Mountain Biking Equipment Trail
Mountain biking tips?
I just tried mountain biking for the first time today. Idon’t have an actual mountain bike yet (it’s a cruiser). But the trails I’m trying are easy mountain biking trails. I want to make sure I enjoy it before investing in another bike. Do you have any tips on mountain biking? Tips on riding rather than equipment are especially useful at this point. Thanks
Learn to use your gears fully, as well as learning how to brake in different situations. Also, experiment with different positions while riding (such as standing, with no weight on the seat, standing with body over back wheel, etc) just learn to use your center of mass and how it affects you while riding different terrain.
