Title: Mountain Biking: Over the Edge by Bill Strickland, Susan Demattei ISBN: 0070387036 Publisher: International Marine/Ragged Mountain Press Pub. Date: 01 May, 1998 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $15.95 |

Summary: Short , Sweet, Informative
Comment: My complaint with most mountain bike "how-to" guides is that they gear the reader toward being a professional rider. That's because they are most often written by professional riders. Seldom has a book been written that just covers the basic questions like "How do I jump a small dirt mound?" or "What is the difference between the different types of rear-suspensions that are available?" This book answers those basic questions without getting into so much detail that the average rider will be bored. The text and illustrations are clear, concise, and entertaining. The outline of the book brings the reader from shopping for their first bike, right up through explaining some of the most basic "expert" techniques. But, again, the book is very much geared toward first time or beginner riders and is intended to gradually step them up through the ranks of bad, to better, to good.
In short, this book covers most all of the basic techniques you will need to be a good novice mountain bike rider. And that's exactly what I want to be.
