Default My Goodness!

You're all so busy in here with all these great trips coming up I wonder if poor li'l ol' me will even be noticed! I declare! (bat eyelashes!)
Lucky stiffs!Doing Noble,Mammoth, and N*. Wish I could go to any one of those! Anyway, I've been peeking (lurking)around in here off and on for awhile now and I decided it's time to come out to you. I live in the Marina Del Rey area. Recently I did a couple mtn bike trips and decided to get back on the mtn bike more often at home. It seems I ride my road bike a whole heck of alot! I need a larger network of people to mtn bike with though! I'd like to join you for some rides when time permits. I uploaded some photo's of my trip and I hope you like them.
Liz

and howdy. Somehow I think your trip makes Noble Canyon look like a walk in the kiddie park. Nice photos and welcome to the group.

Awesome photos.

That's not Marina del Rey, though

Default Thanks!

Sorry for the lack of response. I'm working then flying out the door to my moms who lives 45 minutes from Noble but she would KILL me if I left her all day to ride tomorrow. I'll upload more pics later and perhaps a ride report. How 'bout eat sleep ride? Oh, I guess that's been done! The place is Zermatt Switzerland. August 18th to the 28th. Yeah, Awesome. It goes into my top ten trips ever. I have about 20 trips in my top ten though. And about 50 best trails ever in my top ten ever!! I wanted to mention my favorite places to ride within 8 hours of L.A. are Downieville and BriansHead(which I can never spell).
Anyway, Ciao!!

What kind of mom wouldn't?!

We stayed at my mom's earlier this year before our Palm Canyon epic. The good thing is that mom's make *really* good dinners the night before rides!
