Is Mountain Biking a rich mans sport?
I never see cheap, clunky cars in MTB parks parking lots.
I'm probably the only homeless jobless person that is able to coordinate my affairs (defense) against FBI/CIA/NSA, and still manage to acquire necessary resources, to show up at MTB parks, MTB, and I am more skilled than most. So, never seeing a cheap car, most are SUVs, corporate white collar young men, or actually I see more middle aged me, including older aged, than I do youngsters. In fact I don't ever recall seeing teenagers, not even 19 or 20 year olds. It either is too expensive for all the gear or they're the extremists that go to the official "MTB only" parks and pay and ride the MTBer only trails and don't bother with public parks or trails. But never do I see average cars it's always brand new higher quality vehicles in the parking lot. |

Mountain bike experts say a bike that won't fall apart under the stresses of mountain biking start at $600. Mike would be that expert because, by his own defintion, he himself is a mountain-biker. |
