mountain biker
Off-road pedaler
A mountain biker is someone who rides a bicycle on rough terrain—trails, dirt paths, hills, and mountains rather than paved roads.
The term covers both casual weekend riders and competitive athletes: Mountain bikers gathered at the trailhead before dawn.
The activity emphasizes technical skill, endurance, and specialized equipment with knobby tires and suspension systems.
