ebenke checking in....

I've made my way over here. It's great to be in active Mtn Bike site again.

Long Time experienced, all mountain rider, new IMTBT member. S OC area.

 

Hello there and welcome to IMTB!

There are quite a few of us in south OC on here... I'm in RSM, and frequently ride everything in reach. If you see a black Highball single speed out there, feel free to flag me down!

We post up rides pretty often, including some later afternoon/night rides to Black Star, Motorway or the Luge. Feel free to come on out.

 

Welcome aboard. Too bad there are no real trails near you.

Yell when you're ready for a challenge and we'll hit the FLoop.

 

Welcome.....we have a good range of riders here. Lots are very knowledable.

You should be able to find some like minded riders here, with the exception of ebikes and fat bikes.

 

I'm still a proud Floop Virgin.

 

Welcome! Noob here to imtb myself, but great group of peeps!! South OC as well.

 

Thanks All. I ride all the usual south county locations. Aliso, Laguna, Santiago Oaks, whiting/STT/Luge. SJT, HJ, etc. If the rain subsides I'll check in for a ride. I'm slow going up, but can hold my own going down.

 

Hey, @ebenke, glad you made it here, adding to the already respectable OC contingent. I hope to tag up for some social dirt – keep an eye in Trailhead for all manner of rides (many in OC), and don't hesitate to post a ride of your own. Cheers

 

Welcome @ebenke! I ride all them places you mention, and I am also slow up. I too hold my own - but way too often... I even ride an Intense. Kinda scary. Were we separated at birth?

But - am I the only one disturbed by the fact that you're only two letters away from ebike?

 

Crazy, it sounds like we need to plan a ride.

 

At the risk of a derail, you may be the only one who noticed.

 

Welcome from Corona !!!
@Runs with Scissors wait, did someone said "ebikes"? I'm ready !

 

No. No abominations to be seen here. Move along.

 

Apparently I used to ride Fully, or parts of anyway, when I was 9yrs old (circa late 70's) and lived of Laguna Road!

 

Obligatory bike and bike transport pic!

Old Pic. Bike where's more carbon and less chain rings these days

 

That bike looks entirely too clean. Perhaps there are psychological issues associated with it...

 

Welcome. I look forward to your tips at staying slowing going up. I am worried if I progress any further I might lose that trait.

Edit(dang!!! I am just cranky because I did not get to pedal this weekend)

 

Exactly how much more carbon can you put on that?

Oh... wheels of course. Well, I hope you transferred the reflectors to your fancy schmancy carbon hoops!

 

Yep, that was the day she was done, reflectors were torn off an hour later. Hoops are now carbon and bike is not always that clean. I've got a lot of riding ahead of me....

 

DYB FTW

 

Well..........
You have met some of the imtbtrails mtb menagerie.
Where thread derailment is practically mandatory... Ha ha!

Welcome to the zoo from Frazier Park, about a billion miles away...
