Hi all, I'm new so thought I'd say hi. I'm Mike , 30 years old from Northants, I've only just really gotten into the mtb scene, and after googling local trails and places to go, I stumbled across the forum so thought I'd join up!
I'm a family man and not overly wealthy lol so I'm only on a budget hardtail at the minute, a coyote Nebraska, it suits my purpose for now and I bought it cheap from a friend , until I'm a little bit more confident and fitter, but I would like a better quality bike eventually.
Trail wise locally I've been riding scartree trail at wakerley woods and hopefully going to head over to harlestone firs one day this week so should be good :D I've seen a few pics of it on here and it looks great!
Anyways, anything anyone wants to know feel free to ask and if I can help with anything I will.
Cheers
Mike

    Hi and welcome.


    It's traditional to say hello in Crudcatcher so people can say who the fark are you etc.



    And to ignore anything I say.

    Cheers guys, at first I was thinking 'crudcatcher wtf!?' With you now though, other forums I've been on have had hello sections so I was a bit lost!
    So is their many other people on here from northants?

    Welcome to the family and i'm pretty certain you'll find a few from your neck of the woods on here as i was pleasantly surprised to find others on here that don't live that far away .
    You must treat others with respect in order to be respected ..
