    All depends on what type of riding and how much you looking to spend? It's another crazy rabbit hole so just be prepared to spend way more then planned :eek:

    Try Pinkbike and you might get lucky with something local. If you plan on riding for awhile I'd suggest putting up a bit more cash up front to get something you'll enjoy and be able to really ride...

    Don't know if the holes bother me enough to spend money and time on them. I usually just say it adds character and call it good
