Help Descending
I always have trouble descending at a fair speed. I tend to brake far too much and often will go slower on a steep downhill than on a flat just because I am concerned about stopping distance. I have had one crash in the past related to my rear weal getting caught on a log around a sharp turn. I just had a bad road rash but ive since been extra careful. i also always worry about an injury that compromises my career ( surgical medical specialty). I feel like I will never go really fast and thats probably the right thing to keep safe but I do want to have the minimal speed for enjoyment. Any tips? Also what do you do with bad roads? Thats something I always worry about is losing control on patches of bumpy road or bad pavement or potholes. (I tend to slow down tremendously for those sections)
