Hello,

My name is Alfredo and i came across Terry Hershey Park when i was googling an alternative to running with more miles and came across mountain bikes and trailing so this website popped out and looked at some videos of the trails it looked like alot of fun anyways i bought my budget mountain bike Schwinn Aluminum Comp i went this last weekend with my brother to try it out it handled better than i expected wish i could say the same for my brother as he bent his rim and messed up his derailleur. This coming up weekend i will be goin with a friend to have some fun and stay fit :yahoo:

Yo Alfredo, welcome to the site! It's always good to hear about new peeps wanting to stay or get fit. Mountain biking is a great way to do so. As your brother I'm sure already learned, it can also be a bit of a evel knievel sport. Which is why I think I love it so much. At the very least a helmet should be worn. I know they're not the coolest looking things but trust me, it's a lot cooler looking than the back of an ambulance.

Did your brother replace his rim yet? Post up some pics of it if you can... :cool:

no sorry we threw out the bike

on another note i had my first accident came down fast on the hill where ahead there was a curve so close to the bayou where i hit a root and drifted and i had let go bike and take care of me so then i tought for sure my bike landed on the bayou never to be seen then as soon as i got up and collected myself i looked back and my bike was being held by a brave little branch so i lean over to get it and i was on my way until i realize my water bottle was missing so i had to go back and i ended up finding it :yahoo:
