This Was Only My Third Time Mountain Biking!

Trials biking skills definitely help on the MTB trails in a number of ways such as riding this narrow rock ridge

This past weekend, one of my trials biking crew and his wife loaned me a hardtail and took me mountain biking at Hurd State Park. I’d only been mountain biking twice before (a couple years ago) and have been wanting to hit the trails again for quite a while. In fact, I think I need to make this a habit. Man, what a blast!

While I’m certainly not going to win any biking speed records, my trials experience has definitely helped me tackle some of the obstacles on the trail. I only ‘dabbed’ a handful of times. I’m sure that my speed will increase with comfort on the bike and on the trails.

Thanks to A&Z for taking me out on the trail, loaning me a cool MTB, and filming me with the follow cam. You guys rock!
