Most mtn biking has not yet started for the season as the trails are still wet and muddy. I'm told things dry out in April. I'm looking forward to getting out on my new mtn bike. Missoula is a great town for any kind of outdoor activities but especially for mtn biking and hiking. By the way, I was born and grew up on the Jersey side of the Hudson but haven't gone back in decades.
I'm also on Jersey side, Somerset County to be somewhat exact.
Spouse isn't big on the outdoors, so Montana would be more of a destination stop if we every get there
