5.0 out of 5 stars
great book,
By adams "biker" (Tampa, FL USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Gear Higher: The Bicycle Racer's Handbook of Techniques (Paperback)
The book is great.
It doesn't contain much information about mountain bike tricks and stunts. It covers mostly cornering, types of corners and cornering tactics, but what's more important it will help you spend your "$10 attention bill" wiser. I would suggest to read first "Mastering mountain bike skills" by Brian Lopez and Lee McCormack. Then train. When you're ready switch to this book. Learn how to use your attention, concentrate, plan your race, choose reference and timing points, visualize, read the course, make proper decisions beforehand, overcome psychological barriers, choose cornering tactic, analyze your mistakes, etc. When you're done with it, buy and read "The Mountain Biker's Training Bible" by Joe Friel. Then train, rest, train some more, rest, train harder, rest, then race. Happy riding. |
