I have been riding a mountain bike for a few years and just bought my first road bike. I took it out for an inaugural ride last night and I was so scared going down a moderate hill. Any advice for newbies?

Welcome to the "real" world of cycling. ;)

Practice and "becoming one with the bike" is what it takes to get over the fear.
