Mountain Biking

Mountain biking is a great leisure activity to do to lose weight.  I don’t mountain bike but I BMX at the skatepark. Mountain biking is basically not like road biking.  You have to do it on dirt paths but you have to watch out for other bikers because you don’t know if they’re in front of you.  Also, you get so dirty and you will need some gear to protect you from getting hurt always. You must wear knee pads, back armor, like dirt bike armour jackets that have elbow pads and a spine pad.  You also need a helmet so you don’t break your skull. The best place to mountain bike is in the mountains. If you can’t get to the mountains, then there are paths in the river valley.


My dad had a mountain bike.  He got hurt because he was in the woods getting hit by trees and got bruised all over the place.  Good thing that wasn’t me though or else I would’ve died. For my entire life I would be in the hospital right now.

Have you ever ridden a mountain bike before?  I have but I crashed into a tree and dented the front fender.  It was literally broken so it looked like a thing that had no fender in the front.  It was so weird because I had to cut it off but then I installed it back on with the toughest duct tape and put it on.  The next day I couldn’t kick start it for a day so my dad helped me. I couldn’t kick start it because I’m very weak. My brother and dad even says that because I was the last one born.

What do you think about dirt-biking?  Would you be brave enough to try this activity?  Describe one activity where you injured yourself and whether you continued doing it after your injury.

Sports & Exercise

I really like all kinds of sports.  I enjoy watching and playing all types of sports.  

My favourite sports soccer and tennis.  The reason I participate in these activities is it makes me healthy by making me move and getting my heart and blood pumping.  I try to play soccer at least twice a week, especially during morning and lunch recesses. For tennis, it is more difficult to play because you need to use a tennis court and we don’t have one at school.  Also, it requires a tennis racket and a tennis ball but soccer only needs a ball.

Exercise can get you healthy and prevents disease.  My father does not exercise a lot and his back hurts if he bends over.  I think this happens because he does not exercise anymore. He used to exercise a lot with me but now he only exercises three times a month.  I think exercise is very important and I think most students exercise a lot.

What are your favourite sports that you enjoy doing or watching?  What do you think about exercising and sports?
