What pedals and shoes? Platform and pin size, plus grip of the shoes makes a difference also.
Superstar Nano, Teva, long pins. If anything theres too much grip – have to really lift the foot to relocate.
^^ +1 foot position and heels down (something I frequently forget)
Conscious of foot position and heels down – properly steep stuff like White Honky and switchbacks are fine.
There are a couple of log drops on Thai Bride (over on Winterfold) that must be as big and I’d no problem on those.
Great trail… needs more dirt on log, has quite a kick now, probably didn’t help Si!!!
Maybe I need to get a spade out and do a bit of work. It’s got to be that little kick – so just more heels on it? (or try to bunny hop it – that could end well….)
We rode 40km yesterday afternoon Mickleham/Ranmore and didn’t see a single other person riding off-road. Such a difference to Peaslake.
