Mountain Bike Racing
Mountain Bike Races occur in
the Fall from September until November. Mountain bike racing
pairs the skills of off-road riding and handling with extreme
athletic endurance. In order to be successful one need to pair
skill and speed. Skill without speed or speed without skill
are not enough. Are you tough enough to race through the cold
mud? Do you have the skills and mental toughness to change a
flat tire in under a minute? Tough as it is, mountain bike
racing is incredibly rewarding.
There are three
types of mountain bike races: cross country, downhill, and dual
slalom. Cross country takes place on a loop and usually has varying
types of terrain. Downhill is fairly self explanatory simple:
reach the bottom of a hill faster than everyone else. Dual slalom is
a sprint type of race where two racers compete at the same time on
parallel courses.
