I ran into some folks at Allamuchy yesterday who lost their dog, I figured I would post this in case anyone riding there comes across it. The dog is a shepherd mix named Nala, dark with a curly tail, about 50lbs. She was lost Thursday night (4/22), near the Cranberry Lake section of...

Anyone up for a Friday night ride, start at maybe 6pm? Was thinking either JH or Ringwood, haven't been to either in a few weeks.

I'm going to be in Bridgehampton Long Island for Thanksgiving & am looking for a good place fairly local to there to ride. Does anyone have any suggestions and\or maps? Edit: It's actually Westhampton, it seems that's pretty close to Manorville & I used to ride dirtbikes out there...

Planning on riding JH tomorrow night at 6pm, figure on about a 2 hour ride which should let us cover most of the trails. Dress warm :D

Who's headng to to Platty this weekend? Not sure if I'm going to race it, but I'm definitly going up to ride. Snow should be completely melted & the trails in good shape by Saturday. Last weekend of the year! :getsome:

I was putting on a new Shimano LX chain & due to a bit of distraction neglected to thread it through part of the derailleur cage, which of course I didn't discover until I had pressed the pin in. :( So... do I have any other options other than breaking the chain & putting a quick link in?

I'm borrowing this from a great thread on mtbr (below)... I freely admit to putting a headset race in upside down, tires on backwards, stripping bolts where 1/4 turn less would have sufficed. I don't own a roof rack because I KNOW I'll drive the bike into something, but I've taken the front...

What would you guys consider to be the best 'bang for your buck' out of the following: Rage, Enduro, Firestorm or Flight? I'm trying to figure out what the best HID light in the $300 range is, I have a friend who can get me a very good deal on Niterider lights, but I don't have a lot of cash...

Planning on riding up to Skyline from Pool Hollow Road in Oakland at 4:30 on Thursday if anyone wants to ride. Don't have a light at the moment so I have to make it back by dark, but that's still a good 2 hours of riding. Lemm'e know... :D

So what is the course like for Blue Mountain? I've seen the course map, but have never been there & am curious as what kind terrain it is. I've heard it's pretty tech, but is there alot of climbs, mostly singletrack or alot of fireroad, etc?

Don't know if anything has been posted about this yet, but I just happened to see this in the local paper today that Hidden Valley is going to be hosting an XC race series every Thursday night starting the 17th & going through the end of August & then a Cycle Cross series through September &...

Anyone ridden there? Any good? I lived 1/2 mile from there for two years & haven't ridden it yet, but I'm thinking of trying it out this week (if it's worth it) any loop recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone going? They are running the same course from rounds 3 & 4 from last year, very fun track w/ minimal rocks, but plenty of twists, turns & BIG roots! It'll be nice to get back onto a somewhat normal course after the having to run BMW at race speed (& I'm hoping to redeem myself...

What other trails are at JH besides the switchbacks up from the parking area & the trail that follows the perimeter of the upper (big) parking lots? I know there are others & I'd like to expand my usual loop there this week. By the way, excellent job on the trail building to whoever...

Who else raced it? I had a good race run going up until I ate it big time on the grass turn right before the finish & ended up midpack. It would be almost worth it if anyone got it on video, I must have slid a good 50 feet on my back (body armor acted like a sled, lol) before I...

Check out the fog in some of segments, when you were on the lift on saturday, you couldn't see the chair in front of you, it felt like you where all alone is some sort of void, lol It turned out the be a really fun race though, the course was much tackier than you would have thought, by my...

Saw this posted in the NJ forum on MTBR, it appears legit as the original story is from here: http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2008/04/nine_state_parks_may_close_und.html Nine state parks may close under budget ax...

Rode Ringwood yesterday, great ride! Some snow, but not much, mostly frozen hardpack with a bit of ice up high on the ridge & a bit of mud down low by 5 bridges. Curiously, the most snow was down low by the Ryerson school, but none once you got over by Renegade & 5 Bridges. All...

Anyone know what the Skyline\Ringwood or Jungle Habitat conditions are like? Wawayanda is a sheet of ice, I was wondering if it was any different over there. I know this belongs in the other forum, but there haven't been any posts in the Ringwood forum since November, so I figured I'd...
