There's nothing wrong with being conservative on descents, Matchka. The only thing I can think of that I do is using my hips and lower body for banking the bike, counter-steering in turns, looking farther ahead on the road rather than down in front of you, and relaxing and feeling confident. Think of yourself as a nimble panther running down a mountain. Looking farther ahead I think makes the biggest difference in handling turns on descents. Hope that helps a little.

You probably have all the skills with all the mileage you've put in on the bike.
