Do You Mountain Bike?

i haven't ridden my bike in about a year but i'd go on some barf rides. singletrack it great. i like to get all the climbing out of the way early so its all downhill. sucks to have a great pace interrupted by some uphill pedaling...
 
davidholcomb: Thanks for the offer! I'll def. be hitting you up for some scholarly advice and tips!




I would like to go for a ride, but do I have to wear those tight spandex?

Thanks for the e-mail. I wont be able to make it this weekend.:x You guys have fun:teeth
 
Holy Crap!!!! :wow :wow First time out mountain biking today, and I saw a freakin mountain lion!!!!!
Was going down a trail off Skyline (parking lot where that "City of Palo Alto" sign is, but on the Santa Cruz side, about 1 mile down that trail).

Came around a corner, and about 50ft ahead of me, I see this large tan cat jump off the trail and into the brush. :wow
Was probably about 3.5-4ft long, and only saw it for a second. But it was enough to start me pedaling the other way pretty quick. :blush

HAHAHA same thing happened to me in Palo Alto. Shits kind of creppy huh?

How big was the lion you saw... usually if they're small they're not much danger to you. probably more afraid of you. but if you ever see one this big... get ready to fight.

:wow Nah, not that big. Maybe 4ft long at the most. Went to the CDF station and reported it.
