There is obviously some risk pertaining to injuries and thus a mountain bike should not be bought without a helmet. The 'brain bucket' is essential as they say. Te following skills if learnt well will take your mountain biking career beyond the nervous starting points. Start with your own backyard or a park. Of course if you collapse on grass it is easier to handle than a fall on the pavement.
