this weekend. Yes, you won't get better if you don't challenge yourself, but I think you need to be at a good comfort level before you can move on. Take things at your pace. Relax and have fun!

Hi all

I caught the bug to go Dirt last spring, I have a cyclocross bike and have learned alot with that. Just ordered a mountain bike (nothing stupendous), and am reading up on skills. I really like Ned's book, he seems down to earth and old -school about things. I like how he reccommends drills, and specific practice things.

Am waiting for the mtb to show up. And, BTW, I've got my radar on a HOT :D
MTB boy. One thing I've noticed is that the Dirt crowd is WAY MORE friendly than the roadie snobs.
