1. Choose a route that is suitable for your preparation level
Inform yourself about the technical and physical difficulty of the trails, in order not to find yourself on a route that isn't suitable for you. Respect other users, letting them past and maintaining a speed in line with your abilities.
2. Use the right bike
Not all bikes are the same, and depending on the route you choose, there are bikes that can help or hinder your trip. Choose the right one!
3. Choose suitable equipment
Always wear a helmet. If you are riding downhill on technical trails or in bike parks, add knee pads, gloves and a back protector.
4. Bring useful equipment, just in case
Don't forget a puncture repair kit and some tools for fixing possible small problems. This way you will avoid having to push your bike for hours to reach an assistance point.
5. It is better to go together
When following technical trails in the mountains, it is a good idea not to go alone. Travelling in a group of 2-3 bikers is ideal for biking in safety without disturbing the environment and its inhabitants too much.
