Hey, first of all. Let me apologise if this is in the wrong section of the forums. First time on here.
I'm looking to start up in the downhill mountain biking scene. I'm a motocrosser but i'm looking for a more accessable hobby to run alongside it. And after having experienced downhill a few years back at places such as Chick Sands, Cannock Chase, Sherwood forest and Glentress in Scotland (Glentress is amazing by the way, would recommend it for a great time)
Anyway, the bike I used back then was a Specialized Hardrock Sport (2007 model I believe - http://www.evanscycles.com/products/specialized/hardrock-sport-2007-mountain-bike-ec014252#features)
I'm coming into the sport not knowing alot about it and i'm overwhelmed, the bike felt good but i'm wondering if it is a right choice to start with? Unfortunately due to the fact i'm a student with no job (College really can drain peoples time - I do try though) I only have roughly £250 - £300 max to spend on a bike. 2nd hand bikes are an option but I need to find out more before I go spending my lifes savings.
