Northwest Recreation

There’s a few good days for rides out there yet, fellow mountain biking enthusiasts.  Now located primarily near Walla Walla, Washington, I can balance Washington and Oregon better.  I plan to ride the Blue Mountains a few times before winter sets in.  But there’s one thing on my mind, the topic of which pertains to maintenance.  It’s called tune ups, and you’ll want to start thinking about one.

Tune ups do several things for you and your bike over the winter.  They keep everything tight and oiled, to prevent loose casings and rusting, and they also make sure your bike will be in good repair so you aren’t fixing things come spring.  Whether you do this yourself or take it in, remember to wash your bike and dry it well so you can put fresh oil in without it getting mixed with dirt.
