Any young RIDERS?



I'm 17, from Manchester, England and I have a Saxon Tritec and got a DiamondBack FS10 for Christmas which is brilliant. I ride all over when I get the chance and love going on days out with my bike.
 
im 14 from thetford, got a scott nitrous 30, got it half price cos no ones heard of them so they were selling well.

unfornunatly it being a full sus freeride monster and me living in thetford i have very few good riding places.
 
I am 15 and I live in Charlotte, North Carolina (USA) I have a Trek 1500 and I will soon have a Giant Trance 4:D . I am on the Ultimate Bicycle/Bicycle Sport team.

Hey, I'm 17 from the land of Aus. I ride an Apollo Dual Susp. LDX, I've smashed it up pretty good in the last 2 years so I'm saving for a GIANT Rincon '04. As I have no job and I only get $25 a week from the oldies (srry) 'my parents' It's taken a while to get the money, but by Thursday next week I'll be carvin it up when ever I can (and even when I can't) :)
Get a job at a Bike Shop or a Grocery Store, it'll make the money come faster and you will actually have earned it.;)

Happy Trails:D

Photo from the 10 yr old and under start at last week's MTB off-road time trial at Hilton Falls, Ontario Canada. This age group did a 5 km loop -- but it was a fairly rough course with rocks, ice etc. The 11-14 age group was popular also.
 
well I am mainly a roadie, but my friend Mike is trying to convert me big time.
:) I'm 21, female, and am one of two girls that is in the mtn bike scene here. There are a few others, but I've yet to see them. Right now they just exist in theory... lol...

Daniel Elps, 16 years old, began "seriously" riding at 14 after 3 years of long distance running and cross country, began racing at 15, 2nd season just ended and I am putting in some serious base milage ( 3-4 hours a day, 6 days a week)

I am homeschooled

Goals for next year:

. Get points to go from a 4 to a 3 ( race category) early in the season ( Halfway there already!

)

.Top 3 the Rock Hill RR in the Cat. 4's, hopefully moving up to a 3 afterwards

. Top 20 the National Championship (USA) ITT

. Help my team leader(s) win the National Championship RR and Crit in the 17-18 age group

.Qualify for the L'abitta junior stage race in Canada ( 10 or 11 stages, 5 days)

.Top 5 the French Broad Stage race ( 3 days) in the Cat. 3's

. Top 10 the Carolina Cup Crit

Win several lower-key races, espically if there is one in my hometown ( it was cancelled last year

Hey I'm 20, 2 weeks away from 21 and legally being able to have a beer after the thursday night races at Buck Hill (any minnesota/Twin Cities riders?)... Bought a Trek 4300 my senior year and started to actually get into XC when I got to college and met some more serious riders. Just finished my first race season this summer and am looking forward to moving up a class next year! Getting rid of the 4300 for it though, looking through ebay right now for a stumpjumper, in hopes of being fastest on the trail next year...
 
I'm 16 and from the east midlands in the UK. I started properly mountain biking (mainly XC) about 6 months ago, I bought a Schwinn Mesa GSD (UK version very different to the US one), and i love cycling.
