Hi, I am ______, professional mountain biker. Today, I am going to share with you one of the most efficient ways to climb a hill. Now that I am approaching the hill, I am going to make sure that I am in the correct gear, so I am not in too easy of a gear or too hard of a gear and lose power. I am going to look ahead and sight my line and at this moment, I realize that the left is going to be the best line. I am going to make sure that my upper body is relaxed. I am balanced on my bike and I am pulling back on the bars and not up so that my front wheel does not do a wheelie and I am keeping my butt down so that my rear tire is not losing traction. You want to make sure as you are climbing, to look up and sight where you are going, pick out your line and do not worry about the rocks if they lose, you can get through it. Use that front suspension for what it is worth and have fun. That is how you climb a hill. This wiki bike tip is brought to you by Ellsworth Bikes. Like no other bike on earth.
