I have to admit to a healthy respect for downhill bends. I normally end up in low gears to stop the bike running away from me and still hitting brakes too hard to loose speed before I run through the bend without brakes.

Practice make perfect but as a fair weather rider why does the missus find me huge DIY projects when the sun shines. Hence no practice.
