Howdy all,
I'm thinking about purchasing a mtn bike soon for camping and deer hunting. Every year I push a cart up a closed NF road for 5-6 miles and make a camp. A friend suggested a mtn bike and a bike trailer might save us some time. Any ideas? Which forum?
Right now I'm thinking of a Trek 4300 pulling a Burley flatbed trailer. I'll strap on a Rubbermaid Roughneck container (the footlocker size one) for our gear which will weigh about 40lbs going in (up). Any suggestions would be appreciated. FWIW, I'm 41 and in decent shape, I treadmill 2-3 times a week and hit the weights also.
Thanks,
GreenHorn
