Trail etiquette
Do’s and don’ts with regard to mountain biking
Another weekend of great riding around the NB but I have noticed some consistent practices that really give me the sh!ts. Interested in people's views on below.
1)Making A lines into B lines – if you can’t ride the A line, practice, don’t put rocks down or convert it into a permanent B line. Examples include 19th hole roll off and gap jump coming down the new section into the hydro lab at the dam.
Talk about how to overtake?
Does anybody know that guy who was riding Manly dam today at 1.30pm, wearing a red top, black camel back and knee/shin guards?
I overtook him on my first lap before the golf course single track but then he caught me up and I immediately asked him if he wanted to overtake me to which he replied yes. So I went to the right and shouted to my left. However, he stayed behind my wheel so I slowed down even more and said again, to my left. He still stayed behind my wheel. So I asked him whether he wanted to overtake me or not.
