You need to be somewhat careful with this technique. It lets you go way faster, way more confidently. But if your vision isn't great, you might miss debris/sand in the road while looking too far ahead. You also might ignore your limits (mechanical or skill) and end up writing a check you can't cash. I'd say practice this technique while going slow and gradually ramp up the pace.
