Hang in there, enjoy baby steps, it's funner (that's not really a word) each time.

Just thought I'd update ... I did a second clinic, though it was not "skills" per se. But for the ride we did the same intermediate trail I did 4 weeks ago that I got beat up on pretty bad ... this time I still got beat up, but not AS bad AND I did obstacles that I walked over the first time I rode there. I'm heading back to my beginner/family friendly trail to again regain my confidence and I'll seek out that intermediate trail for a third time come mid August. Stay tuned ....
