Awsome. Racing is such an adrenaline rush. You go faster and do things you never thought you could do. My first mountain bike race was 8 years ago as a beginner. I was so stupid about shifting etc. I didn't place, but I had the time of my life and was hooked on racing ever since. We all have to start somewhere. I even went down most hills with no brakes because I didn't wan't to lock up and and slide or worse do and endo. So I did some very fast decents. I have come along way in the last 8 years. Keep up the good work. I think you were more prepared for your first race than I was. I had pressure from my spouse and teenage son to race that first race. I will never regret doing that race. It was a life changing experience
Its not the bike, it's the rider that makes the difference.
