Help! I am hopeless at rut riding
(Preview)
I've been riding for many years but still find riding rutted single track impossible to master. Any tips? I do try to look ahead and ride standing up but still land up with flailing legs all too often and land up knackered and dis-spirited. Any advice gratefully received.
