Hello Everyone
Have been in the area about 6 months and enjoying all the hiking trails and getting ready to start mountain biking again. Used to bike a ton when I was a teenager and thought it might be a fun way to loose some weight and see more of the beauty Germany has to offer.
Currently riding my old 11+ year old Diamondback Sorrento with no suspension. Works great for around base, but thinking of adding a fork or upgrading to a better bike soon. But haven't seen much in the used market on Ramstein Yard Sales. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Anyways enjoying reading the various info in the forums, thanks for sharing you knowledge.

Welcome
Arron,
Glad you posted and willing to get out and ride. With the way the weather has been you might be better of buying rain gear than a new bike. The best advice I have is to join a group ride or show up at the next meeting. You can sponge off the guys about the best deals and what has worked for them. There are plenty of good local shops that will help spend your money.
