However, the majority of mountain biking falls into the categories of Trail and Cross Country riding styles.
Mountain bikers ride on off-road trails such as singletrek, back-country roads, fire roads, and often venture to ski resorts that stay open in the summer for such activities. Because riders are often far from civilization, there is a strong ethic of self-reliance in the sport. Riders learn to repair broken bikes and flat tires to avoid being stranded.
