Can catch, can't pass...

Hi Pete,
I can make up ground, even get close to your rear wheel through 7, 8, & 9.

But when I get leaned over in 9, it seems like my bike is going through a series of pot holes all in a row.

Is this what we call "chatter"?

Can you help with this?

It feels more like my rear wheel/frame.

The front is what gives me confidence through there, I get up on the tank/bars.

I can't figure out if the bike is telling me something needs adjusted, or that I'm at the limit.

You're pulling me through there awful damn fast, I can't seem to get that speed unless I'm behind a faster rider.

I'll need to see the bike and feel the how the shock is working, but honestly at 1:22's you may just be feeling normal movement or the feed back is too much for you. we can tune it out.

Peter, I think Nazo might be backing out. He apparently has female parts. If that has any impact on your availability saturday. If we aren't doing his bike I'd be up for a longer run.
