In 1997 extensive research was done with regards carrying or pushing your mtb. Taking into consideration the run-in angle, the gradient, the tortuosity of the trail, tyre tread type and bicycle weight - you either push or carry depending on which FEELS like less effort.

If I get off during the mtb Argus because all the roadie race snake types are walking because of a technical section, I push.

 

If I get off during Attakwas because it feels like I'm mountaineering and not mountainbiking, I carry.

 

If the obstacles are too big to comfortably roll my front wheel over them, its better to carry.

 

Technique I use most often is to tuck my shoulder underneath the point of the saddle and use my left hand to stablise the weight. I then have my right hand free to drink or eat something. If I really need to climb mountains, I have the double grip and bike on my back.

 

There is also good technique when pushing a bike. So often I see riders bent down pushing the bike forward by gripping both sides of the handle bar. It is far better to have one hand on the saddle and the other on the handlebar grip. You are more upright and can therefor stride easier and breath better. It also helps to see where you are going to pick the best walking line and relieves stress on your back and shoulders.

 

Alternating sides when you get tired also helps.

 

Getting some cross training in makes hike-a-bike sections faster and easier too.

hahaha...I push at 7km/h!

That's where I gain the most positions...

That doesn't make sense. In 1997, mtbing wasn't populated by a bunch of pseudo roadie pussies. All mtber's rode up everything in the 90's.

But surely nobody dismounts at the Attakwas.

Running in cycling shoes, haibo !

 

Would be cool to have a shoe with a switch that disengages the sole to make it bendable when you need to walk/run/climb
