Short Track

[rdogwoof]

I was just wanting a clear definition of exactly what is short track and how it is different from XC.

Also some tips to approaching a short track race (strategy and training) would be helpful as well.

Mountain Bike Short Track race - a mountain bike competition similar to a criterium where riders do multiple laps on a short 3-5 min dirt course for 20-25 mins.

trying to speed up XC racing.

I say mix in a pump track with some tables and it is on...mass start it

How do you prep for it? intervals and cornering with out braking

The only way to train for it is to just do the races.

Absolute all out suffering maximus. Heinous bloody taste, loogie hack up for days on end suffering.

Cross train in the winter with nordic skiing. Preferably skate.
