Thanks Jim,

Some of our curbs do have the wheelchair ramp like indentations so they are no problem but I am just wanting to start learning some basic stuff so I can eventually start doing some downhill riding when this injury has resolved. I have a broken arm in a cast so my bike handling is a little awkward right now.
