Cross country rules

One of the first rules of cross Country Biking, or dirt biking for that matter, is never ride alone,

 you should always have someone with you in case something goes wrong. 

Better yet is take take a third person along...

Preferably a person you don't really care for. Because sooner or later your going to come to a spot that may not be "Rider friendly".


Now, who would you rather go first?  You?  Your friend? 

Or that "guy" you brought along..."In case"?
