Wear Your Protective Gear
Biking, mountain biking in particular, has a lot of injuries in it. Wear your armour!!! I wear kneepads, a long sleeve jersey, shorts and a neck brace. A neck brace is only required for extreme riding!!! I don't wear elbow pads because I feel that they restrict movement, but, you can wear them if you are not doing extreme manoeuvres. "-Wear your protection and go like hell-", said Travis Pastrana at X-Games 17, in which he crashed attempting a backflip 360. Travis is a dirt biker, just so you know. He is not a mountain biker. What Travis said is right, do anything, but, have the right protection on. Have fun riding safely!!! Below are pictures of Travis's crash; a crash that could have been way worse if he did not have protection. Good luck healing Travis!
