I totally agree!

I did go to Mammoth Lakes Ski area a few months ago mountain biking and it was fun. Some of the trails were too much for me and my hardtail but I did learn quite a bit.

I think the protection would help me a lot. I've also learned about the back brake skidding thing. I've decided that I should take more time to go out on the trails and just practice. Usually I'm set on getting to one place and back. If I took the time to play around and see what my bike does in differente circumstances, it would really help me.

Thanks again!
