Word of wisdom, NEVER try to go fast, just put 110% effort in being SMOOTH, hitting your markers consistently, keeping your eyes up. And guess what you will soon be FAST AND SMOOTH, without trying.

Forcing yourself to ride fast only brings on pucker moments, and pucker moments slow most sane humans down.
