If you don't feel that fast, you'll be fine in beginner. If you've never DHed before, ride the mountain a few times before racing, it's a different beast than normal XC riding. T.

In the woods I feel pretty fast for the ammount of DH that I do, as for fire roads and open fast DH stuff I don't know, but when it comes to turns on fire roads I am slow becasue I think I will slide out. Anybody have pics of the course's. Thanks if you do.
