Technical trail or singletrack riding is my obsession, from now on Im going to term it as All Mountain Riding. It will refer to both Mtn bike and trail bike since Im going to ride both. Im always a sucker for slow speed and very technical trail and I hope more riders will appreciate this kind of riding be it on pedal powered or motorised.. It will be good for the environment and less damaging too.
To be able to conquer obstacles and beat them flat is a very satisfying self accomplishement which are difficult to explain. Singletracks and the environment is my playground, the closer it is to my backdoor the better.
It is ideal if we can do it on trials bike but not neccessary. Singletracks can be ridden on almost any suitably set up mountain bikes and trailbikes which are readily available and custom tailored to your riding style. It does not need to have miles of suspension travel or festooned with designer parts which definetely cost lots of money and about ten or twelve rearwheel horsepower will do just fine........or two strong legs!!!
Its not what you ride but how you ride and where you ride so I shall enjoy every minute of it while I still can.
