Moutain Biking Essentials
from: Maxx Adventure TravelMountain biking requires preparation and here's a list some of the stuff you should always take with you. These are the essentials, so make note:
1. Back pack: a camelback or mule is a great idea.
2. Waterproof: the type that packs down very small is best.
3. Water: you require at least 2 liters for a long ride.
4. Food: sandwiches and energy bars are best to have with you.
5. Pump: bring along a good one because the small mini pumps are a waste of time and money.
6. Tire levers if you need them.
7. Two small inner tubes.
8. A piece of medium emery paper about 3 inches long and an inch wide.
9. A cut up tube of toothpaste for pinch punctures or to use as a tire boot.
10. A carpet needle.
11. A card of linen thread to repair torn tires.
12. A good chain splitter.
13. At least two black pins. You should tape these to the inside lid of your puncture repair kit.
14. A set of allen wrenches. The penknife style is best.
15. A small screwdriver.
16. A first aid kit that includes elastic bandages.
17. A Spokey spoke key.
18. A felt tip pen that will show on inner tubes.
19. Some lunch and phone money.
If you bring along everything in this list, you shouldn't have any problems during your long mountain bike rides. Everything on the list serves a purpose. If you've ever been mountain biking you'll know just how important having the proper supplies can actually be.
