“Relaxed� is the new “Slow�

A new term should be added to the Mountain Biking SLANG Dictionary.

American Heritage Dictionary – Cite This Source re·lax (rÄ­-lÄÂ?ks’) Pronunciation Key
v. re·laxed, re·lax·ing, re·lax·es
–adjective

“To reduce in intensity; slacken: relax one’s efforts.�

Used in a sentence:
I normally ride with a group of guys that are very goal oriented. We jam to our destination. Talk for a bit along the way and then jam back to the cars. It’s more competitive than laid back. I like to push it hard sometimes, but other times it’s nice to “relax� and enjoy the ride.

We’d like to thank Elijah for helping grow the mountain biking vocabulary.
