    Mountain Biking

    Any good biking to be had in the Milwaukee area? I've been getting into it out here in Arizona.

    Have a Specialized XC Expert.

    The lower Kettle moraine trails (john muir trails)...pretty good trails from easy to fairly technical. Good climbs that aren't too long, but intense. Several different loops to warm up on, then hit the blue for some good riding.

    Good bike...would be well suited for either sunburst up north of west bend off 45 or there are some trails and nice downhill steeps at crystal ridge. Both are ski hills that have some rides during the summer.

    I ran (before it was STOLEN ) a trek 6700...nice and light, with good tires and disc front/rear and adjustable front shock. I road bike mostly (not this year sadly) on a Giant TCR c2.

    for a basic, quick ride, i usually just hit the alpha trail out by crystal ridge. if i have more time i do the john muir trail(its a bit of drive from me however). also there is great riding out by the levis mounds, which is even more of a drive and more of a weekend trip.

    Thanks, I have only been biking now for about 3 months. My buddy got me into it but the up side is that down here in Souther Arizona it is some great riding.

    We are at 3500ft and all the trails we ride are in the mountains via canyons.
