I used to ride bmx, but I’ve been leaning towards going out and getting a mountain bike for quite some time now. that looks like alot of fun. I need to get back into riding. would be nice to go out and half some fun and lose some pounds while im at it ---

I ride a ton in the summer. It’s a great workout and is a lot of fun. I probably won’t do a lot of mountain bike riding this summer though, my kid likes his dirt bike to much so we will be riding dirtbikes instead of mountain bikes. ---

snowmobiles seem like a huge waste in pittsburgh. It snows enough to ride then once every 10 or so years. It may be cool to have one if you lived in Siberia. ---

Awesome vids… thats what i’m talking about! Hopefully my big bike will be ready soon! I was just at Ray’s 2 weekends ago (10th-11th). Had a blast, first time there! only one spill, but considering i was on my Hifi (XC squisher), i dont think it was too bad. There should be pics soon… ---

I have a 2004 Schwinn Mesa GSD 24 speed hardtail, disc brakes, etc. Identical to this but no bar ends, and tires with real small tread blocks (better for the park, the big knobby ones have no advantage there) a WTB Nanoraptor on the front and a Specialized S-Works factory tire on the back. ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v426/TheOneStar00/Schwinn.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v426/TheOneStar00/Schwinn.jpg) Nick rides some kind of single speed dirt jumping hardtail bike. ---
