Anyone here into Mtn Biking

Just picked up a new toy off eBay (first time purchase of a bike on eBay, transaction went well and got it for a steal). Being in Illinois the state of shitty taxes and corruption, I have only a few places to go for some nice single track. Kettle Moraine (WI) is an hours drive north and about the best, Palos Park (Southwest Chicago Burbs) is about 1.5 hours and just as good, just not kept up as well.

Would be interested in seeing some other bikes and rack setups.
