The first off road trip was caused by trying to catch up with someone riding a lot faster was it not. That says to me stop trying so hard, back off to a speed more in line with your own abilities.

If you want to rag the balls off your bike then build up to that slowly.

I do not agree that he should continue to push that hard, because that always ends in tears. But just easing off a little would be fine.
