Hey there, I'm fairly new to the sport of mountain biking, having not rode any type of bike for @ least 15 years. For the last 7 years I have had a kidney disease witch limited me physically. About 8 months ago I recieved a second chance @ life and had a transplant, witch instanly gave me more energy than I was used to. As I recovered I looked for ways to stay as healthy as I could. I started working out w/ weights but needed a cardio I would stick to. I recalled my youth as a bmx rider and thought I would give mountain biking a try. I instanly fell in love with the sport and have been hooked since. I now own 2 bikes, a hardtale and a full syspention trail bike, the later is a custom build, and ride 2-3 times a week. I am looking forward to talking w/ some of you in the future.
