Ok so instead of jacking the other post I thought I'd start my own.
I'm new to downhill and really enjoy riding with friends but when it comes to a crowded race weekend I hate it. I don't like being in constant fear of getting run over. (not that that's going to happen most people are nice about it) I just freak out at the sound of someone coming up on me at mock 1 speed.
Do any other women dislike practice simply because of the traffic on the trail? Am I going to get over this fear as I get better and faster?
