I got a couple trail maps from East Coasters though. So youve never been off road yet? My "off-road" experience probably would be considered street riding by the pro's standards. And I dont plan to be jumping over and bolders or flying down a 40% grade any time soon lol. Im hoping to use it for the commute to campus on some days just for the exercise and hit some trails in my free time. Are you planning any off road excursions anytime soon?
I really don't know a lot about Pandapas besides what I have heard from some other people. It's easy to get to though, 460 out of Blacksburg towards the national forest and probably two miles down on the left. My neighbor has been trying to get me to go so maybe sometime soon. I'll send you a PM if we work out a date/time.
I thought East Coasters was a Fisher dealer but I wasn't sure, haven't been in there as much as Hokie Spokes, where I bought my KHS. Poor mtb has been relegated to trailer duty around the neighborhood since buying the road bike. Be nice to get it on the dirt and see how much I like that side of the sport.
