Introduction

I spend all my time hanging out with mountain bikers! The friends I have made while riding in this club are the coolest people I have ever met. If I ever won a prize for me and 30 friends, I would have to make a choice who would get left out.

What are your interests?

I have a road bike but I get bored really quick and need rough terrain to keep me interested.

What would you like to try that you've never done?

I have never won a prize for me and thirty of my closest friends.

What is your favorite activity?

After an epic day of mountain biking, beat down and exhausted, my favorite activity is lying awake reliving the excitement and adrenaline of the day's events. So tired, yet so stoked. Then emerging from my tent the next morning and doing it again!!!

Additional Information

" I love exploring new places. My trail wishlist is so long. I am available at nonconventional hours due to my work schedule. One of my favorite things to do is introduce off road riding to kids and adults who have never tried it."

What Baxter is saying about this Meetup Group

This is an awesome place to meet other bikers and build new friendships. Being part of an adventure group is alot like grabbing a plate and bellying up to a food buffet. Some of the food is familiar and some of it is not. Some entrees look inviting, some it looks like garbage. If you try something new, or what you dont usually like, you might find a new fix. The biggest advantage of the food buffet is the variety, and how easy it is to try new things. The biggest advantage of being in an adventure group is the variety of activities and learning from the people who know.

    Castlewood MTB weekends?

    "Sunday afternoon is my favorite time to ride. When I am kid-free(every other) I'll plan on avoiding the easy places, otherwise easy to moderate suits me just fine."
