hey bikers .. I started a poll to see if anyone wants to have a central park meet and ride. Im about to start biking on weekends again to do some extra cardio since the weather isnt so brutal yet. Who's still biking?

Sweet! Its a shame I dont have a road bike yet. If this Central Park thing happens I will try and keep up with my 2.0" slicks and heavy a$$ full suspension.

this is a little on the long side but here's a video of the place we go riding that was shot by my friend. Riding starts at 1:20 I believe. I'm heading up this Sunday to do a little digging and a slew of riding.

Jelous! I would join as I miss the good old days of dh and trail but no bike to do it with. Looks like a pretty legit spot.

Well go borrow/steal a bike and come.


It's not the biggest place, maybe 10 or so trails down the hill and the jump park, but it is a legit, old school, freeriders dream.

little bump for this thread. Hope everyone has gotten some riding in, or at least some spinning inside. I've been bad over christmas but look forward to getting some time in at the gym once classes start again. Also picked up a frame for a good price and am slowly piecing together a bike!
