How to Ride Off a Drop on a Mountain Bike

You are buzzing down a sweet single-track with a few of your best pals. As you burst out of a corner, you are faced with a ladder drop. The rider in front of you confidently rides off it and gracefully drops through the air then sticks a buttery-smooth landing.

Safely riding off a drop - ladder or natural - is a mountain-biking skill that will instantly open up new lines and allow you to have more fun than ever on your bike. With a bit of knowledge and some practice, you will be the one filling the new riders with envy as you gracefully and confidently ride off the drops.

How to Get Rid of Moss in Your Lawn

Moss consists of tiny plants that form a habitat for small invertebrates. Most mosses are native and benign, part of a natural succession of vegetation. They cover bare ground and prevent soil erosion. Moss does not kill your grass, but it can creep into your lawn if your grass has already started dying.

In recent years home owners and gardeners have become more interested in encouraging moss because of its beauty and as part of an effort to minimize use of chemicals around the home. A perfect lawn could include some moss, and the world would not come to an end! But if you can't stand the sight of moss in the lawn, then read on.
