Bike RidinG

off-Road RidinG

Off  road  riding  usually  involves  many,  many
variables  such  as  constantly  changing  traction,
obstacles,  changes  in  line  of  sight,  up  hill,  down
hill, soft surfaces, dry surfaces, wet surfaces. Off
road  riding  requires  managing  a  complex  and
constantly  changing  rider–to-bicycle  feedback
loop of traction, weight distribution, application of
power,  application  of  brakes  and  steering  driven
by the conditions one encounters. The complexity
and  ever-changing  nature  of  off  road  riding

requires focus, concentration, strength, fitness

and learning to read the trail. The art of managing
all this while surrounded by nature makes this a
challenging and wonderful sport.

If you have ridden your mountain bike on a paved
road, or on a gravel or dirt road, you have done
very little in the way of learning to mountain bike.
Learning to ride off road is a process. It does not
automatically occur because you have a mountain
bike. Learning to ride off road does not come from
watching “extreme” mountain bike videos or TV.

In fact the riders in those films are professional

entertainers and/or daredevils, not teachers.

For starters, it is almost certain you will

fall off.

Get training! Join a club and find experienced

people to teach you. It is likely that your retailer
can hook you up with local rides. Practice and
learn to stay in control. Carefully, progressively,
learn to expand your limits, but always ride
within them.

There  are  now  many  different  kinds  of
“mountain  bikes.”      Cannondale  makes
mountain  bikes  ranging  from  the  light,  nimble
Rush and Scalpels, designed for cross country
(XC) racing, to our rugged, long-travel freeride
bikes.  A Scalpel is not designed for freeride!   If
you try using your bike for something it was not
intended,  you may break it with risk of serious
injury, paralysis or death.

Matching the intended use of any kind of
mountain bike to your expected riding is
import.

and insPeCtion.

Clean your bike after every ride and conduct a
pre-ride inspection before every ride.   Detailed
inspection  as  outlined  in  SECTION  D.  in  this
manual  is  needed  more  often  than  for  road
bikes. Failure to keep up with maintenance and
inspection  increases  the  risk  of  an  accident,
with risk of serious injury, paralysis or death.
