Hi,

My name is Joe.

I am a complete newbie to MTB riding but have been riding bikes all my life, i have recently brought myself a new bike and i would like to get a bit more stuck in.!! I am not super fit but hope to get better in time.

As my signature says i have a 2014 whyte 529 29er. it is my first 29er and i am still getting familiar with it. I have been over Thorndon park once with my dads mate that's been doing it for years and loved every second of it. Unfortunately my dads not in to MTB riding so wanted to find some more people to meet and ride with hence the reason i joined this forum.

Hope to here back from some friendly folk. :thumbup:

Welcome along, at the moment the only times i have been get out over thordon have been in the evenings so lights are needed, weekends are for road trips. Got plenty of route maps on GXP if you want any

GXP is a tracking file from running strave or endomodo. can use it on a garmin or other satnat sort of devices. have a look at one of the routes i have done
