Whether you're planning a trip or thumbing for facts in the field, Basic Essentials books tell you what you need to know. Discover how to choose and maintain a mountain bike, brake, turn, skid, hop, and balance, prepare for a long ride, overcome obstacles such as rocks, logs, and water and compete in cross-country races and observed trials.
