Im pretty new to this world but i have come to find im liking it alot! I Just picked me up a Trek Fuel Ex6 this last weekend and took it out. What a blast!! I live and work out of Carlsbad and would love it if anyone has any suggestions on some cool trails. Looking forward to hopefully meeting some of you and hitting the trails up.

Thanks for letting me into to this kick ass sport!

You're right, this is a great sport and addicting. I can't seem to stop building bikes, with 5 bikes in my corral, I'm still not as bad as some, right Rach?

Welcome to the sport! Enjoy the bike and make sure you wear a good helmet when you're riding around out there.

Also, be considerate of the other trail users, especially the hikers and horses, cause they dislike us to begin with! I usually slow down to a walking pace when riding by and give em' a friendly hello (even if they don't respond). Blasting by them at high speed, will just pee them off and get more trails closed (tho' if there's none of them around, I let it all hang out!!!!)

Two of mine don't count as bikes, as they're just frames...and, I still don't have a DH bike

Thanks for the info! I'll be sure and remember that while on the trails. I surely dont want to be the one responsible for getting another trail closed down to riders!

Hey Dago,

Make sure you check out Lake Hodges (can be easily accessed from the west side, just off of Del Dios by Hernandez Hideaway), which has some easier trails (and also a few fun things along the way), Elfin Forest, etc.

Also, it's really helpful to peruse Mountain Bike Bill's site for a plethora of local trails and info!

There's getting to be more and more of us SD riders around here

Check the "Trailhead" forums and "rides" section at the bottom of the home page for rides. I'm going to start posting the majority of my rides so others can join if interested.
