so all the downhill races for the rest of the year are over 3 hrs away from richmond and I can't go that far i've been puting up with it pretty well but whenever i walk out the door I see my bike and get this crazy craving to go downhilling. Any suggestions to keep me from throwing myself off my roof, because i know my bike can't handle a drop to flat that big.

- Start date
get that mountain biking video game "downhill domination" for ps2 is supposed to be sweet. but maybe ittl make it worse.
Buy a FR hardtail or hookworms for your current bike and go bombing down stair cases and such in town.
go to the shed its only a hour or so from richmond
... or 3
that game pisses me off so much.
I hate that game
because the body position of the riders is rediculous and its a joke. although it is a laugh

are you retarded?
The Shed is an hour or so from DC, and DC is 2 hours or so from Richmond
There is plenty to ride around Richmond, you just have to know where to look. PM me and we can hook up sometime and ride. Also check out www.cyclingcentralva.org for some local riding.
If getting a ride to the races is the problem, there are quite a few people around richmond that go to the races, i'm sure we can fit you in somewhere....
oh sorry i didnt know it was that much further.
I've got downhill domination and beten it... twice. I've been going to pocohantas and belle island doing xc with my friends. I did the race at camp hilbert last weekend but its hard to find a place thats downhill oriented.

It's not that i'm not willing to drive but at 16 my parents aren't willing to let me, and as for selling the bike I still like to ride it i just wish i could do it more.dhbuilder said:

Well thats no good...I hear ya though, at that age I remember not being able to do a lot of stuff. Stupid parents can get in the way of lots of stuff. I guess either follow some of these guys advice, or find another way around it. But this too shall pass, so dont sweat it too much.
where do you live in richmond?
