When you feel intimidated or anxious about a mountain bike trail, feature, jump or drop you can absolutely flip that anxiety to excitement and confidence! Each MTB ride, you're going to focus on the best possible outcome, release expectations, use positive affirmations and give yourself grace! You're not who you thought you were... you're better!
Join Dan & Sage as they discuss the mindset for optimal success and fun on mountain bikes! Are 12-speed cassettes really necessary for mountain bikes? Did the harsh Arizona terrain change Sage's mind about MTB pads? How important is the MTB community for progression? Sage is feeling confident jumping the Infinity Dirt Jumper but is Dan ready to send the bike jumps at the local bike park? Follow along as the boys discuss how to stack wins, gain confidence and build up to success with patience and excitement!
