It's the reaction I was expecting...

they had a section where many people had put information about biking in other countries and a few places in USA, but nothing on California.

So I contacted them and wrote a short description of the areas, parks, trails with links.

the title is " Paradise for Mountain Biking all year long"

Hey Serge,

Nice article. Lots of good information and links for our friends up North. I had to stretch the brain cells a bit to reach back to High School French but I think I got the jist of it. And yes it does rain a little in Dec to March but we got some a little early like today.

That's nothing. Check out what Google did to the Cleveland National Forest link in your article.

I am sorry, I talk about what I know. I have never had the chance to ride the loop.

And you call yourself an Orange County Mountain Biker?!

I tried to figure it out in French, and then read the translation to see what I missed.
Very nice article Big!
