Any of you guys ever use, or know anyone who has used a mountain bike to hunt?
17-18 years ago it came to mind that it might not be a bad idea when I realized that I was jumping game left and right. Sometimes even passing close by without deer and elk even noticing I was there. I never did give it a go, but did eventually run into a guy from Boulder who had a bike set up for hunting. Had had purchased a decent used mountian bike, (not some 45 pound Wal-Mart piece of junk) painted the whole thing O.D. green and brown (even the wheels and tires) and fabricated a rack for his bow and other gear. He even had a B.O.B trailer (a single wheeled bike trailer that clamps onto the seatpost) for hauling in extra gear and hauling out meat. He said that he' d had great fun and success with it. Not a bad idea really if you want to cover more ground quickly and quietly and have a quicker means of getting meat out. Certainly a good alternative to the noise, stink and destruction of ATV' s and less care than a horse...you would however, need a good set of legs and lungs.
