BouncingRadicalI was putting my bike into the back of my truck after getting my endorsement, so I was still a little nervous after taking my tests. I hit the ramp at a little bit of an angle and when I gave it too much gas the ass end swipped to the side and my bike skid into my bed, which threw me over the side of the bed and skid along the ground a bit. It damaged my plastic sidings but other than that the bike is ok. I hurt my elbow a little, and really shook my confidence, it also really hurt my pride as I was in public heh.
To overcome my fear and to ensure I don’t doubt myself next time I put my bike in the bed, when I got home I put it in and out of the bed three or so times to show myself I could do it, and the slip up was a fluke of nerves and not hitting the ramp perfectly straight. I put it in perfectly all three times.
So as many before me said, practice makes perfect and builds confidence.
