Woo-hoo, getting my new bike when I get back to Oz (Giant Reign 2 I reckon unless I get a good price on a speccy enduro) but I'm wondering about what to do with my old one.
It's a 2004 Kona Caldera still in good condition. I'm still going to be using it as a commuter and general knockabout bike however there's a pretty good dirt jump spot near my apartment that could be good for pissing about on during the week. The only thing is, the caldera's more of a recreational XC bike.
Do you think it's a good idea to use it for dirt jumping? I've never really gone in for the whole DJ scene before so it's not as if I'll be cutting sick on the larger jumps and attempting backflips and what-not. I'd probably just be going for the little tacker jumps. Other than the dirt crits on a thursday at westgate park there's not a lot really in the centre of melbourne so it is something to do during the week...
let me know what you all think.
