Looks like they did a good job. My dog and I will stick to the walking trails. Any of y’all locals try it out?

I did some mountain biking in the mountains south of Deer Valley Utah two days ago. It did not look like that guy. Not at all!

BUMP has really escalated their trail efforts. Not exactly sure where this new trail is, might be in the newly acquired area for the park off 280.
In addition to efforts at Iak Mountain, new trails have been added at Tannehill State Park

Downhill trails are fun, mountain biking is more challenging on your endurance and not as fun as people think.

Seth from the Berm Peak videos help coordinate and build this MB park in North Carolina. Would love to try it.

How does it compare to Driskill Mountain?

I’ve mountain biked for the last few years and absolutely hate it. The only reason I continue doing it is because I’ve spent thousands on the hobby thinking having the best of the best equipment would make it more enjoyable.
It has not. Too dangerous. Like I’ll look forward to a ride one day and then when on the bike I’m thinking to myself “oh yeah, this sucks”.

The “Roll the Dice” trail looked pretty fun. I find myself turning my head from side to side as I watch them. LOL

Make you tube videos about how much mountain biking sucks. There is probably an unrealized market for that.

I’m somewhat that way. If I’ve spent money on something I make myself do it whether I enjoy it or not until I feel I have got my money’s worth. It is a curse. I bet you force yourself to eat all the left overs in the fridge that no one else will too. I know I do. LOL

You guys are riding the wrong trails.

We do have some decent jump lines, but I always know I’m pushing my luck. One broken arm and how do I type at work? I code for a living so I’m basically screwed. It seems with MTB, you always have to push your limits over time or risk getting bored.

Great exercise and I enjoy riding trails but yeah, I’m not doing that shite.
That looks like a broken hip waiting to happen.

Our club Baton Rouge Mountain Bike Association (Bramba) makes annual trips in the fall to Oak Mountain. Nice place to ride, I enjoy it, but I’m getting a little old for jumps, so I might have to slow roll this new trail.

Lincoln Parish Park trail outside Ruston is one of the best in the South

You should take up a cheap hobby like golf or bass fishing.

One of the reasons I ride single speed mtb. Bikes and suspension are so good. Makes it easy to go fast. To me makes trails less interesting. Single speeding makes you look at the trail differently. Also keeps your speeds down since you run out of gearing on the downhills. Buy you go faster uphill as you have to keep on top of your cadence.
