Mountain biking

Greetings my fellow readers, in this post, I will share with you about mountain biking. I have been interested in this sport since I was in form 5. This is because this sport is so manly dangerous and very high in risk and the risk is typically death or serious injuries. Now, I realized that I do not have enough bravery to do such things, so I decided to enjoy watching the mountain bikers biking in youtube.
          Mountain biking is the sport of riding bicycles off-road, often over rough terrain, using specially designed mountain bikes. Mountain bikes share similarities with other bikes, but incorporate features designed to enhance durability and performance in rough terrain.

Mountain biking can generally be broken down into multiple categories: cross country, trail riding, all mountain (also referred as "Enduro"), downhill, free ride and dirt jumping. However, the majority of mountain biking falls into categories of Trail and Cross Country riding styles.
          This individual sport requires endurance, core strength and balance, bike handling skills, and self reliance. Advanced riders pursue both steep technical descents and high incline climbs. In the case of freeriding, downhilling and dirt jumping, aerial maneuvers are performed off both natural features and specially constructed jumps and ramps. This is one of the hundreds videos that I have watched.
