Got one pic from Picman with me wheelying over the mountain. What felt like about 12-18 inches was only about 6.

What does this tell me

1. I have no feel for how high the front is
2. I can't wheelie
3. I could hit the mountain faster
4. Maybe I'm leaning too far forward??

Just had a quick look at the video of me following you (which I'll extract this weekend), and we were travelling similar lines up the mountain, with only minor front wheel lift, so I guess it's a confidence thing for us both. Me from not being any good at wheelies, and you because of the incident of landing crossed up.

Shame we're so far away from cadwell we can't easily revisit and try again..
