Get the MTB mug.

To bring along his or hers bicycle far beyond what appears optimal in terms of the combination of energy conservation, time and injury avoidance while HittaUt. It is called MTB-fällan because participants with an MTB or a bicycle similar to an MTB appears to be more prone to fall into this behaviour compared to users with a more traditional bicycle.
The factors contributing to this behaviour are not yet properly understood, despite billions of kronor being spent on researching the topic annually.
Stig, a professor at both the TSP (TravellingSalesmanProblem) and Forest Psychology (and also an enthusiastic postage stamp collector), has hypothesized that the behaviour emerges from a combination of factors. He said:
Some people have too high expectations of their bicycle's off-road capabilities. Also one may easily over-estimate how fast you really go while bringing the bike along outside established paths while at the same time underestimating the speed had you walked or run. It is also easy to underestimate how quickly you get fatigued from cycling in pure forest. Lastly, some may feel like it's a sign of bad planning if you are forced to backtrack in the exact same route as you approached one or more checkpoints, but that is obviously not necessarily the case!" said Stig and couldn't help from laughing.
It was about at that point we stopped listening to Stig.

A: It was so tough to carry my bicycle up to that large hill to collect those 8 checkpoints.
B: LOL n00b. You totally went into mtb-fällan. I took them by foot in under an hour. You should have parked the bicycle and taken them by foot. What were you thinking about?
A: My MTB that I really want to utilize at all costs, especially when it makes no sense.
C: After only 30 meters into the forest I realized I was about to go into mtb-fällan, so I locked my bicycle and went on by foot. That saved me a lot of energy, frustration and time.
D: I broke my bicycle and nearly also my arm when I fell off the cliff close to checkpoint 62 when I lost control of my bicycle. Now I know why people warned me about MTB-fällan.
