Aura Basikal Tua
As'salam
Pernahkah anda disapa, diusik atau ditegur oleh orang awam sewaktu anda mengayuh sepeda klasik anda? Bersiar-siar di kawasan perumahan, taman-taman, pekan, desa, kebun atau walau di mana jua sekali pun kebarangkalian anda untuk menarik perhatian orang terhadap basikal anda adalah bagaikan magnet menarik besi-besinya. Itulah yang teman ingin kongsikan pada ruangan ini tentang pengalaman yang unik bilamana teman bersiar-siar bersama basikal tua lalu disapa oleh orang awam. Pelbagai jenis ragam soalan dan komentar yang ditujukan kepada teman.
Berdasarkan pengalaman teman, kebanyakkan orang awam selalu bertanyakan "dari mana dapat basikal ni bang?" dituruti dengan soalan "berapa harga basikal ni bang?". Dari segi komentar pula rata-rata mereka komen "susah nak cari basikal ni" dan mereka yang telah berusia sering mengatakan "teringat pakcik zaman muda-muda dulu". Dalam banyak-banyak pengalaman semua ni ada dua reaksi yang boleh dikategorikan agak berani berlaku iaitu ada yang mohon izin untuk tangkap gambar bersama basikal dan ada pula yang mohon menunggang untuk merasai kayuhannya. Macam-macam kerenah dan reaksi manusia apabila berdepan dengan basikal tua. Maka inilah salah satu keistimewaan basikal tua yang mempunyai auranya tersendiri.
Tarikannya bagaikan memandu sebuah kereta ferrari. Wallahu'alam.

What is mountain biking
Mountain biking is a sport which consists of riding bicycles off-road, often over rough terrain, using specially adapted mountain bikes. Mountain bikes share similarities with other bikes, but incorporate features designed to enhance durability and performance in rough terrain.
Mountain biking can generally be broken down into multiple categories: cross country, trail riding, all mountain, downhill, freeride, street riding, dirt jumping and trials. The vast majority of mountain biking falls into the recreational XC, and Trail Riding categories.
This individual sport requires endurance, core strength and balance, bike handling skills, and self-reliance. XC type mountain biking generally requires a smaller range of skills but a higher level of fitness than other types of mountain biking. Advanced riders pursue steep technical descents and, in the case of freeriding, downhilling, and dirt jumping, aerial maneuvers off of specially constructed jumps and ramps.
Mountain biking can be performed almost anywhere from a back yard to a gravel road, but the majority of mountain bikers ride off-road trails, whether country back roads, fire roads, or singletrack (narrow trails that wind through forests, mountains, deserts, or fields). 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 learn to repair their broken bikes or flat tires to avoid being stranded miles from help. Many riders will carry a backpack, including a water bladder, containing all the essential tools and equipment for trailside repairs, and many riders also carry emergency supplies in the case of injury miles from outside 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 treks. A combination sport named mountain bike orienteering adds the skill of map navigation to mountain biking.

Prelude : Intro
Plainly the given name for this blog is ORBYTE which represent "Outrider Bicycle Team". Nothing exceptional, simply just fancy the way you verbalize it. Since I'm dwelling in south lembah klang, most of the journey saga will be around Subang Jaya, Putra Perdana and right the way through Taman Melawati.
So stay tune and hold tight. Ceritera tentang seorang beginner rider akan menyusul tidak lama lagi.
