Oh I deffinetly agree with that, but after a few laps when it spreads out and the kickass people take the front, and the worser people fall behind then the only thing to worry about is your bike breaking (off a jump or something) corners and landings. I mean riding in trails and xc racing is pretty freaking dangerous because you're weaving in and out of trees and sh*t and in trails there is sharp corners that you can't see around (kinda like when I crashed).
