keep riding as much as you can, and when you do ride, push yourself. Try not to do pointless miles, push yourself as hard as you can. Make yourself a semi-long loop and then time yourself, then go back there like once a wek and time yourself again so you can measure improvements. Good luck.

Practice on a semi-long loop with a LOT of climbing. If you get used to climbing, fast, you'll do good.......unless its shorttrack.
O yeah, play lots of Downhill Domination and learn how to throw waterbottles to take out your opponents!
