Best piece of advice as far as lessening frustration. I am still struggling to not look at the big ol' rock (root, tree) and have to bailout when I could keep going if I will just look past it.
Oh and find a way to trust following your bike, sometimes it doesn't seem like that would work but when I just sit back and roll on magical things have happened- like I survived.
