I am still working on this - I love downhills now as long as my speed <= 30 mph. I still have problems stopping at the bottom of a steep hill, say, at a stop sign If I know there is one then I try to take some other route to avoid it.

We mainly just have quite steep but short hills around here, I need more practice on long hills.

It does get easier, and more fun, with practice. This is my first season riding. Ever
