    Mountain biking

    I have rarely ridden through a coal mining ghost town that gave me such a clear imagination of the life that went on there nearly one and a half century ago. Riding across the Denniston Plateau ranks among the most thrilling moments i have ever had on my bike. Because of the terrain, of the beauty of the place, of all those memories there that you can sense- it's unique.
