Newbie Q's

Hey guys, I've got a few short questions as I'm curious about this sport.

I bought a mountain bike a few days ago for the purpose of mainly exercising, but I can say I had a blast going through one of the bush tracks here and would like to know more about mountain biking.

No idea about brands, size etc. but I went to target and bought a Cyclops Ridge bike, 60cm. I'm 5'6 so I'm pretty short, but is there any difference between wheel size in terms of technical performance or other attributes? Thoughts on the bike?

Also, odd question but what is this sport called? More an extreme sport is it?
