How do I start Downhill Mountain bike racing?
I am 13, I love mountain biking and I am quite good at it. I was wondering, how do I start out, I already have a bike (Kona Stinky Garbanzo) and all of my gear so don’t say I should get a bike. I get out and ride at least 7-10 hours a week, and I want to start racing, please help!
join any bike clubs, keep on practicing, have fun.
Hi, you should check out online MTB communities like pinkbike.com, vitalmtb.com, and ridemonkey.com. Also, look up your local Trail riding clubs/leagues…the one where I’m based is socaltrailriders.org. That should get you started..and be sure to check out http://www.nemacycling.com for your gear and join us (Nema International) on Facebook: we have posts and info all the time from our community members about local events. Ride on, kid! Best of luck!
