DAMN Riders - No rules, Just ride!

Well this would be for basic trail riding and maybe some of the scheduled rides that you find on here.

OK so being a newb to the dirt, I would like to know what gear I should be looking at getting. I know I need a helmet, goggles and I want some off road boots and gloves...outside of that what would you suggest or is that enough? I do have some fieldsheer mesh pants with knee amour that I am going to...

As far as Quehana hwy and paved, have you ridden Wycoff run? Jax's I'm not sure if we took Wykoff Run down to 555 or maybe it was Red Run Rd to 555, but one of those trails is the creek crossing picture. They did have a new trail set up to come the hill from the Benezette side, but you gotta watch ...

LOL If things don't pan out for Ohio, I would be interested in this ride. I really need some more road friendly tires on the XT to cruise to Russells though. ...

Thanks dmar.... I got the bike tagged today - being an old bike they let me tag it as a historic vehicle...NO INSPECTION - YEAH!!!! I took it out on the road today and those tires don't make road riding fun :whoop: , but I cant wait to get in the dirt...I think I will have to get a 2nd set of tires ...

Hey thanks everyone. Jax - sounds like a fun place to hang out. Kath - I know the feeling...I love my street bike too. Still trying to get the bike set up properly - looks like maybe a rear shock from Works Performance ($659.00) is in order. So far they seem to have the best customer service and hav...
