    aren’t most of them just walking?

    when one is actually riding there’s less incentive to stop and take photos :o)

    Very hard to go up a mountain without some hike a bike.

    I actually think defining both mountains and mountainbiking is rather hard. My preferred definition for a mountain is:

    “you can fall off a mountain, you fall down a hill”

    So some of the munroes are just big hills by that definition, but some of the lakes stuff are definitely mountains.

    As for defining mountainbiking – I do some riding near me – its off-road and its singletrack – but could be ridden on a roadbike without any issues and has virtually no climbing

    Did nip into Dalby and do some old school stuff and trails that I was part of building back in the day.

    I definitely think there’s a need to re-classify some types of off-road cycling – the stuff that doesn’t involve mountains and such (e.g. UK trail parks).

    Howabout:

    Off-road
    Recreational
    Cycling

    There would have to be some re-naming of the various governing bodies and such, but I’m sure some umbrella Association could over see it all.

    Funding for this new Association might be problematic, but perhaps there could be some money to be made in selling branded clothing? Then we’d all have an excuse for wearing ORCA suits….
