Technique for smooth airs

I know it's probably not easy to write in words, but I am kind of new at the whole "catching air" thing.  I mainly stay planted both tires on dirt, but with Ray's opening up this week I was wondering…Continue

"Welcome!  I think a 4300 should be a good enough bike to start with.  I started with a trek 820 which is a step below the 4300.  You won't be able to do anything too dramatic with a 4300, but you will be able to have a really…"

"Any news on the updates and changes made to Ray's over the summer?  Can't believe that they open the doors again in like 3.5 weeks.  Where did the summer go?"
