    Mountain Biking Setups for Hunting?

    I searched and didn't see any threads dedicated to this topic... let me know if I missed them! I'm curious who uses a mountain bike to get into non-motorized access areas and what your setup is like?

    Yet another adult-onset hunter... hello from NW Oregon!

    Decided to take up hunting on my 38th birthday and couldn't be more excited about it. I've been pretty outdoorsy my whole life (lots of camping, hiking, and fishing), but only recently decided to get into hunting. My grandfather was pretty high up in Oregon Fish & Wildlife and was a hunter, but...
