Which of the following should riders practice before heading on the trails?

  1. Riding without gear

  2. Using a map and compass

  3. Ignoring weather conditions

  4. Speed racing

The correct answer is: Using a map and compass

Using a map and compass is essential for ensuring safety and navigation while riding on trails. Familiarizing oneself with these tools enables riders to understand their surroundings, identify trails, and make informed decisions about their route. This practice can help in preventing riders from getting lost, especially in remote or unfamiliar areas where trails may not be well marked. Additionally, being competent in map and compass skills can enhance a rider's overall experience, allowing them to explore new areas with confidence while also preparing for any unexpected detours. Practical knowledge of navigation aids is fundamental for responsible trail riding, especially since not all trails may be equipped with directional signage or GPS coverage.
