Uphill tip. It's OK to use bigger cogs. If you have topped out at 50t, don't despair. Chain rings are available all the way down to 22t. If that fails, there are smaller wheels. If that fails, there is always e-bikes.

Something I always whisper in my own ear is (ready positions) that means off the seat elbows up and pedal position. Thanks for putting this together for us all to enjoy and learn from.

I will be riding a Polygon Siskiu T7 here in the very wet, cold Kent, Washington area. It would be nice if you could do a video about riding in wet weather!

Where are you guys riding? It looks like a great place to session. I ride a Santa Cruz Heckler 9 mx 2022, my dream bike even though it is e-bike. Its heavy but so fun. I ride it everywhere.
