Mountain bike racing has begun to explode with new technology soaring to new heights. With new technology, we push our bodies further as well.
Courses continue to become more difficult as the bikes become stronger and more reliable.
At every race I see racers with newer, stronger, beefier equipment. Racers buy the equipment, and expect to go faster. The problem is your body. They are the ones training far before the season starts. They don't rely on the latest equipment, they rely on their bodies.
