The bent trikes look fun
I started MTBing for the same reason. Jogging started to hurt, and I just got fat. Got a FS bike and thought I would just ride fire roads, but after a few singletrack rides I was hooked. Lost 30 lbs in 3-4 months. 10 have mysteriously reattached to me (12 oz at a time most likely). I actually lost too much a first – sister said I had that concentration camp look. Now I stay around 175-180 which works for me. Cool trails in SE Ten.? Are your trails on Forest Service land or other?I ride mostly down at Ocoee, Chilhowee, tanasi, and brush creek.
Just went out for my first night ride a chilhowee tonight with the folks fron Scotts bike shop in cleveland. It was a blast. Thanks to dave and doug for the fun night ride. I’ll be there again.I’ve been Mountain biking now for about a month in Southe East Tennessee. I’m hooked. I have been road biking in the mountains since july 4th and between the two i’ve lost 45 LBS. Lost 5 just clinbing Clemmer trail in Chilhowee last week. Thought i was gonna die but i made it.
So far my favorite trail is Brush creek. I bought an entry level hard tail but so far it has been a great bike. Jamis XC 2.0 Hopefully it won’t be long and i will be moving up to a full suspension bike. if i an ever afford it.
I would like to meet some people to go riding with. [email protected]Come the south east Tennessee and ride chilhowee. The climb up Clemmer will kick your butt but the 5 mile down hill is awesome.
