"Hi, my name is Rick Van Hoorn and I'm here to talk about mountain biking for Expert Village. Some other items that you might want to be bringing mountain bike riding with you and I highly recommend this is sunscreen. Screen up before you hit the trails, screen up while you've been on the trail because once you're sweating it's going to wash off I don't care what kind you use, it will wash off so continue to bring or continue to use sunscreen on your ride. I also carry my tool kit with me we talked about that, we talked about the pump as well. Something else you want to bring with you is food. You need to bring some food, any kind of high energy bars are really good. Fruit is really good as well, apples, bananas squish easily I don't know if you want to bring those and oranges are really good as well. Other things to bring along with you would be a bandanna, might be used also for first aid supply, first aid kit would be good as well as some kind of electrolyte drink that you could dump into your water if you need it."
