Isn't it funny how hard the landings can be when you almost clear those jumps? There is a step up at my local track and no matter how fast I hit it, I never quite cleared it. My friends would say hit it in 3rd so I did and would case. I hit it in 4th and same thing. Finally a girl said just follow me and I guaranty you'll make it, I followed and sure enough she cleared but I didn't. Then I got my new bike, the one with suspension that was set up for my weight and not someone 50lbs heavier than me. I head to the track and figure "why not give it another shot?" I hit it in 4th and flew right over and landed on the down side, the smoothest landing I've ever had. Heck, I can clear it in 2nd now.

The hard part for me is to know just how hard & fast I have to hit a jump for the 1st time to clear it without over jumping. I can't wait until I learn how to do that.

Congratulations on your achievement Susan, I think E-Ticket is jealous.;)
