Riding my bike as a sport?

Question

are there ways to ride your bike as a sport other than racing? if so what and where can i get info?

Answer 1

just biking around town or through trails and jump + grinding at skate parks

Answer 2

you can ride at the skatepark. or do flatland things. like... iono. two points right here.

Answer 3

You sure can, check with a local bike shop or club and ask then as they will know what is in your area. You are likely to find every thing from racing to family rides. You could also do a quick search by entering your town or a near by city  and "bike rides" (city,state  bike rides), this should get you a few good places to look.

Answer 4

there is trick bike racing, like he said there are also organized rides in pretty much any location where there is a large population. there is a weird sport called cyclo-cross, where people ride on a cross country course and have to dismount through mud and stuff, but that sounds like a crazy thing to do. finally, there are triathalons.
