Thanks. I am luvin this bike! It gives you sooooo confidence (forgiving machine
) How has your been treating you? I can not wait to get back up a lil north so to hit some DH! Not any of that down here But wife and I are moving to Brevard, NC soon, I will be able to reach some rather quickly from there (at least closer that being in Orlando). Btw, I liked your build on yours, very nice!

You will like living in Western North Carolina, there are so many trails it is ridiculous. Not alot of places to freeride, but plenty of places to get your DH fix on, most of them you have to climb to access though. If you need any trail info check out the North Carolina forum, pretty much everyone from this area that rides is super nice and wouldn't mind showing you around. Or check out our Pisgah Area Sorba website:Dirtman said:

Welcome to North Carolina! See you on the trails.:thumbsup:
The Dirtbag has been THE bike i've been looking for all these years..
I honestly don't know why i didn't step into the "big bike" territory sooner. I was a little timid, thinking that pedaling and throwing around a heavy bike would be an issue, boy was i wrong and confused.
i'm a bigger dude, 215 or so without gear.. so i have issues with flexing smaller bikes. This bike, however, has no flex anywhere.. Riding a bike this solid simply allows me to forget about the bike itself, and focus on hitting the trail as aggressively as my skills will allow. I have so much faith in the strength of this build, that now i only have my own skill and fear limitations to overcome, which allows me to push my riding that much further.
So yea.. it's been treating me great.. and leaving me tired, dirty and satisfied.. just as it should

There was a freeride park scheduled to be built in Alexander Park just outside Asheville, but unfortunately the plans have been temporarily delayed. Alexander Park is on the backside of a landfill and unknowingly to Pisgah Area Sorba the landfill had rights to access certain areas of the park to obtain dirt for the landfill. Needless to say some new trails that were built just a few months ago were destroyed:madman:and put all plans for Alexander on hold. The building of the freeride park was scheduled to take place after all the new trails were constructed. The part that really sucks is that the city of Asheville gave us a $50,000 grant to build new trails and improve existing ones in Alexander, we also got a grant from IMBA for the freeride park, hopefully the money will still be available when this issue is resolved. Hopefully in the near future the scheduled plans will be able to move forward.Dirtman said:

I totally agree, mine weighs 40lbs and handles much smaller. I have a smaller/lighter Giant VT for trail riding, but only use the Dirtbag now!

Yeah, I have done things that I originally would not try for sake of equipment failure or just not enough bike, this bike creates riding freedom!
