  1. My shins were slightly sore but they are ok today. I downhill mountain
    bike on my rest days. I do a lot of downhill mountain biking because I
    consider it a rest acitivity. I'm careful about uphill mountain biking
    because it takes a lot out of my legs.

    I find that both mountain and road biking give my running legs a rest
    unless the biking is hard.

    Downhill ride - do you take a bus to get to the top? I'm having a hard
    time visualizing this as much more then a test of feathering your
    V-brakes and some balance assuming it's a technical course.

  4. sorest and anger can cause probes.
    like high winds, weather changes bike not working right. traffic riding
    on your nerve finding your week spot and most of all. every one that do
    you wrong well make a mistake inducement on what to do and how to do at
    that time of wrong.
    say your back flairs up and traffic well gun engine on your sole back.
    or were 2 cars pass as you are on a 12 inch pave,meant with a 5 inch
    drop on mud. or water area and mud cars well make sure you are caught in
    it. or plows of said mud roads are done after a long treck and you have
    5 miles of just plow roads that are 6 inch of lose soil right before a
    rain on you and then a 35 m.p.h. head wind hits you. so traffic gets
    heaved being deviated to your ride then and a down pore happens with
    tire track from cars so deep it is almost to your knees cars stuck jeeps
    at full trotted to get thru with 4 wheel on and you got more miles to
    put on with 40 or 50 pounds on your back, and your back sprockets keep
    missing and you can't go up a hill because you snap your chain, or you
    get a flag tire, broken spokes so more spokes break, your tire is
    rubbing your cables are flairs and after you get home you write in here
    ad the world says your no good, your fat, broke and My grandma can ride
    better then you, and the cops said you time is no good, why do you ride
    again. do you take a spin c;lass. it well teach you how to ride faster
    and better. every one is dong it.......

    and then you see crows bus at the place were you try to get hired for 5
    years and they blow you off and sue you for stuff you never do..........
    then I say Ha. it could of been crow bus. but why should I cadre.

    crow you want to hit me with a bus.fine.
    GET IN LINE........
    and watch some free dvd.
    and burn cash house.
    or love lve love.
    in short. hell yes can damage them.
    ever fall off on a ride.
    I am good.
    evil is what evil is.
    spok
    you might have drew out me lungs.
    butt I am not there yet/
    a house on the lake.
    boobie,,,,,

    What is your idea of downhill biking??
    If you have sore shins and you are serious about your training, I
    would have to say get off the pavement and onto some trails. I would
    also suggest thorough stretching after you run. It is amazing what
    that alone will do for you. Personally I don't see how one gets shin
    splints from running 6kms a day. Usually if you have shin splints
    your saying, "I could barely walk today." Not my shins were slightly
    sore.

    I dont stretch after runs but I do walk a couple kilometers. from the
    past, i know that that the pain multiplies fast if you dont take time
    off.

    No pain multiplies fast if you don't take care of your body. Believe
    it or not stretching is vital for running, I don't care what anyone
    tells you. Also your diet and water intake are also very important.
    All I can say is if you don't take care of your body you will just end
    up injuring yourself.

    Ski areas in summer. Take gondola up, bike ride down. The serious ones
    use special bikes. Then there's those ....
