Nothing beats going on some killer trails and having a blast.

Hopefully, one day I'll be able to ride without almost puking!

i could never get into MB, where do you put your smokes, lighter, and a 126oz super jumbo mug of mt dew? then that whole pedaling part, how are you supposed to eat the 3/4 pound 4 stack bacon cheese burger and dip the grease soaked frys in ranch dressing...uphills and corners must really be a PITA.

Smokes. lighter and Dew go on the helmet with the drink tube!

Cheeseburger and Fries? That's what a front basket is for!

All though I do not have a car yet I am in the process. I love this site if I only had a 100k laying around I would fit right in. In the mean time I do dabble in the MTB seen. Here is a pic from this passed weekend. I do pedal also but its not near as fun as taking the chair lift up and bombing down... Love the site keep the pictures coming. My pic was to big will have to get another.

Jon,

MTB is one of the best hobbies / sports there is. I've never stopped riding and get cranky when i miss a ride. I've finally started upgrading my old Moot's Titanium frame.

Wife bought me a new Rock Shok Sid 'Race" shock.

I've just bought a new set of Mavic Cross Ride wheels my last set of Cross Max ceramics lasted over 10,000 mles. The are still good but i can't get a new free wheel for the back wheel so I bought another set.

Also just ordered new Race Face Cranks, SRAM XO 9 speed components.

PS - the Moots frame is considered a soft tail as there is no pivot point but it actually has 1 1/2" of travel to comfort you ars when your riding the cross country trails.
