likn, where exactly is it at???
Yay!!! A topic I can truly help with…..you see I was the wife that the husband was trying to get into MTBiking!!!!;) Devin and Tumbleweed gave the best insight….you go guys!!! 😛 The main thing you all need to remember is we REALLY do want to be apart of what is sooo special to you! MTBiking is just no easy feat…it’s scary for us…we want to be there with you but we also don’t want to embarass you either…..PATIENCE is the key! My husband, THANK GOD, was soooo patient….if he wasn’t I wouldn’t of stuck with it. Just remember what it was like when you were a NOOB and add that to the fact that most of the people you run into out there are dudes….I am always sooo stoked when I see another chic out there! You just have to keep her out there on the bike and one day she will not fall, she will glide over that root system, she will make that climb, she will go over that bridge, etc… and then boys- she will be HOOKED! 😆
Hi all, loving this thread!!! So it’s just my hubby and I, we have no kids but a very demanding cat and dog 😆 My husband and my brother-n-law got me into mtbiking about two years ago…..it has been a journey. I have never been an overly active person. I have always been scrawny. I have changed so much as I have within the past years……I HAVE muscles<—-first time EVER!!! 😃 I have never worked so hard, or hurt so bad! I truly LOVE this sport and this is important coming from a girl that 2 1/2 years ago the most important decision she made concerning fitness was if she wore sneakers would it ruin her pedi! I am now officially a BIKING chic!!! I love riding…..I also had an old starter bike at first until my hubby saw I was gonna stick with it (good idea) and now have a HARO flightline (hard tail) that I LOVE!!!!! I loved mtbiking so much the only prob was wet trails so my bro-n-law hooked me up with and old BCA hybrid bike and now I ride on the road when the trails are wet just so I can get in a ride! I love the new STRONG person I am, I love the feeling of bliss you get when it’s you and the trail, I love the high you get after that looooong climb. I LOVE it all!!!!! 😆 😆 😆 I’m hooked!
I started road riding so I wouldn’t have to give up a ride because of a wet trail 😢 I really enjoy it….I have gained so much strength from the sustained climbs in road biking that it has made me soooo much better on the mtb trail! 😆 Mountain Biking is still my fave tho!!! 😃
SOooo….hubby and I rode Bartram on Saturday with Spring Lake Trail Loop, then we rode F.A.T.S. on Sunday….Great weekend 😃
Great to see Augusta mentioned!! I just rode FATS (skinny loop) yesterday! 😃
