Personally, I mix it up with MTB, Road, Triathlon, Commuting. You?

  • Am I missing something, or have you just posted in the MTB section asking what type of riding people do?

  • MTB, roadie and commuting.
    Can only pick one option though.

    May be better to have a poll in the MTB General forum asking users if they do XC, DH, DJ, FR etc. Most people will use their cycling skills for more than one genre though

  • Understood, fair points, although whilst I love MTB as my favourite riding discipline, I probably ride my road bike more frequently than MTB, and definately commute more often than any of the other options...

    Genuinly interested to get a feel for the mix of riding. I love having the choice.

    Thanks

    I can't see how I can fill in the poll - I ride MTB, road, commute (on either bike) and enter 2-3 triathlons a year.

    I don't do track - wouldn't mind having a go though.

    As for other, does turbo trainer count?

    Yeah, I commute the most but I don't really count that as cycling as such. It is not something I really enjoy, it's just a way to get to work.
    You only need two tools: WD40 and Duck Tape.
    If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
    If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.
  • I would say its pretty obvious that all the people searching the 'MOUNTAIN BIKE' forum will ride mountain bikes :lol:

    XC!

    Might be better if was entitled 'do you ride any other disciplines?'.

    I'm predominantly a roadie but I've time trialed ridden the track and cyclocross. The 2 things that stop me doing everything cycling are time and money.
