VENTURING WITH MOUNTAIN BIKES

Adventure with mountain bike indeed alternatives to hiking and mountaineering . When we use the MTB ( Mountain Bike ) , will feel the difference with the pattern of adventure on foot . Besides it is easy to enjoy the beauty of nature , also adopted distance field further and challenging . Almost all field lines that can be reached by foot , can be achieved with a mountain bike , except for uphill or downhill terrain sharply .

In addition to a range of broad and deep , with mountain biking we will feel sensations that are not measurable when encounter derivative term. Spur as tight - bike hardness , bulldoze the corner , jump over the bumps , drop off at ground niche is an experience never to be forgotten . Not to mention the strong wind blowing on my face when driving very fast in derivatives .

Everything is capable of adrenaline , a pounding heart and as - if in this world there is only us , the bike and the track . Not to mention when we drove way through bushes , twigs and leaves , as if through a mysterious passage , as if we'd entered another world . It took hours to fly high to be able to control the bike properly and safely at various tracks at high speed . It takes skill and a skill that can not be obtained without the instant play - play .

Increasingly frequent natural cycle to the more skilled we control the bike and know what we do when encounter various types of tracks . So we know exactly how the track drove in sandy soils , rocky tracks ( macadam ) , slippery clay track , and soil -lined ground rotting leaves and so on .

Before starting a mountain biking adventure in the wild , make sure the conditions in the state fit and healthy . Forget this activity when we are in a state not fit or sick . Due to the condition of the body is not healthy just looking wretched and will only make a fuss traveling companion . Unhealthy body condition would make no maximum concentration , no energy and will only worsen the condition of the body due to the body's organs are forced to work hard .

Make sure the bike the objec ready for combat . Check brake function something perfect , if brake pads are still thick and does not leak brake fluid ( hydraulic brakes ) , see also if the brake is still thick rubber ( v brake ) . Tighten bolt ( quick release ) in the hub . Also check the wind at the shock front and the rear is not too loud or too soft . Moisten with a chain lubricant . Especially dry rusty chain will be broken and broke .

Make sure the brake lever and gear shifting works perfectly . Similarly, the gear shifting system is working properly , do not jump - jump or do not want to move . When facing a steep uphill track and make sure the front teeth in the rear position light . Front crank smallest blades , rear blades and greatest seprocket . If too much light can be adjusted by the stroke . Pairs of saddle height , so we pedaled like a middle run , this will relieve the stroke . The more steep climbs , the greater the force of gravity to the rear . If our bodies are too backward so the front tire is likely to rise and we will fall . Keep the body leaning forward, to make the front tires stay flat on the track .

Pedal slowly , do not rush - rush or lusting , each three feet by three feet uphill track that we've been through . Breathe normally as possible , match the rhythm when the air off the pedal , when the pedal pull breathing . The more we played the more strongly we  . The rest is no problem fortitude and patience , to suffer .

When the derivative bulldoze long and steep enough , make sure your weight slightly backward . This meant that we balance the gravity force fore and rear tires remain on the track . Keep bike in our control . Do not be too eager to bulldoze derivatives . Look ahead, not the front tire . Derivatives in the track we will be moving very fast , by looking far ahead we were able to see a wider track in front of us , we will know and decide which one will take the path . Take a good look - both tracks , if there are rocks , roots that cross , inside the niche , muddy soil , moss-covered ground and so on .

steep and slippery , do not use the front brake , rear brake occasionally use to reduce speed . Pressing hard - harder rear brake lever will only make the rear tires spun and the resulting contraction of the rear tires lose ground , so it is difficult to control the bike .

Play nice mountain bike too risky and dangerous , then we need to wear a helmet , elbow protector , knee and gloves . In addition we would normally play in a location away from the crowds , away from the food stalls , shops or bicycle repair shop . Then backpack ( hydrobag ) that we should take our fill with all the equipment , such as bring snacks and drinks , rain jackets , P3K equipment , spare tires , pump , tire openers , key L , glue and tire , tool chain connector , oil lubricants , tire rod opening . And do not forget to bring wet wipes and dry wipes . Both of these items are very useful when we arrived - arrived , not overpowering like bowel movements , while the houses and the river is not there . Do not occasionally using stone , wood or leaves , because in addition to not hygienic also may cause itching or toxic .

CLOTHES FOR MOUNTAIN BIKE

1. evaporate sweat .

Materials used for mountain bike clothing should be able to pull perspiration from the skin and passes outside material , the outer layer is evaporated perspiration dries so quickly . And the result ? Cool , dry , and comfortable for cycling .

2 not stand / rude .

In fact , if the seams do not protrude / rough skin then we would not suffer due to abrasion - strings by stitching clothes on certain parts . And the result ? Motorists will be more comfortable to maneuver .

3.Padding .
Komprang shorts / tight . Mountain bikes have pading together at the crotch , and the result ? I think , you can certainly imagine .

Backpacks weighing us better but we are safe and comfortable adventure with mountain bikes in nature , than we want to lightly and did not carry the equipment . If something happens on the road , such as a flat tire or broken chain , hopes to bring the equipment just friends , if not , then we will lead our bikes along the tracks to find the garage , or car to the city charter .

If we want to assemble or buy a mountain bike , make sure what kind of bike we want tailored to the type of game and want to track what we've been through . If we just want to play on a track off road light , go out the dirt road in the village - the village . So our choice is the type of bike cross-country ( XC ) with a front shock only ( hardtail ) . If we dream bike is expected to be played in all fields , through the rise and fall is not too extreme then the choice of all mountain bike ( AM ) with full suspension in the front and the rear is perfect . Meanwhile, if we want a more exciting challenge , down the hill or mountain at high speed adrenaline , leaped high mound , or drop off 1-2 yards , then the bike option we raft is freeride ( FR ) or downhill ( DH ) .

If we already know exactly what kind of bike we want, and how much budget that we have. We 've been able to assemble the bike that we want . This is better assembling a mountain bike , can be adjusted with the budget we have . Because every time when we have more money and we want to challenge lauin frame and components we can upgrade to a higher one . Or replace the bike with a powerful spec .

Do not forget to bring communications tools such as HP or HP eksplore Satellite or if you want to take it to a new track maps and GPS is highly recommended . GPS is useful to record our journey , so that we will return to the track we did not bother to ask or remember - remember . Or if we lost we would be led back to the original track . GPS also tells us the average - average cycling speed ( average speed ) , the maximum speed on downhill ( max speed ) , time to move ( moving time ) , mileage ( odo meter ) , quiet time / rest ( stop time ) , the contours of the track , ground height of the sea surface and so on .
