Mountain Biking
 
Hi I got a new MTB two days ago (2/22/04)

It is the Specialized Hardrock Sport. http://www.specialized.com/SBCBkMode...wvq23ak.j27005 It is in the color Dream. I have installed a Bell Cycle computer and it is up and running! I am very happy today! I plan on doing my first MTB ride along the Schuylkill river on a Mountain bike trail. Then in Valley Forge on a Semi MTB trail. Eventually when my parents agree in French Creek State Park on Real MTB Trails!


BTW Buy from Bikesport in Trappe, PA beacuse they give you free service for life!

Well what bikes do you guys have?

I used to mountain bike a lot, gonna get back into it this summer hopefully. Right now, I have a Specialized Stumpjumper Pro for cross country-racing and Specialized FSR Pro for downhilling.

Cool! We were wondering where you were so where the hell were you for the last few weeks?:) I wish I had more money for mountain biking but it is not the easiest to go Mountain biking 20 miles outside of Phila. but there is some great places nearby.

Racer9 03-07-2004 05:47 PM

Cool! I just got back from an 8 mile mountain biking trip! It was awesome! It is off of Betzwood state park. It is across from Valley Forge park. It is a little known trail that is very good. I even saw some of the local racer out there practicing!:) :) :) :D :D :D

Greetings,
Just thought I'd drop in and share my new bike. I just placed an order for a Specialized P.2 at my local bike shop. It came down to two bikes. The Specialized BigHit SPEC or the Specialized P.2. Full suspension or hardtail? Hard decision. The shop owner rode a P.3 and let me take it for a spin. I decided on the P.2, because I liked how the P.3 rode. Both bikes have the same frame. Check it out:

The picture on the website just doesn't do the bike justice.

Racer9 03-31-2004 06:39 PM

Cool! I would have gotten one of those if I had the money!

Builder 04-01-2004 08:11 PM

Hello!,
Great news! The shopowner sold me the P.3 I test rode for the price of a P.2. He picked it up last fall and only rode it one time, because he wanted a different bike. So instead of paying $800 for a P.2 I payed $800 for a P.3. A P.3 normally retails for $1300. He only wanted $780 but I decided I would just give him $800 for it. Get on his good side.;) Plus he is throwing in a new $150 full face helmet, elbow pads, knee pads, shin pads, and free service for life.

Racer9 04-02-2004 02:18 PM

Cool! I get free service for life at my LBS but no extra goodies for free. I just get a 10% discount for 30 days which has ended. damn it!

Okay but FS or hartail? I have a hardtail. I am happy! Goodbye!

Builder 04-12-2004 03:26 PM

Greetings,
I too ride a hardtail, as you should know. I love my P.3, because it will do just about anything I ask of it. The only damage I have done so far was off of a two story drop, which I did not land. It broke the front brake handle off, the front shifter, and ruined the rear tire. I only got the wind knocked out of me, because I was wearing full pads including a mouth guard and cup. :)

Racer9 04-12-2004 03:37 PM

lol!

No big jumping for me yet but hey I am just wimpy.

aperson 05-01-2004 04:40 PM
