Back into riding, loving the SS

[Dismay]

What's up!?

Met a guy named Jeff on a Niner in Aliso today - he told me about this forum. Looks like a pretty cool group, and I'm always up for new friend/rides/excuses to drink beer.

I'm an ex-roadie (crit racer), haven't ridden regularly in a long time, but just got a new SS 29er that's making me into a climber and it's got me jonesing for the trails. Only available to ride on Mon/Wed, but hope to meet some of you guys as time goes by.

Glad you could make it.... The more you poke around here the more you are going to get hooked... We have a solid group of trash talkin smart asses that will do just about anything to ensure the success and safety of others out on the trail... You will eventually get all the rules from our good friend Boats... and look out for Slim he is a terror...

Dude...your bike is a SS, but how did the person you got it from convince you it was a 29er?



But I can respect how you're kickin' it ole skool with the banana seat. Can't wait to see you climb with that thing!

Always good to welcome another member to the tribe...especially if he rides a 29er SS. You'll run into me sooner or later. I patrol at Aliso Woods on a black Curtlo 29er SS.

Hope to see you on the trail.

Welcome to the group. I work graves so I can ride just about any day of the week provided enough of a heads-up. I ride Aliso often, so PM me if you want to ride. Wed works for me. Thurs is The Fully Loop and Tea Party. Check the calendar for rides. See you on the trails.

[Dismay]

Thanks, guys. I'll be out at Aliso tomorrow (Monday) at 5:45.

Looking forward to meeting up if anyone's out there. I ride a red Bianchi SS- give a shout out if you see it.
