Good vid Old Git Ray!

And fair comments to all! I think people are right when they mention inhibitions due to fear of dropping!

I took a demmo out today and found this road......


It had a fairly steep climb up to get up to the lane and it was very rocky and sandy. Going up wasn't bad but coming back down I was bricking it! I think mainly because I was sat there saying to myself 'don't drop the loan bike....don't drop the loan bike'

In reality even though it was slippery and rocky, it was no where near as slippery and steep as the decent we did at the lakes 09 on the coach road GULG took us on......any of you guys know where I mean?
I wasn't worried about dropping the bike and just went for it! Even the guys with the X's managed it (a few needed a change of trousers after)
