Interesting comment Hugo! In terms of pushing myself I really see both sides. With others I’m surely able to try features that spook me, probably moreso than riding alone —- but sometimes it’s a frenetic experience, almost surprised afterwords, “wait did I actually just ride that?”
In contrast to solo rides where that zen feeling is much easier to reach, and I can visualize myself doing the tough moves, then hitting them (haha or just as often not hitting them if Zen is in short supply that day)
