[QUOTE="E-Ticket, post: 680772, member: 20985"] Two very important things to remember! 1) This happens to ALL of us..... Whether you are a beginner or an expert. An expert just has it happen to them on scarier, steeper hills! But they're down and stuck just as bad as you were. :confused: 2) You went and tried again! This is hugely good and way-cool ... and you are to be congratulated! :yeehaw: All of us have one hill, one turn, one jump ... that just has our name on it. And you just have to keep trying and eventually you will get it. Then as your skills/experience improve -- you'' do your nemesis again -- and it will be easy-peesy! Kinda' weird how that works - but it is definately all relative. A couple of tips. The next time you want to try "RockyRoad's Hill of Death" do this. You know the spot that you usually crash or stop at? Don't look at it! As you start of the hill, make sure you look at a spot *past* it. In other words, look at where you "want to go" -- not where you "crash at." Looking at the bad spot will concentrate all your negative thinkings into that single spot! And, like a black hole, it will draw you right to it! <grin> But seriously, focus on looking beyond .... at the next section. With enough speed/momentum -- you'll go right by it! Another tip is to watch someone else do it successfully. Seeing someone else go calmly by the "spot from Hell" will help convince you that it is possible. And when you do go by it/do the climb successfully? You calmly stop your bike at the top, get off, walk over to the edge, look down at the offending spot, and <....wait for it...> Jump up and down, screaming at the top of lungs at the offending spot, "I *OWN* YOU ... YOU SON OF A B***..!!!!!!!" It's great fun and you will feel wonderful. :thumb: Cheers! - E-Ticket [/QUOTE]
