    and which protective armor and pads you recommends. I have been to cooper harbor but never been into MTB trail. I have climbed Brockway on road bike all the way up twice and the road was rough enough that I though I was on MTB trail already. haha

      Yup. There is ride-arounds for everything. It's still gonna be a little scary the first time down, especially if you've only ever ridden blues. But you'll be fine if just take it slow and easy. We like the Alpinestar Bionic Chest Protector with the removable shoulder armor. Don't forget your knee pads. Good luck! 😁👍

    Gap jumps are simply the stupidest thing in MTB. It's fun to jump. But when minimal traction is available due to skinny tires (I ride MX dirt bike as well) and no way to crank a bit of speed at last second, they are simply dangerous baloney. So many people getting hurt needlessly. Even if you are a top MTB rider, ANY run up to a jump can be slightly off, ending in disaster.
