It's been a while since I've rode on my BMX GT bike when I was a teen. Actually, I never really liked riding bicycles except skateboarding (owned a Mark Gonzalez), but that's a different story. Anyway, I thought it was time for some bike riding again so I bought myself a yellow/black Gary Fisher Marlin. It's a neat bike and I felt like a teen all over again just riding it around town. I'm still working on locating some good dirt trails around here, though.

Picture of my bike...

cool bike..ive thought about getting a mountain bike but i dont think theres a seat big enuff for my big ass ha :booty:
 
It is good looking bike!! Dang.. one thing I hate is seat because it looks hard for my ass. I prefer soft and comfortable seat, so my ass will be very very happy. :naughty:
 
cool, I have one that can fold in half, but I dont like it too much, I like a regular bike. I had a perfect one that felt like you were in heaven cuz you would just FLY......but someone stole it at my high school :(

Nice bike... I've always wanted a mountain bike that has front and back wheel suspension. That way, you feel almost nothing when going through bumps and rough territory!
 
I used to ride around the mountains here in Arkansas. Right now, I'm too lazy. :p
 
Opps, forgot to add that I was going to buy a new bicyle one day. more likely a mtn bike.
 
I still have huffy bike when I was 7 yrs old. It still good. Its somewhere in the attic in the garage.

Get it out of the attic, oil up the chains and take it out for a spin.
 
I've never really enjoyed Mountain Bikes. I did used to own one, took it out in the trails; it's a good training exercise for Motorcross.

I prefer BMX'ing, street, park, and dirt-jumping.
 
I have two mountain bikes. One for me, one for my hubby. We need to get them out and start riding them soon. (I haven't touched mine since two years ago. :o )
 
as i was tri-geek(triathlete), i didnt like the idea of mtn biking on trails. and i was aganist it for many years because i was for trails for hiking only for years. at kennesaw mountain near marietta, georiga an azzhole mtn bike that BARELY hit me when he raced himself downhill behind me. i was checking on my ex at my shoulder somehow i yelled at my ex 'look out' and we jumped out of the trail. VROOOM ! ! he got disappeared in wood. i was soooooo pizzed off at that azzhole. good enuf, that kennesaw mtn now bans mtn biking on trail. YAHOO ! it is not FAIR to those trails that have bad erosions from mtn biking. however, i am now accepting to any mtn bikings on trails as long as the riders respect the natures and hikers as well. those trails have restricts areas for the mtn bikings.

Speaking of stolen...Ya know, when I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle. Then I realised that the God doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me.

Ha...very funny! :rofl:
 
Had a mountain bike myself that I rode around after I wrecked my car 11 years ago. It was a GT Zaskar and I beat the shit out of it for 2 months and I even blew 2 rear derailers during that time. I sold the bike right after I bought another POS car to drive around.

I havent ridden bike since then.

:rofl: @ nuty -- good one! :thumb: I have a mountain bike, but it has been sitting in the garage for nearly 2 years, have only ridden it a handful of times. :Oops: When summer rolls around -- I will try to go out on my bike with my hubby on his...and ride as much as I can. ;)
 
Bought mine in Tally, Fla when I was living in Ga back in 2000 and started riding again in Ga then in Vancouver, Wa then finally here in Tucson.

here's pic of my bike taken in Vancouver, Wa 2001
