Hi,
I finally convinced my wife that we need to take a family vacation to Snowshoe next summer so I can mountain bike. Having never been there before, is this enough bike to get it done? I have an 06 Kona Coiler that's pretty stock other than Azonic Outlaw wheels, a Zoke 66RC2 ETA and FSA Pig DH Pro headset and also 2.35 Kenda Nevegals. I may have a new crankset and external BB before summer gets here. I like to think I'm a pretty good rider and can handle most freeride obstacles and stunts. I'm not Bender, though. I have a FF helmet, body armor, knee/shin and elbow/forearm guards. Is there any other equipment I should have or anything else important I should know beforehand? I know, I'm leaving myself wide open with that one. Anyhow, I can't wait! It's gonna rock!
