If you ride/cycle your bike on dirt trails, is it called mountain biking? |
Is there such thing as trail biking? the real answer is: there is no such thing as "mountian biking" There are many styles. there is Downhill(going strictly downhill usually mountian side), XC or cross country [which can be further broken down into just general XC, or single track (trail is one bike width), or double track (trail is two bike widths)], the last style of riding that would be of concern to you is free riding which tends to encompass all of the above. there is also dirt jumping but that is hopping onto ledges and off rocks and stuff. What are you smoking? never., if u ride ur bike on mountains, its called mountain biking..!!! I think it is your point of view. I say if you are riding a mountain bike on a mountain bike course then for sure it is... If you are riding on a trail like a dirt road in the edge of a national forest then it doesnt really matter... The bone heads who jup 40 foot drops will never agree unless you do 40 foot drops too... I would tend to call it riding trails or trail riding just to not be associated to doing free-ride or huckster style riding... But For those who do jumps... Cool... go for it!!! I agree with Ross. I'm voting for Ross in 2008! nm ROSS!!! BBBOO-YEAAA!! Funny question that I run into all the time. I say I mtn bike in texas and people ask me where the mountains are. I think that is why some call it XC (crosscountry), ATB (all terrain biking), or just offroad riding. |
