Another idiot mountain biker!

Another familiar story. Here is a man 65 years of age trying
to be a teenager. Mountain biking puts stress on various body organs because
trying to negotiate a trail on a bike is stressful no matter your age. But
Blackblade thinks mountain biking is good for one's health. Is being dead good
for one's health? This man might have lived for another 20 years if he had not
thought that mountain biking was a good thing to be doing. The last time I
looked there were plenty of roads in Oregon for cyclists to ride. He should have
stuck to roads, where the only danger is being hit by a motor
vehicle.

Spectacular own goal there Ed :-))))

You do know, I take it, that last year 14 cyclists died in London alone due to being hit by motor vehicles ? Cycling on the road is orders of magnitude more dangerous than mountainbiking.

Mountainbiking is, despite your claims to the contrary, good for you and pretty safe. The hiking report from the lake district included 3 hiking fatalities you might recall - and you're happy to conclude that this is 'safe' just because it suits your argument. So, same question back to you ... is it safe if people end up dead ?
