Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Rick Van Hoorn and here to talk about mountain biking for Expert Village. Okay, you decide you want to go mountain bike riding and you bought a really nice mountain bike, you really don't know how to ride it yet so you need to go out and practice a little bit. So what I recommend you do is you get on that bike and you start with easy rolling terrain. You need to know things like how much travel you get on your forks, things like this. You're not going to hit that bump, are you going to be able to go over with those forks, you're going to go flying over your handlebars, part of the learning process. You're also going to need to know the terrain you're riding on, it's going to help you improve your skills as well. Another good thing to do is ride with somebody who is better than you, they're going to help you and just by watching them ride you are going to learn how to do some better riding skills yourself. Another great way to learn how to be a mountain bike rider is to help teach somebody else."
