    I'm just getting into mountain biking. Started with a hardtail 29er that I've been slowly upgrading to be a bit more gravity-friendly, but will be going FS soon. Looking forward to future group rides and getting a hell of a lot better. Local Trail is PV Del Cerro, however I try to get to Santiago Oaks or Aliso Woods at least once a week. I also like the Kanan --> Corral Cyn section of the backbone trail. I've have some Moab and Mammoth Mtn riding scheduled for the near future that I'm looking forward to as well.

    Rock on gentleman: :bang:

    Actually, the screen name comes from my old MK3 Supra, but I've had many cars since then. It took a long time to become a member of SCRT, and tried with multiple screen names, e-mails etc... This is the one that was finally confirmed.

    Most recently I was racing a 997 C2S. I sold it as it wasn't the most practical daily driver, and I decided to move my adrenalin NEED to MTB. So far, no regrets. :)

    Albacore,

    We hit up Del Cerro every Wednesday night around 6pm, but haven't ridden with the large group that also meets up there (Peninsula Cycle Club).

    We use a lot of it at my work (Aerospace). I thought it was cool/different.
