Many years ago, now, I did mt bike rides out of Moab, Utah. That was pretty nifty even if I didn't know the first thing about such riding. I have ridden some of the forest service roads near Seattle and those can be fun. But I'm mostly a road road bike rider. But the road bike has done some gnarly forest roads, too - can you say broken spoke!
