MTB Course: Basic Mountain Bike Lessons for Beginners

Welcome to this new section that aims to teach you how to ride MTB in 4 simple and short episodes: 3 dedicated to the basic technique and a bonus lesson.

We tackled the basics of MTB riding: the neutral position, the curves, the steeps and (extra lesson) the drops. By beginner we mean the user who still wants to approach single tracks: if you ride a cycle path with a 160mm full, I'm sorry to tell you, but you're not doing mtb but cycle touring. Nothing wrong, indeed, but I have to be hard and sincere.

Mountain biking is a highly technical sport but, once tamed, it can take us anywhere and safely, without risking going out every weekend! Space for videos.

ppgad@pucrs.br I am passionate about everything that has 2 wheels: in my youth I practiced competitive cycling on the road and on the track with good results. At the age of 18 I moved to cross country competing at national/international level as U23. Once I passed Elite, I made the choice to take things easier from the training point of view, and that's how my love for gravity disciplines was born, training as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made my passion my profession by managing 3 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way, everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube 'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
