      Practice makes perfect, you will find that it is more the rider than anything. I set up some really tight courses yesterday in Albany and at first thought they were impossible but got them after awhile.

      When i come down to this gymkhana course i will be ready!!

      I think confidence is an essential part of biking, commiting to that corner or leaning further than you would have leaned before. swinging your bike around at slow speeds and making decisions in the blink of an eye. Confidence is essential so i try to use it as much as possible. come and join in!!
