So I've posted a few times in GTLuke's thread: http://www.mtbnj.com/forum/showthread.php?t=23485 about a mtb friendly town with some property. I've been searching for closing on a year now and I've looked at probably 100 places in Hunterdon and Somerset counties. I think I may have finally...

Hey everyone, The right hand shifter on my Jamis Supernova is partialy broken and I want to know if it's possible to fix or do I need to replace the whole thing. (I bought the bike used so I have no idea about any warranty possbility.) What is happening is when I shift up(to a bigger cog...

So I've come to realize that hydrating through Gatorade is doing me a disservice with the additonal liquid calories. It's not unusual for me to be drinking 64+ ozs of Gatorade on these warm days and that equals an extra 400+ calories that I may or may not be needing. Considering most of the...

Ok so I totally stole the title from the awesome show: "An Idiot Abroad" featuring none other than the unintentionally hilarious Karl Plinkington. If you havne't seen it you totally should. The plan here is to detail some of my experiences in riding my bike and improving my diet as I start to...

I know 6mr isn't the most techinical place but just a friendly reminder to ride safe and always pay attention. I was out last tues (8/17) for a casual ride with my brother and a friend and caught a bad line going over one of the small (like 4 foot) wooden bridges on the 27 side and ended up...

What's everyones concept of a perfect Bike for 6mr? I'm riding a near ancient (cira 97) schwinn homegrown that has v brakes and a rock shock judy. I love the bike but it's getting long in tooth and it's getting time to upgrade. I love 6mr and ride there the most often so was curious what...

Hey everyone, was wondering if anyone can give me some advice/insight on what they think the average lifetime for a mid-quaility Al frame hardtail is. I ride a mid 90's (I believe 96) Scwhinn Homegrown that has served me well but I am beggining to wonder if it hasn't reached the end of it's...

I was wondering what it takes some of the riders here to ride the whole 6MR from 27 to Canal and back (or the other way around). I start out on the 27 side go out on the red taking as much of the trail and avoiding the fields, cross over middlebush, staying on the red to canal and then back...

Tried riding there for the first time today since six mile is too wet. Parked at Cushetunk and went straight into the trail head there. That was a mistake, it was straight up and a nightmare. Spent much more time hiking than biking. Got to the top by making rights at every fork. Once at the...

I'm serious, 6MR is very close to me (<10miles) and I love riding there during the week but it's obviously too wet there right now. So what are some other places in the area that are rideable when 6MR is just too sloppy? I don't mind getting wet myself but don't want to tear up the trails.

Huge thanks to all those that make 6MR possible. It has given me the love for cycling once again.

Anyone help me out with this one. I have slight knee pain at the top of my knees when sitting down after riding. I'm just getting back into riding and have been mostly at 6MR. Rides last from 1-2 hours and I never feel pain while riding. I feel comfortable on the bike, saddle is at a decent...

Hi everyone. Just picked up riding again after a long hiatus. Been mostly riding 6MR and Rutgers. Probably start branching out to a few of the other areas shortly.
