I see 2 categories involving bicycles:
1. Cycling - Hill Climb, criterium, time trial, road race
2. Biking - hill climb, down hill, cross country
Is there a difference? If so, please explain it to us. I thought they were one and the same.
Could it be that the brochure used the different names to express the level of stress and effort
required to ride in those two events? "Cycling" as discribed is for the
racer boys and "Biking" is
for the
average riders. But what do I know?
