street/trials/flatland riders in Pennsylvania?

I'm from south-central, about 15 mins outside of Harrisburg. I almost
went to WCU! I don't really ride trials or flat, I just thought I'd

wii fit

I've never really understood the appeal of exercising in front of a
screen, much less paying hundreds of dollars for the privilege.

It seems too much like I'd be the hamster in its wheel, which is...

How do you dismount?

I see merit to both ways of dismounting.

I ride my 29er 99% of the time. In fact, I just sold my DX24 on the

Usually I dismount to the rear,...

29" tires - big volume

You guys might wanna look into the Continental Mountain King, which
comes in a 2.2 and 2.4. I have the 2.2, and really like it. It is a

What is the difference?

The difference is just great enough that if you own an '05, '06, or '07,
you feel like you need to upgrade to the new '08. However, the
difference also leaves enough room for more 'improvements'' in...

102mm cranks on a 29er...good idea?

I bought some 100mm cranks a few months ago. I usually ride 125s. I

After some more extensive use of it, I've decided that the continental
