Default the noob at the back of the pack
Hi all -

New here and new to mt biking. Recently picked up a Haro Extreme X6 and ready to hit the trails. I am of the larger body types and need to work on my aerobic ability, but other than that I'm ready to roll...

What's up!

I'm here in Ramona and ride in Poway a lot. I have a Haro X7 (although it's built heavy and I try to only ride it downhill).

There's lot's of STR peeps in the area. Look for ride postings. Check out Bike Empire in Poway too. I hear their mechanic is HOT!!

Welcome from the California Desert!!
I'll be Old Town San Diego Wednesday night...looking for a night ride around 6:30pm...PM if you want to hook-up. I'm not super fast so you don't have to worry about keeping up.
