(am saving up for a marin rocky ridge)

whats your best? current mountain bike or best mountain bike you've had?

any good trails which i should know about or ride? any good clubs to join in salford area?

not rode for about three years and have just got my claud butler trail ridge back (in horrendous condition) from my sisters boyfriend. Am close to smacking the f**ker and charging him the money i've had to spend to get it back to 'normal'. He only had it for two weeks, but theres no way of proving it was like that when he got it...it was in perfect condition. tw@t!

Lads if your looking for bike treks check out the site.
<a class="postlink" href="http://www.mapmyride.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.mapmyride.com</a> I have used it a couple of times and it is good. Not too sure if they have a lot of mountain treks you would just have to check it out for yourself.

after spending a good part of my youth BMXing all over the NW I have recently rediscovered my love for biking. I had a bad knee injury and was told by my specialist to "get on yer bike" to build up my muscles in prep for the op and again to build up the muscle waste after the op. I bought a Trek 3900 2009 model last june and *I'm loving it, I bike it to and from work everyday down the canal towpath and if I get some time I'll be going on some trails soon!

I got one in blue and silver, naturally, and it cost me £250 brand new with 6 months interest free credit, a bargain IMO. I'm already beginning to think of an upgrade though!!

I've got one of these but the chain keeps getting rusty don't know why (oil before and after each ride), the first chain snapped whilst I was riding it second one seized up after about a month and it needs another new one now. I must be doing something wrong!
