If all your doing is DH's, then naturally you're not getting as much a lung-buster workout as Cross Country & Uphill riding demands. Not taking anything away from DH riding or racing, but a 700lb person can ride DH, but might not be able to pedal the bike on level ground.... See my point? If your riding doesn't seem to be making you any stronger, then maybe you should be climbing more or riding in harder places.
