Mountain Bike Mania

Mountain Bike Mania by Matt Christopher is about a boy named Will who loves to watch TV. Will loves to eat candy-covered popcorn while he waits for his mom to get home. When Will goes to school, he gets bullied a lot. Then Will discovers a mountain biking club. Then Will asks his mom for a new mountain bike. I liked the book because I have a mountain bike at home. There was a lot of biking action. I would recommend this book because it was interesting.

Pretty Cool!

I thought that Mountain Bike Mania was a pretty cool book.I really like to ride Mounatin bikes and I felt as though I was the one riding the bike in the story. You really felt like you were in the middle of the action. I like the way Matt Christopher writes and would like to read another one of his books. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes to ride mountain or dirt bikes.

A Winner

This book is about a kid (Will Mathews) who is very lousy and in't good at any sports. But one day he goes hiking only to see three mountain bikers that are having a blast. After Will saw them he jouined the club that they were in and soon was having as much fun as the people they saw. Unfortunatly his friend hates to mountain bike and that startes a whole mess that no one knows if it will be over. This book was so good that I read on my own.(I don't like to read that much) If you are looking for a good book and love sports (speceialy mountain biking) then I strongly, absolutly recomend this book to all yong sports lovers for this is the book for YOU! Although the book is not fully about mountain biking(I do wish that it had) it was still a great book. Of course their are probably better books out their that have your name on them and some of them might be one of Matt Christerphor (the aothore)
