    Hey I'm Brian and I recently moved to Aliso Viejo. Looking forward to finding some people to ride with (and drink beer with).
    Time change in a week should allow for some afternoon rides but I'll mainly ride on the weekends.
    I race cyclocross but want to start getting into XC racing and some endurance events too!

    Glad I found this site!!!

    Welcome Brian! I also mainly ride on weekend (Saturday) but I am on the slow side. I have not been to Aliso for a long time so may be you can show me around.

    Welcome from Ladera Ranch. There are many trails here that are best enjoyed on a single-speed.
    Come join me sometime.

    I just built the SS last week and that's currently my only mountain bike. Might need some time to get used to it!
    skflow - will definitely join because I don't really know what trails would be best! Thanks for the invite.

    Ride almost every day?!? I'm definitely jealous. Are those all off road rides?

    Welcome Brian. Aliso is a great park, however, Santiago Oaks was built for SS. Please make a point of riding there; if you need a tour, I'd be happy to show you around. Orange has lots of great places for beer too! :beer:

    Work takes up my time in the mornings. Any afternoon rides? If not, lets get something going for the weekend!

    I can ride just about any time but lets plan for Sunday. Park in Irvine Park/Lot 3 @ 9:00am. Parking is $5; I'll be in a silver Dodge Ram 2500 w black wheels. I don't SS that often so go easy on me. ;)

    Sounds like a plan! Hopefully it's dried out enough...
    Throw up the event and we'll see if we can get a little group going ;)
    I don't have too many SS rides under my belt so it's you that will need to go easy on me!
    Can't wait for Sunday.
