Forget golf, I don't have time for that.
I am using the bike a bit more. The whole family is.
My ride is a Gary Fisher Hoo Koo E Koo that I picked up (used) last year. Replaced the chain, but otherwise the bike is mint. Genesis frame hardtail, Manitou Magnum front suspension, Shimano Deore LX components. Thing is light as a feather. Only thing it doesn't have that I'd like is disc brakes, but I can always upgrade or look for those in my next bike. For now what I have suits me just fine. A lot of riding in the neighborhood with the kids, and a guy down the street has a dirt bike course set up on his property that he doesn't kick me off of. Lots of banked turns, jumps, ruts and a few hills. Haven't hit a lot of singletrack yet, but there are a couple of good areas by us that my brother and I will hit soon. There is a well known buffer zone around Stewart Airport, as well as some good trails in the Mohonk area.
My daughter just graduated to a mountain bike and I picked her up a Trek MT 220. She's loving it.
So what are you riding?
