MTB places

Here's an (incomplete, in progress) list of places for MTB riding that I'm aware of.

You will find gpx tracks, photos, videos and descriptions for them on their pages.

To help you adjust your expectations: I'm riding a rather old hardtail GT Avalanche.

Regarding the difficulty level. It is based on this guide. Keep in mind that these marks are subjective.
