New Hobby started in 2014 – Great Fun…

It’s all Mountain Biking…🚵‍♂️

Lot of Mountain Biking happening this summer, it’s taking over the Motorbiking… We’ve been to the GAP a number of times, as well as a trip to Ballinastoe track, it’s been great…!

The kids are loving it (especially when we get the uplift service in the GAP…), not that they don’t like cycling uphill… who doesn’t…🤷‍♂️.

Summer, Bobby, Skye and Angel, all doing great. I think some of them might need some new/better bikes soon, with the jumps and tricks they are doing… there’s even been some trips over the handlebars once or twice (Summer and Bobby…😉).

Mountain Biking 2014 – The Start…

Well we took up mountain biking as a hobby this year, always wanted to give it a try and I’m glad we did. Great fun. Helps if you have experience on bikes in general and with the MotoCross experience we have this makes it that bit more suitable.

So far we’ve only being getting to the Ballinastoe track, and maybe an outing or two in the Phoenix park, but Ballinastoe is a great track. Some really nice fast-flowing bits as well as a few technical bits also. Some great little jumps round the course too.

The kids have also liked getting out. Casey, Tori and Jordan M also got new mountain bikes this year, plus all the gear to go with them for safety, you have to be safe doing this!

Well here’s looking forward to some great outings this year on the mountain bikes. Won’t be forgetting about the MotoX though, will try to get a bit of this done this year also.

See below some vids of the latest outing in Ballinastoe –
