Have you ever biked? You should because it is fun and worth your time. Biking is fun because you can be outside and have fun simultaneously. If you are truly in love with it, you could join a team. And if you are thinking of joining a team, you should join Team Coyote.

Team Coyote is a local bike team in Emporia. It is part of a league called NICA (National Interscholastic Cycling Association). You go to races and practice, and you learn how to take off a tire and all the important things you need to know. After that, you ride at practice and have fun.

Also, biking helps with health and making good decisions.  It is very active and can require a lot of skill and sense. You need to know which path and routes you are going on and how to choose your line correctly or it can go very wrong. One cool thing you can do with bikes is do cool tricks. You can hit jumps and pop wheelies. Although you need to know that you could get a pinch flat or a broken bike in the end.

With biking you’re going to need a bike. The main types of bikes for MTB are cross-country mountain bikes, hardtails, and Full-suspension bikes, although country bikes go under hardtails. I have a cross-country bike. You don’t need the nicest bike; a 500 or 400-dollar bike can also get the job done.

If you wanted to do any of these things, you could join Team Coyote. It might be the perfect thing for you if you want to do jumps or races or maybe just get an excuse to get a bike. But if you were interested in any of these, you should join Team Coyote or just get into MTB.
