I’ve been riding trails for maybe a year now and I can definitely be over-cautious when it comes to a some obstacles because I’m a big guy (6′ 290ish) and it hurts when I fall. Someone already mentioned riding with buddies who are better than you so that they can give you tips and pointers. I’m still a total noob and until I get in better shape, I’m going to suck for a while but that has been my biggest help so far. It’s helped in tackling new obstacles and in pushing myself longer on the trails which has really helped in my weight loss.
I can attest to that fact….in fact I blame you Mr. Orlando for getting me started into this addiction!! hahaha Just come ride with me out at Quantico one day, and I’ll keep ya going!
