[QUOTE="Ol'89r, post: 829862, member: 17212"] Hey MEW. Glad to see ya back. :cool: I agree with Ivan. Get out an just do some trail riding. Learn basic riding skills and get as much time on the bike as possible. Riding tracks all the time doesn't teach you to react to the unknown. When riding trail, there is something new around every corner. Different traction, different conditions, teaches you to be a better all-around rider. If you trail ride with the right people it can be just about as competitive as racing. The jumping and racing thing is all about confidence. It takes a long time to gain the confidence it takes to jump and go fast on a race track. It only takes one good get-off to lose that confidence. What is happening to you is nothing out of the ordinary. Take your time and get back into it slowly. It takes years to become comfortable on a dirt bike. Nothing against you but, since you've only been riding for 7 months, you don't really have the natural ability to react to things when they go wrong. The more seat time you get, the more this will become a natural reaction for you. Don't give up. Winners never quit and quitters never win. And yes, it is all in your head. ;) Just my $ .02 [/QUOTE]
