Haven’t given it much thought but I guess practice makes perfect. I’ve only ever ridden RABs at full speed while racing, so I’ve probably only done it a handful of times. Find a quiet test RAB and do loads of U turns, even better, a pair of RABs. You’ll be confident finding your line after a dozen goes.
When we go to Majorca it takes me a couple of days before I find my line decending hairpins.

I think I'm losing lots of seconds by taking them too slowly.
Measure the area under the graph, you'll find you're not losing as much as you think.

Any suggestions for technique on U turns / mini roundabouts?

Is it just a matter of practice until I find the line between victory and a big slidey crash?
