1. GOING INTO THE DROP BARS 2. LET THE BIKE MOVE BENEATH YOU 3. LOOK AHEAD 4. PRACTICE “UNDER BIKING” 5. "SESSION"

Overall, to become more confident and skilled in the technical sections in a gravel race, ride your gravel bike more and practice the 5 must have skills above. See you out there on the trail!
