I recommend shifting up a gear, I know you weren’t comfortable and this is relatively old but, you can pin point your arm pump to holding all of your body weight up when you’re engine is slowing you down that much. Shift up a gear, and arch your back, turn your elbows out, this will take all the leverage off your forearms and put it on your shoulders and back. Also stand on the balls of your feet (right behind your toes), and turn your toes in toward the cases, this will force you to squeeze the bike with your knees, also reducing pump.
Nice! I talked to one of yall at CGI that Sunday. CGI was a muddy shit show that day! Even though they tried to make it appear on IG that the ride was still great! LOL. That rain made things crazy deep in the ruts!
You from Alabama? I’m from NE Alabama, Calhoun county. Buddy I graduated HS with helps a couple kids on 65s with riding/training for Loretta’s. They go to Monster Mountain in Tallassee, AL a lot. Sick spot
