i used to mountain bike in the sandblaster series as a 'kid'. Went bikeing like 2 years ago at Marham park, almost killed myself, damn how the trails changed... went from dirt and shit to all rocks! My face has been ****ed up too many times, not in this time.

There's also Amelia Earhart park by Opaloca for mountain biking.

COOL! well, as a Mountain Biker... i'd be willing to give you guys a complete tour of either park (Oleta or markam) I know both parks like the palm of my hand, being that I compete and have to train 3-4 times a week. (Finished 6th place overall in the State of Florida Coconut Cup)

I race for ACTIVE CYCLES TEAM and could get you all good deals on bikes or equipments. The Bike shop is on Flamingo and sherridan.

My race bike is over $4k but ive been riding for years. (so pls... dont spend money on a bike... rent one to see if you like the sport first) If anyone needs a bike... (if we ever decide to go) I have an extra training bike to loan)

lately ive been at the parks about 4 times a week, (training for a race in NC) Im usually there already; so let me know when we will be doing this!

Edit: BTW if it's your first time MTBking... Oleta River Park is the better choice.

Set it up CO I want to do this! It seems like the genral concensus is that we should go to Oleta because most of us are beginners and will have to rent bikes.
