So, tell me why when I am jumping or riding some technical stuff I don’t fall, but on a perfectly straight and flat area of the trail I wipe out. It happened about two weeks ago. I was riding Rodalben Germany with some friends. We came around a corner and there was a group of riders taking a break. As we passed them they started riding behind us. So to stay a head of them we hammered down, and got up to about 30mph, according to my computer. Then, out of nowhere I am on my side sliding at 30mph. I was so embarassed that I didn’t even stop sliding before I was back on the bike riding again. I don’t even know what caused me to fall, there were no rocks, roots, or soft sand.
