I was just wondering if there were any other avid mountain bikers around this forum :) I've always loved it, but as of the last couple weeks, I've become a real addict :twisted:

Here's some pics from today at Sundance Resort East of Provo, Utah...

And some from last week up Payson Canyon

Used to be...raced in VT for a few years, had a great time, then switched to predominantly road when I moved here to this flat island but did some MTB on the side, especially the VT50 miler which is an incredible race. Then I had a couple of kids..............

That's a sweet bike! I just went with a Specialized RockHopper, just because I need a hardtail for climbing, but I've been looking into getting another bike strictly for downhill :BANANA:

i've heard a lot of people use hardtails for downhill. i'm just learning about the whole mountain bike scene. i found that cannon on craigslist for a killer deal so i couldn't pass it up!!! brought it home and changed the main bearing, shifter cables, rear shock bushings, peddles, and tuned the de-railers now she rides like brand new!. I've gotten my friends into it as well.. one just bought a trek 3500 and the other bought a trek 4300. both outstanding bikes.
