I usually ride road, but I've been wanting to try mountain biking too...it just looks like so much fun and I'd like to mix it up a little. My LBS has a 2009 Jamis Durango 1 and 2 for a good price and it includes tuneups for LIFE. They're good guys. Any opinions about Jamis Durango as an entry level mountain bike? Any other recommendations?? Thanks!
