    Nassau Trail conditions

    That's always my strategy, except I add: Step 6: Return to MTBNJ and see if getting lost after taking two forks is normal or it's just me. Good to know I'm not alone.

    Your Favorite Long, Beginner Friendly NJ Trails

    Thanks, but you're right, UTT is a bit too far for me. D&R had it moments with the lock systems and canal. Researching Columbia after mentioned here, I see mixed reviews on-line, it seems like you need to commit to the entire trail to see all it has to offer. If there is a pump track in High...

    Loved Allaire back when I had the time to ride singletrack and lived in Monmouth County. I'm up in Union County now. If I am going to be in that "area" I saw that the Sandy Hook trail had a bunch of stellar reviews.

    Hi! I am eager to try a new, scenic New Jersey trail that I can take the wife and her family on (aged 30-35). They do not ride regularly, and would probably only go if there was something worth seeing and if its safe and relatively flat. The two that come to mind for me are: D&R Canal Trail...

    Well done with your picks--I hope sergio moves down to flyweight, I don't know how many times I can watch benavidez fight mighty mouse. I actually picked all 5 main cards wrong, all 7 undercards correct, if that means anything. Correction, I picked one main card event right, hendricks won that.

    Results are up on the Monmouth County Parks website! Looks like I'm dead in the middle at 20. Definitely have my work cut out for me next year.

    It's going to be a damn shame if we never see Alvarez or Chandler in the UFC. I think that fight was much better than Sanchez/Melendez.

    Woods Hollow Classic 13'

    This was my first mtb race as well. Definitely a blast and I'll be looking to do this next year and maybe an H2H as well. Rob, just one more spot up and you could have earned yourself a plaque. There was one hill towards the middle that was a killer.Did they post the full results? the...

    Hybrid bikes at 6 mile

    Took my noob friend out to 6mr for the first time. He had a hybrid diamondback off of woot!, I had my Revel 0. After 15 minutes, I was the one with a flat tire.:hmmm: Realistically though, he had a great time at 6mr on a hybrid, however he wasn't able to corner nearly as fast as I could. He...

    +1. Chris seems like a mw version of cain velasquez, just a hardwork pays off kind of guy. I really hope he can get silva down. If not, 2nd Round tko.

    Knees and Cycling

    Hard to pinpoint the exact time of the pulling sensation since I partake in other sports. My bike that's clipless is currently in the shop, I'll need to evaluate how I feel after I ride once i get it back. Thanks for the input!

    Knees and Cycling

    Thanks for the advice. I'll reach out to my LBS. Fitman: it's funny you bring this up. I tried clipless for the first time this month, and the first thing I noticed is how "inward" my legs felt while riding the bike. However, I wasn't sure if this was simply the efficiency brought on by going...

    Knees and Cycling

    Hi All, I was wondering if any of you have come across this knee issue in your training. I've been experiencing this "pressure" feeling in my knee when I am pedaling downward in higher gears. It doesn't exactly hurt, but it feels like something is being tugged on inside my knee making it...

    Talk about an evening of letdowns from the fan favorites. It always hurts to see Big Country lose but Stipe showed good fight IQ, and delivered with efficient accurate straight strikes.
