Thanks again!
I'm no expert, but I think the fear while descending is there on purpose to get you to slow down. When you have more experience descending, you'll naturally get a feel for when you can let up on the brakes. If you're familiar with the route, you'll know where you can speed up a little.

You might want to post something in the tips-n-tricks section on this, just to get people's attention.
