I've been riding behind gates almost every weekend since I got the bike back in June.
I'm getting back to some great country that I'd never see on foot.
I'm really looking forward to using it during deer season.

Anyone in the Sammamish Area who wants to ride with someone. Get up to some lakes in the Hancock forest to fly fish or some scouting let me know. I enjoy geting out with people. Would like to do it with someone who maybe already has and knows the trails.

I have a game cart I converted from a kid carrier. Haven't used it yet but it pulls my 11 year old around really well. He is only 110 lbs or so. I have sat on it and it seems to hold my weight (240) just fine.

If someone could PM me I could send them pics to their cell. I do not know how to get pics off this cell phone.

Anyways, happy MT biking adn hunting/fishing.

Jamieb,
Which Walmart did you find the panniers at?  Can't seem to find them.

Here's my bike set up and how I approach it.  If you read the next entry on my Oregon coast elk hunt you can see the practical use of a bike, panniers, and a kid trailer to haul gear and meat effectively.

Thanks for the offer. But I drive past that one everyday on my way home from work.

You realize by having that back rack on there you really aren't able to utilize the rear shock? Unless it somehow is hinged..

Heres mine. Of course I use it for trail riding as well as hunting. Works great for blacktails, just put the deer on top of the seat and push him out! :P
