MTB 101: Mountain bike etiquette - How to ride at the front [TrailTalk Series]

Mountain biking with a group can be a lot of fun, but everyone has a role to play. Knowing your responsibilities as a lead rider ensures everyone behind you can enjoy the trails to the fullest. Side note “riding in the lead” and being a “ride leader” are two completely different scenarios. Being a ride leader comes with a whole new set of responsibilities and should be the subject of another video. In this episode of TrailTalk we’ll discuss what types of things you should be calling out. How to interact with other user groups and riders. A few tips on riding etiquette. And finally, knowing your ability level and when it’s time to step aside. So the next time you’re on a ride and you find yourself at the front of the group, you’ll know what to do.
