This group is for intermediate to advanced cross-county riders to get together for some great rides and mountain biking trips. I want to keep the rides small, as I don't really enjoy going on rides with large groups of riders.   People joining this group should be established riders with a good fitness level and an average technical riding ability. People will not be dropped on rides, but I also don't want people to have to wait excessively long periods of time for beginners.  With all that said …

Although the core activity will be bicycle riding, occasionally we'll throw in a different outdoor activity just for the fun of it.

These are extreme examples and do not happen all the time - we do many things in between but these are some the things we keep as our target each month or in regular intervals. Hope to see you soon at some place.

It was during the dinner break during the final day of the seminar that I conspired with Paul Schutzman and Mai-Ling Garcia -- two of the very cool people with whom I'd made a connection during our th …
