The sport requires endurance, bike handling skills and self-reliance. It is an individual sport which can be performed almost anywhere.
There are aspects of mountain biking that are more similar to trail running than regular bicycling. Because riders are often far from civilization, there is a strong ethic of self-reliance in the sport. Riders must learn to repair their broken bikes or flat tires to avoid being stranded miles from help.
This reliance on survival skills accounts for the group dynamics of the sport. Club rides and other forms of group rides are common, especially on longer routes.
