Former World Champion turned MTB coach extraordinaire, Katy Curd, laughs her head off as she tries to take a berm like I do. “I’m going to fall off,” she cries, arms rigid and body leaning the wrong way into the corner.
I’d always known that my front wheel wandered around on berms, and that at best I wafted from corner to corner, rather than flicked. Turns out I’d been riding back to front all this time, leaning with the bike instead of keeping the body upright and getting the bike over.
