With earth as my canvas and bike as my brush

  1. I noticed thare wasn't a proper "bicycling" thread around the city.

    Any one who wants to talk about anything mtn, road, BMX, or whatever biking you do; or bike maintaince, or trail pictures, this is the place!

    This is my bike 2000 klein attitude comp. I won't get into the specs unless anyone is interested.

    I'll be updating this with pictures of my trail outings, if anything this can be a self reference log.

    Lookin forward too seeing how many of you blades ride the "modern horse".

  9. Oregon. These trails are called Post Canyon Trails, right in or next to Hood River. It's a crazy awesome system of trails with a fair amount of wooden structures and other playthings all in and around forested areas.




     
  10. That's looks pretty fun, a lot different than the ancient dunes we have to ride on in NW FL. Don't get me wrong though there's still some gnarly lines down here too

  12. I'm about to purchase a trail bike used and just seeing if anybody knows anything about 3 year old 17" orbea bike, looks to be in great shape just waiting for the guy to email me back to go see it. He is asking $500. They seem to be great bike from reading online however I'm new to biking and never heard of them. Any info would be great. Thanks.

  15. Not sure. Not a very good description. It only said 17 sport. It's looks like a full size. He didn't email me back, it might of sold already.
