Definitely drop first. Regardless of the bumps. You won't be bouncing around anymore if you get stiff enough springs, you just get a big jolt. Just learn the roads and know where in each lane all the bumps and holes are and you'll be fine.
Also. Use the Edit button when posting after yourself so you don't have like 6 posts in a row. And you can multi-quote as well so you could put all of those together.
