Mountain Biking is definitely one of the most enthusiastic, eclectic, energetic and thrilling sports around. The trusted advice of an expert comes to the rescue when going for Mountain Biking for the first time, or any time, just to gain more knowledge and improve your skills. Here are 7 reasons to book a mountain bike guide.

1. Control

Modern mountain bikes can come with many advanced features, and therefore it becomes necessary to learn these functions to operate smoothly so you can focus on riding instead of getting puzzled with the use of these buttons. An expert will not only guide you about learning all the features and utilizing them, but also setting it up properly without any hassles.

2. Ride new trails

Life offers something new at every stage and juncture. Just in case you have just shifted to a new place or are traveling somewhere, you have exciting reasons to explore new trails from the natives of that place. A professional MTB guide will unleash those treasured hotspots that you were oblivious to.

The valuable experience and skill-set of a professional guide will make you a progressive mountain bike rider and inculcate enough knowledge in you to pass on to next generations.

3. Feedback helps make Progress

Instead of trying to figure out the situation and errors yourself, make use of the wealth of information and education coming from a mountain bike guide. On your own, you may not be able to take the correct lessons from your mistakes, whereas the blend of quick observation, analysis, constant feedback from the guide will make you a perfect mountain bike rider in a few days by using the right techniques such as correcting your body posture and movement.

4. Safety comes first

To look adventurous and flamboyant, people risk their lives during mountain bike riding. I would advise everyone to overcome obstacles carefully. The calibre and skill-set of the guide will be instrumental in preventing injuries, dangers or bike damage. The expert guidance would also teach you to develop excellent and proven bike-handling skills in a tried and tested framework.

5. Building confidence

Confidence is the key to success in any endeavour. Are you often left wondering what went wrong, even when you pushed your limits? At this moment, it is imperative to discover your weaknesses and let the expert observation of the Guide pull you out of your misery, and boost your confidence through feedback and training.

6. Bike Operation

The most important aspect of a successful ride to the mountains is to purchase a mountain bike in a suitable shape and size with proper fitting and set-up. Humans come in all shapes and sizes. Hence arises the need to hire a good mountain bike guide to check if your ride would be enjoyable and without any goofs or blunders. For reasons that include bike adjustment and modification to suit the bike rider. Like I said earlier, the right fitting of the bike makes you comfortable, whereas the lack of these attributes can make riding quite difficult, exhausting, uncomfortable and maybe hazardous.

7. Meet new people

Engage in MTB sessions to meet new people, mingle with new riders and expand your horizons. Get to know new people, make friends, explore new areas of the mountains, and maybe learn a thing or two from them.  Participating in a mountain bike tuition session is instrumental in learning new skills and socialising with interesting people with a similar passion for traveling.
