LOL nothing like a pro compared to you. It's a much, much larger gap.
Seriously though, you can ride solo or with a group of your approx skill level to get better. You can also ride at least once or twice a week with your significant other, friends & family just for fun. If you're not getting enough of a workout on the casual rides, get on a 29er with 2.3" knobs and give it a go.
