LOL, yes, I need to find some curbs, I guess. There are none around my house, I live in a place where the "curbs" are all just slopped...totally useless as obstacles!! I went out yesterday and got through about 4 spots that I'd walked around the day before, so I guess that's good .... those large rock gardens freak me out though! It's the closest place to ride for me, so I guess I'd better get used to it Thanks for all the encouragement, everyone
