Yeah, but there's something about learning when you're a kid, you know? When your body does it instinctively. When you're a grownup, you have to understand it intellectually, THEN you can process it through your body.
I took judo as a small kid and even now I usually can fall safely (knock on wood), because the first part of every class was devoted to falling. Now, the instinct does it for me. Not so much riding... sigh.
Who was it who said youth is wasted on the young?
