Bike injury lawyer Doug Landau uses his off road bike for commuting to work in good weather, pulling buggers, &#8220;trail-a-bikes&#8221; and touring in the off season.  Mrs. Landau likes her mountain bike for training rides as it enables her to sit upright, without the strain on her lumbar spine, and to be able to see further down the road.  The Landau&#8217;s mountain bikes are also less likely to get flats, are easier to adjust to other riders, and can carry heavy panniers and gear.  Other bikers like the safety and stability of a mountain bike.  The <a title=\"landau injury law\" href=\"https:\/\/www.landauinjurylaw.com\" target=\"_blank\">Abrams Landau<\/a> bike crash lawyer also likes the &#8220;Granny Gear&#8221; when ascending steep inclines in Loudoun County.  There are several Reston and Herndon area cyclists who ride with the Reston Bike Club on hybrid and mountain bikes, and they keep up, traverse rough road and even hop the curb now and then !  Landau puts his Speedplay peddles on his off road bike so that he can use his biking shoes to keep up and has the bell for safety on his handlebars when approaching cyclists, runners and other recreational users of the W&amp;OD and other Northern Virginia Trails, bike paths and roads.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Owning a mountain bike does not mean you have to go tearing down mountains, slaloming between trees, jumping roots and avoiding protruding rocks.
