Whenever I mention rough-stuff to a non cyclist - and I expect most readers have had the same experience - it is almost guaranteed that the response will be. “Oh. you ride a mountain bike then, do you?" The public has been so conditioned to the idea that off-road cycling equals mountain bikes that, for instance, the Countryside Com mission will not accept riders on other types of machine for its organised rides on the Ridgeway path. But surely, as the singer might have put it. "It ain't what you ride, it’s the way that you ride it"
