bigquotesEvery year, one major goal of mine is to travel as much as possible. When Jeff Lenosky and Native Eyewear gave Adam Hauck and Myself the opportunity to end 2011 with a road trip down the East Coast of the US to Florida I couldn't pass up the chance. You might not think of Florida as a mountain bike destination since there aren't any huge mountains, but there's a great biking scene! It's amazing to watch as mountain biking and cycling culture slowly grow in the US, even if its below sea level. -Nick Brandreth

 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH HECK YEAH BABY!!!
Santos Vortex getting REP!!!
That's basically our only real freeride area left, and it is SO good to see it getting exposure...
Maybe people will believe me when I say we do have jumps (and drops, not pictured) here in FL!

 Great article, awesome exposure for our trails. So stoaked to be apart of the scene. Fellow riders; In the winter this is the spot to hit if you want to enjoy warm weather, sunny skies, hips, lips, and burly beaches. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Santos-Trails/114499691946893 -Miles

 Creative video. Totally cool to see Santos get some rep time. I must say it is very interesting cutting footage of Philadelphia's FDR skatepark in with Santos.

 The park is called FDR and its in Philly. If you go watch out for the skaters they don't care much for bike riders.

 When OMBA partnered with IMBA in 2005 to build Santos, I knew we were gonna' have somethin' special. What it has turned in to today, with the help of the new generation of shredders, is what you catch a glimpse of in this vid. Thanks to the rippers who've picked up the shovels and kept the vibe alive....Y'all know who you are, no need to mention names. Ride on gentlemen, ride on. (p.s. hope to see y'all at the fat tire this year)
