What's your goal this summer?

[bounceswoosh]

For riding I want to increase the speed at which I ride over technical stuff. I want to speed up before big scary drops and big logs; instead of slowing down (which actually makes it harder even though it makes me feel better - ha!).

Amen!

I had an icky fall right after my car accident last year (silly me; I really wasn't in any condition to be riding) where I slowed down so much before a little rock lip and then drop that the lip stopped my front wheel and my bike flipped over on top of me. If I'd just been rolling at a reasonable speed, it would've been nothing (and I've ridden that spot so many times .. and if you saw it you'd probably laugh at how such a tiny bump could cause so much trauma).
