Second pic, little washboards....how do you adjust your rear suspension to handle this stuff? And also how will that adjustment affect the ride in other areas?

*ever go skiing, bombing down a hill on snow than run over the top of a tree? Immediately slows you down, that's what those washboards do to me.
