For my modest pace, the bike wants to be in third gear as the track starts to rise, with a downshift to second once it's slowed enough for entry. I just can't seem to get it right and have blown that corner quite often attempting to make the shift properly.

Cool. I love that you guys have some very specific things that you wish to work on. Now, upon first reading them, they may seem like they are totally different skills/techniques but there is one thing that can help drastically in both of those situations. Situation 1....coming into a turn quicker, what things can help with turn entry? Hint: What if you knew EXACTLY where you wanted to be to be at turn entry? Would you be able to get there quicker with more accuracy?
Situation 2.....getting a downshift right/consistently. Hint: What if you knew EXACTLY where you needed to downshift into second gear? Would that help with accuracy and consistency? what skill am I talking about here?
