...for me. The past two years I've been trying out a bit of downhill riding. One type of feature I'm very nervous of (OK, scared) is a drop-off. To fix this, I set myself a challenge to learn how to ride drops on a DH course and on natural trails.
For natural trails, I'm fortunate that I have a small hill nearby with lots of rock-bars, so off I went yesterday to ride them. These in the pic are pretty typical, front one is around 10 inches, the rear around 2 1/2 feet
This part of the slope is pretty mild too, an excellent place to start. So I did! It was great fun (and a bit scary), but I jumped a few and got up the courage to ride a big one... ...more tomorrow!

I once did a four foot vertical drop off on My Proflex 656. Scary stuff.
