    Sounds like a decent idea.

    Maybe you're looking for video of a particular trail. You can search through the ride reports but there is no easy way to search only those that have embeded video or links.

    Personally, I would make use of a video specific forum.

    as more and more people get gopros and start editing it might be a good idea. maybe someone wants to post a vid but doesnt want to type out a full RR. like me! lol

    +1 on what OC Rider said.

    It might not even be considered a ride report since it just might be a short video of a section of a particular trail.

    I think there should be a new section accommodate all mtb videos, whether it be go pro, youtube, or other sites.

    The gp pro videos are portal to over exploitation of what little trails we have of SoCal, but they can also record ones own fate. I dont ride with one, just sharing my opinion.

    I think a forum section would get many more vids and traffic than that single thread that seems like its been lost in the shuffle. No new posts since April 2010 is just asking a Mod to close the thread due to Dead Thread Rival. I would really like a Video Forum here.

    Maybe the threads could be by region (OC, IE, San Bern Nat'l, Big Bear, etc.)
