How To Ride Rocky Trails On Your Mountain Bike | MTB Skills
HOSTED BY: https://fatmtnbike.com
Riding your mountain bike on rocky terrain can be a battle for a number of different reasons. The mental battle that goes hand in hand with the higher consequences possible for both bike and body on the hardest of surfaces is a very tricky problem to overcome. We've all been through it, and the truth is that a simple section of trail which you could ride with your eyes closed gets much more difficult when made of or surrounded by rocks. Anna Cipullo is on hand in Finale Ligure (a great, rocky place to demonstrate these issues) to talk you through how to judge grip and develop trust in rocky terrain, with a few more top tips to help you along the way.
