Have used a mountain bike for several years. The experience on gravel roads in the dark can be enlightening.

Yours even comes with a seat. I was told that was extra and went without. Might be a mistake on my part.

Better get in shape if you aint already. Ride as much as you can before you take it hunting. You will be thankful you did.

I used to use one when I first moved to Alberta. Getting to some Elk country. Worked great! I drove thru herds in the dark going to sit some wallows. They hardly noticed. Good exercise!

Terry,
I think the perfect thing would be a tow behind cargo trailer for packing in your gear and taking out the game too.
Here is a link to an example

Terry, the B.O.B. series of trailers would be ideal for that set up. It has a single wheel and tracks right with the bike. I remember seeing someone post the link in your last bike thread. IThat would sure make for a fun advernture into the backwoods for a weekend hunt.

you can get a small pull behind trailer for your bike.
i have been getting in with a mtb for years often times very close to game with out spooking
or breaking a sweat...

Yep. Its got fenders .........I certainly don't mind getting dirty while hunting .......but no use in slinging it all over me and my gear.

Yeah .......thought the seat was a nice option    :biglaugh:

Might wanna put you a bell on that thing, Terry - you know, to scare off Sasquatch as you're on your way out of an evening hunt.

How about training wheels and some brighter paint so you can find it in the woods.  Dude, I'm kidding don't do it.
