Mountain Biking - my mountain bike trip with pics....

Went back out to oak mtn today and did the full 17mile loop. it was awesome. It was a great day to ride. Not to many people out there and the trails were not crowded at all. I had a blast and am looking forward to going back out there again.



These are some pics i took last weekend out at oak mtn. Had a good ride last weekend and the only thing i screwed up was i busted a pedal when i hit a slick bridge to fast and wiped out. These pics were taken with my cell phone so the quality is not the best.

P.S. the walmart bike is still holding up.....

nice!! you may need a new pedal

Nice pics. I love seeing trail pics. Looks like a good time.

great time even got to play in a little mud. new pedal already installed

Nice pics. They look pretty good, especially for a cell phone cam!

Those pics are great for a cell phone. What kind of phone is it?

Looks like a great time. And like a few others said those pics are great for a cell phone..there deffinetly better then the pictures my phone can take.

looks like a fun place! don't worry about the bike, it will hold for awhile...just ask Dminor!

how long did the ride take?

Hey thanks for the ride pics, Nice job

Cool pics.....

where is this? Your bike looks pretty cool.

oak mtn state park. took around 2 1/2 hours for the whole loop including stopping for pics. phone is a LG vx8300 i think is the model, its a 1.3 megapixel camera. Yep it was fun. Got a little chilly as the sun started going down but was great weather over all. this makes the third weekend in a row i have been out there. Ill stop and take more pics of the singletracks next time im out there. At one point i hit 21mph coming down a hill on a trail thats like as wide as my handle bars. talk about a rush

stupid work computer systems....double posted and now i cant delete

Looks like a great time! Ever think about removeing the kickstand?

Looks like a great time! Ever think about removeing the kickstand?

I hadn't even noticed that.

BlkGuitarRedCar - Be sure to remove that kickstand if you go out on any trails. You can get quite hurt with a kickstand. If you use your bike around town, you can easily add/remove the kickstand but you should definitely take it off for the trails.

hahah you know i never use it and kind of forgot about. ill do that when i get off work today. i did remove the reflectors and stickers and all that junk but the kickstand slipped my mind. thanks for reminding me about that

Is this at Oak Mountain in B'ham, AL?

yes bham alabama...you from bama?

yay im glad im not the only one here riding a department store bike :]

Yeah, I graduated from UAB. That was where I got the cycling bug. I used to ride OM 3-4 times a week. Since I graduated I have moved to North Alabama where trails are scarce. I ride mostly on the road now, but I was able go make it down to B'ham Saturday and rode the full 17mi. loop. If you live close take full advantage of that trail. I have ridden all over the southeast, and OM is as good as any I have ridden.

i live like maybe less than 15miles maybe 15-20 minutes top from there
