Any mountain bikers??

The city has three 16 weeks summer projects every year working to expand and do the maintenance. And there's also a good bunch of volunteers. It's really nice, I didn't use it much this summer which is sad.

What part of town are you in? There are some decent trails on Mount Royal, no? You should take a bus or hook up with some folks going to Bromont some day. Serious fun to be had. Rent a DH bike and get yer ya yas out! :D

That was an awesome video of Edmundston. Looks a lot of fun to ride.

Awesome bike and scenery as always Mark Reccord.

Still looking for a bike but gonna be testing one out tomorrow.

Happy labor day weekend for everyone!

Thanks!

Couple of pics from today's ride. Perfect conditions. ~65 degrees, not a cloud in the sky, trails still a bit tacky from rain on friday.

For perspective on how steep this is:

Love this trail system. Relentless tech, always gotta be on your toes.

Nothing worth to be called "trail"

I ride allright , but I think it's cool to have those in your back door without having to 'get there' first.
And for Bromont , most of the fun for me is to get it up there, on top of the mountain , no DH bike for me!
I must have Goat in my family somewhere .....

Kick-A(@Mark :cool: ).
SLOWLY getting closer to my dream bike(carbon On-one 456 SS)- made a feeble attempt at a CL ad for my Enduro- [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] - not sure I did it right, didn't print out my emaill... do I do that? I have done this before but it's been a LOOONG time.

SOOOOO- got a seemingly legit potential buyer for my Enduro- he's trying to work me down from my asking price of $1500. SAID some shop in Redwood City was blowing 11's out for 16(they seem to be all gone now)... thoughts? I am pretty well ready to cut losses and dump this thing before it's a *vintage piece* but I don't want to give it away.

Edit: MFer just offered me $1000. Really? :atoz:

Yeah that's pretty much a lowball offer IMO, but at the same time I have say people don't want to pay what a bike is worth. I've seen a lot of bikes like yours disappear for 1100-1200 bucks. I hit a guy up for one that was posted for 1200, but it was sold.

Someone will get a good bike for 1200 bassteban....problem is not alot of folks looking. when you get into XL realm it gets worse..........I'd give ebay a try........probably cost you $100 to ship it..........I sold my SJ frame only for $375 and it was practically new.........but it was an XXL ..... course I'm loving my 23" Turner RFX.......fun as hell!
