Thanks for this I took my bike to a bike shop this morning for a tune up. Hopefully it'll be done today and I'll be there tomorrow thank you!

That might be a GT Zaskar. And I hope you also bought yourself a helmet.
You might want to meet up with someone who knows the beginner trails in your local area first, and get use to the bike and how it handles on the trail.
The one thing you don't want to do is head out to harder trails and perhaps injure yourself right at the very beginning of your riding experience. Which is not uncommon, unfortunately.
One of the cool things about trail riding is all the different types of terrain you can encounter. But... It takes time to learn how to ride it all safely. And enjoy it.
What area in Austin are you located?Also downtown Austin sorry. Whitley apartments

Sorry zaskar and absolutely I want to meet up with someone first. The freeride512 seems like it was a bit more group oriented. I just moved here Monday and don't know anyone yet. Figured I'd get into mtb. Thanks for the reply. Any suggestions where I can get to know my bike. Gonna buy a helmet tomorrow morning. I'm fairly athletic and comfortable with scary things, so I'm trying to find somewhere with some sort of thrill rather than just flat land. Thank you for.your reply!

Brand new to biking. Just bought a 2013 Kaskar 9r comp today want to ride tomorrow if possible. I found out about the freeride512 guys is that still open? And if so am I able to buy the membership and ride tomorrow?
Edit: thank you for everyones advice. I went and rode with a Meetup at Walnut Creek. Had a ton of fun. Gonna stick to the easier stuff for a while until I learn the ropes. Thanks so much. Hope to see y'all out there.
New biker help please

Went and got a helmet this morning. I'll pick up some gloves to thank you. Only reason I said freeride is because they had a beginner session. Going to the Walnut Creek beginners session tomorrow if my bike is done with it's tune-up by then. Thank you for your response!
