Mountain Biking Safety Tips 5 : Slow down around blind corners, if you can't see past a corner you should always slow down, as you never know who or what is around it.

Mountain Biking Safety Tips 6 : Start small then go big, work your way up to stunts or obstacles.  Practice in less difficult or dangerous situations before you  move up to something more dangerous.

Mountain Biking Safety Tips 7 : Playing it smart, if you start to question what your doing, you probably shouldn't be doing.  Always think about what you are  doing and go with your instincts.
