Prevalence of Injuries in Amateur and Elite Mountain BikersPrimary· At study enrollment, based on participants' self-reported history of mountain bike injuries
In a retrospective questionnaire participants were asked about the "Number of injuries obtained during mountain biking".

Training and Racing VolumeSecondary· At study enrollment, based on participants' retrospective self-report of the number of races per year and estimated training hours per week
In a retrospective questionnaire the participants were asked "How many races per year" they ride and whats their "Estimated training hours per week in regard to the season".
The number of races per year was multiplied by the factor 4 to transform the number of races into training hours. Then, both values were added to get the training volume per year.

Injury Rate Per 1000hrs Exposure TimeSecondary· At study enrollment, based on participants' self-reported history of mountain bike participation
The injury rate per 1000 hours exposure time was calculated as follows: the hours of exposure time per year were multiplied by the number of years practicing mountain biking to get the total hours at risk. Then, the total amount of injuries ever was divided by the total hours at risk, multiplied by 1000 hours to get the injury rate per 1000 hours of exposure time.
