    Any mountain bikers out there? I just got a new bike and I love trail riding, down hill and jumps. I got a Iron Horse Worrior4.0.

    It's been awhile since I have been out but when I do it's on a Marin Indian Fire Trail I lean towards single track and lots downhill stuff.

    I have a some KHS model. All i do is eat shit when i hit up the trails. So i stick to the pavement and urban stuff. I thought my dirtbike skills would cross over, guess not.

    I've been riding since summer of 2003 when I lived in Southern Cal.

    I got hooked on the DH trails in Big Bear, CA until they shut them down in 2005. Now I just focus on XC to keep my cardio up.

    My old bike was a 2004 Santa Cruz VP-Free and sold it when the DH trails closed. Now I ride a Kona Kikapu here in Tempe, AZ. But right now it's f*****g hot to ride and don't really wake up in time to ride in the morning, so I'll just wait until this fall.

    Happy trails!

    I ride single track and downhill on a Mountain Cycle Sin I built last year.

    I need to better my downhill skills though. Damn near destroyed myself Saturday. Tried a trail that was too much for me and landed on my head hard. My neck's still sore.
