Hey all! I just got my first MTN bike about a month or 2 ago. Hadnt had much time to be on it because I havent been home but Im starting to ride alot more. Ever since I have ridden bikes, Ive always ridden BMX (like all little kids!), but now that Ive gotten bigger, it KILLS my knees to ride those 20 inchers (skateboarding probably didnt help either).

So now I picked up and entry level bike. An IronHorse Warrior Sport. It has a Marzocchi MX Comp front fork, disk ready hubs and disk mounts on the fork and frame. I have already added a Avid front disk, and plan on a rear soon.

I am looking to do some mild trails here in the PNW, mainly in Oregon. Mt. Hood isnt too far and I have heard of good trails there so it would be greatly appriciated if someone could tell me about them.

Thanks!

Welcome to bF.
I lived in Olympia many, many years ago.

There are lots of PNW folks here but they mostly hang out in the Commuting, Road, and General forums.
