New to mtb

[JSko]

Hello everyone, I am Jason, and I just started riding earlier this month. A friend of mine got me into it, and so far I'm loving it. I've mainly been riding the weekends, but I want to try to get out more during the week. I am out of shape and figured this is an excellent way to get some exercise and have a good time doing it. Every time I go out I am noticing great improvement over the last time.

I have been to Deer Park, and some of Allamuchy North. Since I am in Hackettstown its very convenient to have all these great parks in the area. I picked up my first bike which is a Airborne Guardian HT 29er. So far It has been great, and has taken quite a beating already.

See you on the trails.

I really like North compared to Deer Park, and I probably only seen 1/4 of it. My friend showed me the ropes of North, and really helped push me to improve myself there.

White trail up from tranquility gets a little tiring, once I am in better shape I think it will be no problem. We went to Lumpy yesterday, I had a few falls and laughs. It is challenging, but I need to try it so I can improve. Managed to pull my first OTB too
