Long time local, looking to get back into the local biking community.
Hmmm, lets just say I have been around. The only major local ride I have yet to try is the new South Fork trail from Cronin to Skunk Hollow, scratch that- done.
Local- Auburn, Stanford Rock, Mr. Toads. Not local- Whistler, Black Rock, Moab, St. George. On the trip list this year is Fruita, BlackRock, Colonnade, Post Canyon? Let me know if you want in on any informal trips.
Having more people to ride with more often.
The net
Yes
It's a great melting pot of skill levels and rides. There is lots of helpful advice for almost every aspect of the sport, don't be shy, ask questions, learn as much as you can. Above all, get out and enjoy the ride!
