I guess this question is aimed at the more advanced dirt riders - but any suggestions are will do, as always
When traveling long windy gravel roads, how does one keep their speed around the corners and control the bikes sliding without toppling over??
I have not even tried yet, and would like to do some practicing on my next ride. From my mountain biking experience, I am pretty familiar with most of the physical laws when it comes to speeding offroad, but when it comes to accelerating around a gravel corner, I can only assume that I should just stand, stay upright(or lean slightly inwards) and throttle it...
Enlighten me
