Aside from the manuals practice, I’ve been working on fakies (riding in reverse on a bike) and it’s also a tough balancing challenge. Learning bike skills like these are so rewarding because it takes dozens of hours of failure before things even begin to click. So most people end up giving up before learning them.
What I hated about the car racing scene was people always used money to make themselves a faster driver. Money can’t make you a better rider. You have to put the hard work in. #mtb
