Good piece - one that needed to be written. The pre-descent meditation. The
alignment of chakras through breathing, and suffering. As a rider from an area
with a little more flow(up and down) and a little less chunk, the climbing in
the Whistler area has always been not only gut wrenching but mind opening. One
major benefit I noticed after my last tech climb in the Whistler Valley, was
the improvement in speed and flow on the well earned descent. The same body
english(language - PC?) used to efficiently get up and over the roots and
rocks on the climb turns on the out to be the same technique used to flow and
carry speed on the descent. Climbing in Whistler Valley makes you a better
descender.
