Caring for your mountain bike (MTB) is essential for several reasons, especially given the demands placed on it by off-road terrain. Here’s a breakdown of why regular maintenance and proper care are important:

The importance of a REST DAY!...
Mountain biking (MTB) is one of the most physically demanding and mentally engaging sports out there. Whether you're tackling technical trails, grinding up steep climbs, or hammering down descents, your body and mind are under constant stress. While it’s tempting to push hard every day, especially when progress feels within reach, one of the most crucial aspects of any MTB training plan is rest. Specifically, taking at least one full day off each week can be the key to unlocking your potential and staying healthy in the long run.
