Arch Rivalries

Personal rivalries are essential to the sport of Mountain Biking. The arena is a nursury bed for such shenanigans. There is something satisfying in indulging this primal instinct. For any fan of the sport, I think the interest arises in the rivalries and the way in which personalities are sometimes put on display. I, for one, get excited about a good battle. I like a close race with stiff competition and I like the anticipation that is brewed with an ongoing rivalry.
Most people have their own targets, whatever your ability. It’s probably that guy or girl that is a little faster that doesn’t really know who you are. It’s good to aim high.podium

    That is so true close battles with an arch rival are fun. You never know who will take it and will find something new about yourself if you want it.
