totally wiped out in the same spot yesterday haha

[SkankinScott711]

there's hills in florida?

[welbieh]

its an old overgrown phosphate mine.

[Konagregg]

Florida has some fantastic mountain biking. Most of the trails are built out of old mines. Plus we ride all year round.

[veprman]

Yes. not very big though.

[TheDreadnaughtBand]

ofcourse really big ones too there is a 60 foot cliff in the forest behind my house

[davefromjax]

[patrick5158]

[darkfink]

awesome to see trails on here that i used to ride so often. As much fun as i had at carter and alafia there is nothin that can compare to bikin in sedona and flagstaff, AZ. Good job on the vid!!

[br1an1127]

looks like an ok easy single track...if u want to ride more technical climbs and ride down rocks garden decents and all...go to markham park in sunrise or oleta river in miami

[psychlyst]

rollercoaster(first run)is at the top of a finger run...old mine,trail drops WAAAY down on either side into water...with gators!

[fightnuttube]

I'm considering a 2007 Coil ex for myself. What do you think of the 07's?

Keeping in mind that I'm 220lbs (hopeing to get down to under 200).

And since I'm 38, the riding won't be too extreme, but occasional beginner freeriding levels, maybe advancing to novice trails when I can get to them.

It should hold up, ya think?

[agoodlet]

I haven't seen much of the 2007 model but I have heard good things. When I was riding the diamondback I ranged from 200-215 lbs and never had a problem with hitting the bottom of the springs.

[dustinclinger]

who is the artistes of the two songs in your vid?

[fightnuttube]

At first I thought, great trails! Then I saw all the water, saw that this was in Florida and thought.....alligators???

Is that a problem in that area? Cool video btw.

[agoodlet]

On that part of the trail, in that water, there is a 14ft gator called big mama. There are many times our ride gets stopped due to gators laying on the trails. You just have to jump them, turn around, or go around em.

[agoodlet]

So you know how tired you can get after the fingers then right! Haha, I was so whooped, looks like I am going in slow motion there at first.

[samuelmfrost]

live there...ride there....awesome....

[peoplesporch22]

Heh....I go down that trail every weekend! ^_^

[linxangel]

I have to try that...

[cebrita]

[agoodlet]

[cebrita]
