Apart from the obvious DH and XC the rest of them are all **** words aren't they.

All Mountain and Freeride - wtf are they meant to be?

freeride is the least free type of mountainbiking. redbull rampage for example - there are teams grooming a run-up to the drops, northshore where you have to ride along a ladder built by an amateur chippy. That is not as free a ride as blatting down a moorland hillside dodging the gorse and the sheep.

I wouldn't worry about it if I were you.

It's all just pissing about on bikes. 8)

I agree wholeheartedly!

Took this picture of Mr LoulaBella in the Dales on Friday, we are still not sure what the sheep get up to.

My guess is they hide whenever they see a man on a bike wearing his pyjamas 😉

Bikes is bikes is bikes. They're all really good fun, and so long as they don't have 29" wheels or stupid handlebars then they're OK in my book, and you're welcome to ride them how you want.
