I'm interested as to who trots down hills. I don't do it on the road, but we have a large common out the back that is very very hilly and I think it's great for training.
When I first got my boy he would pick his way down a hill taking ages in walk - he was literally terrified - think it's due to a nasty fall in the past on his front shoulder and may well have caused his blindness too.
Anyhow, he's a brave boy and is now trotting down good inclines and it's really built his confidence - obviously alot of it is down to how you ride - make sure I'm sat right back and riding confidently.
Anyone else do this?
