another great video Flynn! shame about your first recording getting messed up. so cool that your place has tuition available (AND pizza!!!), well done taking part. As someone who also suffers with social anxiety, I know exactly how you feel. Even just talking to random folk like you were doing would get me sooooo worked up. It is so much to learn, Im glad yer taking it at your own pace as trying too much too fast is the surefire way to a fall. Every video you inspire me, perhaps someday i'll even seek out coaching up here for masel tae. as I am very much a complete novice haha 🤣 Waiting for this rain to sod off before I can get back out sadly, hopefully get to pick up my new bike this week though 😁
Lesson learnt, check before going out for the day! The pizza was a bonus, that dip was beautiful, I barely eat the crusts and I eat almost EVERYTHING, had to work if off then though did I 😅 I'm sorry to hear you suffer with it, it's difficult to overcome, but if you put yourself in the difficult positions then with time it does get better, especially when you have outgoing people around who are really welcoming like I had with the women's session :) The mountain bike community is so chill and friendly, I do find it easy to just strike up a conversation, it's kind of easier to when the weather is a big ice breaker at the moment! Aw thank you, I'm glad that these videos inspire someone, it's amazing to see and I'm glad to help in any way I can with these videos. Coaching is a great idea to start off, my coach was so happy that I knew NOTHING about how to do the basics, they love a blank slate. I saw your bike btw, a Whyte, God damn :p
I think it's actually good to be slightly scared, at least it's better then being over confident. More accidents happen to people that over estimate their abilities. Having said that, you seem to be enjoying yourself better, that's good 👍
For sure! I think there's a fine balance between being weary and being confident, you should know your limits. I am definitely enjoying myself. When I get my bike back from the service I'll be trying to record wheelie progress videos because I can't do that yet :'(

Omg that pizza looked good
The pizza was delicious but that dip was beyond my expectations 🤯
Keep going! Push into that jump, make sure you’re on the balls of your feet. And standing Just some tips I found helpfully.
Thank you! I do try to "stand up to the jump" but my fear gets the best of me sometimes 😅
