Hey all, just wanted to say hi. I just joined your forum and so far it looks pretty good. I ride a '99 Rockhopper, all stock except for a Manitou SX-R fork. I used to race at the collegiate level in Colorado and now that I've been living around Chicago for a couple years I need to get back into recreational riding and back into shape. Hopefully you can all help me find some good daytrip-type places to go around the area. thanks

i used to live in chicago(philadelphia now), and despite most of the terrain being possibly the flattest anywhere ever, there is a really good area for mountain biking. i havn't been there in about 8 years though, so i'm not sure if it's still good or even there or legal or whatever. it's either near or in palos heights. there's a big tobaggon run down there. it's just off rt 83, i think near 115th street or something? again, sorry, i havn't been there in 8 years but i used to go each weekend. some great singltrack. you should definitely ask around if you like riding pretty technical singletrack. good luck.
