Boy, don't I know THAT one!!!
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!!

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!
