This poor quality photo is of me just before heading out on some trails near Stevensville, Montana in the spectacular Bitterroot Valley of Western Montana! (I got 5 cents for the plug from the tourism buearu )

Hey Shannon-UT, I am going to be up in Ogden in June. Do you know of any good riding there?
Here I am on a local trail.

Let me clarify for you:
I'm in the white helmet, in the water-cooled car.

[QUOTE=dirtbikedude]Hey Shannon-UT, I am going to be up in Ogden in June. Do you know of any good riding there?
I haven't actually ridden in the Ogden area, though we had 2 planned trips that were cancelled due to bad weather. We were going to try the Bonneville Shoreline Trail and Antelope Island in March (an actual island in the Great Salt Lake with herds of buffalo on it!).
I can however refer you to this really good website:
www.utahmountainbiking.com
Find the Logan/Ogden list on the left hand side. I'm in the Logan area, so you can disregard these trails:
Jardine Juniper
Logan River trail
Old Ephraim's Grave
Rick's Canyon
Steel Hollow
Have fun, it looks like there's some really beautiful rides! I should get down there and try them.

Hey thanks, ronyex! I was pleasantly surprised when we got the pictures back. Pa-POW!
I actually lost ~20 pounds that year from biking, thanks to my new bike (old bike was worn out).

Waiting for the adapter for the front brake
The specialized letters are outlined, I was thinking about painting them in, no decals were taken off. I just set up the rear xt brake yesterday and it works really well, thats after I did my blow torch technique to the pads and rotor.
