Come prepared: When you arrive at a race, your bike should be in race-ready condition.
Chain Management: Chain damage is still the number one problem with mountain bikes. Keeping your chain clean and well-oiled will help, as will frequent chain replacement. Periodic inspection of your chain for wear, stretch and damage may save you a long walk home.
Packing Tape: This can be used for rims trips, boots for fractured tires and a dozen more makeshift repairs. If you've flown to the race, it also saves you from having to borrow tape to close up your bike box for the flight home. Other musts: safety pins and plastic zip ties.
Pre-race: Visual inspections before any serious off-road ride, carefully examine the area where the tire hooks onto the rim and remove any foreign objects which could cause premature（比預期早的）tire wear.
Tire Pressure: Check tire pressure before race start. The recommended pressure is noted on the tire sidewall, usually 40 lbs., many racers run 50 lbs., or more for less rolling resistance.
Be Self-Contained: Make sure you are self-contained. Bring your own drinking water, food and first aid kit. Also have tools, spare parts, tubes, quick fills and a chain tool. Never suppose you can just borrow these items from a friend.
Post-race Visual Inspections: Inspect your bike after completing each event, especially before competing in a downhill event. Re-inspect before packing your bike for the trip home.

Students had to wear the aquatic shoes and make it across the lake in order to earn an '6A" on the assignment for Architecture Professor Jaime Canaves, Materials and Methods Construction Class.

      World' s Amazing Festivals El Colacho: The Baby-Jumping Festival
     In this festival, grown men jump over newborns, with their parents' permission. Wearing
scary costumes, the Spanish men attempt to "clean" babies of evil. The town has observed
the strange practice since 1620, and any onlookers (旁觀者) who seem to be in need of a
quick exorcism(~) are pulled into the event, as well.
     Hadakamatsuri : The Naked (裸露的) Festival
     This is a Japanese festival where participants wear little clothing. Naked Festivals are
held in dozens of places throughout Japan every year, usually in summer or winter. Hidden
somewhere in these men is one fully naked man. Touching him is believed to bring good luck.
     The Monkey Buffet (自助餐) Festival
     Every year, about 600 monkeys are invited to eat fruits and vegetables during an annual
feast in Thailand. It is held in honour Rama, the greatest of the gods. It is said that Rama
once rewarded his friend Hanuman, the Monkey King, with some land. Organizers of the
annual Monkey Bullet use more than 3,000kg of fruits and vegetables to prepare for the
festival.
     The Cheese Rolling Festival
     This event is held in England. Though it might sound very gentle, cheese-rolling is
actually very dangerous. Running down a very steep hill behind a 7-pound wheel of cheese
can be very dangerous. In fact, the police have attempted to ban the event, but participants
have refused to carry out the ban. Men and their cheese wheels cannot be separated so
easily. So what happens during a cheese roll? Simple: The cheese is set rolling down the hill,
and the racers run down the hill after the cheese. However, as the cheese can reach speeds
of up to 70 miles per hour, it rarely happens that someone catches the cheese. The first to
reach the bottom wins the cheese.
