Hey Ryan! Beautiful avitar! Love it!

One thing you can do to test your shoulders, is to flap your arms as you go along... Like a chicken, while still holding the bars... That loosens your arms (A friend taught me that when I first started and she said I looked stiff). You don't have to do it all the time but randomly (hopefully not in the middle of a turn or unsafe moment) just to remind your body to relax.

Sometimes I forget to ease up on the handlebars and have to remind myself that they are handle bars not death grip bars.
