Bikekinetix™ is the brainchild of Barbara and Peter Lynn, avid mountain bikers, it was conceived several years ago during a mountain bike ride. They both collaborated on the unique site design and graphics, information architecture and authoring of the website content.
When bikekinetix.com was launched, it was a first ever comprehensive online guide focused on mountain biking and mountain bike trails in the entire northeast USA.

Bikekinetix.com features mountain bike trails and bicycling resources in the Northeast and New England that provide a scenic, wilderness, historic or romantic experience for both the seasoned rider and novice. We are not about screaming downhills or tough, technical singletrack, although a few such sections may turn up on some bike rides. We enjoy recreational off-road bicycling on scenic mountain bike trails that travel through forests featuring wildlife and on historic rail trails that pass through covered bridges and quaint villages. Included are rides specifically recommended for the whole family.
We are deeply committed to promoting responsible riding, conservation and public participation in trail maintenance and trail access issues. A popular perception is that mountain biking is for the young and daring. Magazines, websites and riders “with attitude” are certainly out there. However, there is a growing subculture of “50- somethings” and others for whom mountain biking is a celebration of nature and history.
We appreciate a quiet ride on a trail through a forest along a cold mountain stream; a ride along cliffs at the edge of the sea; traveling through clouds of pink and white Rhododendron flowers in the spring, a trip back in history along an abandoned railbed or canal towpath or a challenging cross-country workout in a spectacular wilderness setting. If we are lucky, we may have close encounters with wildlife. There is nothing more satisfying to us than to see a moose appear out of the early morning mist or stopping to watch birds of prey soar on thermal updrafts.
These experiences and encounters make mountain biking special for each of us. Bikekinetix.com is all about helping to find the mountain bike destinations that will make it special for you.
