| - Do you want to be Radical? Do you want to get Hardcore? The hop on your homeskillet's pegs, or pedal yourself on down to Ray's Indoor Mountain Bike Park.
Why?
One of a kind facilities in the greater Cleveland, a very large park, ample bike's available for rental, friendly and helpful staff, guides all over the place for getting familiar with how to use the course that provide you with rooms/courses to get yourself familiar and comfortable before advancing to the next level of difficulty. I mean, if you have the talent, and a certain amount of fearlessness, there are plenty of places to get your X-games style tricks on.
Now to be clear, to get something out of your Ray's experience, you'll need to be moderate shape. I'm in shape and was able to go for just over two hours.
There's maybe 3 different types of activities at Rays
1) Courses with up and downs and turns that you go through quickly and provide the opportunity for jumps
2) Courses that allow you to hone your precision biking skills over various obstacles in a controlled and as safe as they come environment
3) Some rooms for insane freestyling and jump practice includeing foam pit to break the fall.
Now, you'll need to manage your own expectations, this is a semi-intense physical activity. You could eat sh-t, and injure yourself, but you decide how hard to push yourself. And I had no shame in walking the bike over particularly difficult obstacles until i was ready to plow through it like I was Dave Mirra.
All in all, full marks for Rays, I wish they had 6 stars for me to give. It's a little costly compared to other fitness activities, but this is a totally unique bike park in Cleveland, and out city is very lucky to have it.
Check it out yourself! You'll be living the movie Rad! A young, hot Laurie Laughlin is waiting for you down at Rays.
So what are you waiting for?
